Dogs for Adoption in Fall River, MA: 30 Dogs Looking for a Home

Paisley came into a pound in MS pregnant. All her puppies were weaned and adopted. Paisley was heartworm positive but she has been treated successfully and now she's ready to travel and find a family of her own. Paisley is crate trained, leash trained and appears to be potty trained. She loves puppies and gets along with other dogs. But if the other dog is too pushy she will put them in their place with a "leave me be" snarl. Paisley can be timid at first but warms up quickly and LOVES people and attention. She has been cat tested and is friendly.

soft brown coat and white paws that will make you want to cuddle her all day long. She has beautiful brown eyes that radiate kindness and warmth, despite her initial shyness. Coco is a bit hesitant around new people but it only takes a treat or a few minutes, and then she warms up quickly and becomes a playful and affectionate companion who loves attention. She enjoys the company of other dogs and loves to explore her surroundings. Coco was taken from a hoarding situation in KY but it hasn't dimmed her sweet demeanor. She is pregnant and due near the end of October, so would be available for adoption after her puppies are weaned - just after Christmas.

If you're looking for a loyal and endearing companion who will bring joy to your life, Coco is the one for you!

If you are interested in adopting her, please fill out an application on our website www.fohari.org and email my foster parent Karen Hogan for more information:

Petey is 12 years old, a rat terrier mix, and he's had the benefit of great care and socialization for his entire life. He's gentle, well mannered, great with other dogs, and he meets people well. Petey loves car rides, naps, treats, and getting affection, and he settles in nicely to new routines. He's pretty quiet and sedate most of the time, but there are two things to get him going – one is food! Petey has a hearty appetite and jumps around like a puppy when he knows he's going to get a treat or a meal. He's also crazy about balls! He loves to play with any type of ball and loves to play fetch, but he has not mastered the "bringing the ball back" concept but he will play all day with a ball.

He's a little hard of hearing, but otherwise very healthy for a dog his age! He's also neutered and entirely up-to-date with vaccinations and vet care. We're told that he's not a fan of cats and we're looking for a cat free home for him. He would also probably be happiest as an only pet because that's what he's used to. He's very submissive with other dogs, but does seem intimidated by the other dogs in his foster home even though they're much smaller than him. He doesn't cause any trouble or have any aggression, but it does seem that other dogs make him nervous, especially when they play together.

Petey is looking for a quiet home where he can relax and enjoy his golden years, and he's going to be a wonderful companion for someone who loves older dogs as much as we do.

Meet Knight. This senior boy has had the benefit of lots of love for his entire life but unfortunately, the family he was raised with had some changes and one of the resident dogs became highly aggressive to him. His former owner made the heartbreaking decision to surrender him to rescue for his own safety, and we've brought him into foster care. He is a Boston/Pekingese mix, and an absolute, sweetheart! Knight is very well socialized and meets people well, he's great with other dogs, he is loving, affectionate and a really nice dog. We've gotten him to the vet to get him up-to-date on shots and have scheduled his neuter, and he's looking for a safe and loving retirement home.

Cookie gets along with other dogs, but she is high energy and can play intensely, so she should be closely monitored with dogs significantly smaller than she is. She also has a

high prey drive

and is not suitable for a home with cats, rabbits, or other small animals that roam freely. Contained pets such as reptiles and securely caged birds are fine.

On her first day in foster care, Cookie experienced a seizure. There were several unusual circumstances that may have contributed. She had just experienced a stressful transport and major transition, it was an extremely hot day, and dehydration or overheating may have played a role. Immediately beforehand, she slipped on the stairs and was caught before falling, so

she did not hit her head

, but the sudden scare and physical stress preceded the episode. The seizure involved thrashing, paddling and drooling. She recovered well, was back to her normal self within about 20 minutes, and has had

no additional episodes or concerning symptoms

since. Because her previous medical history is largely unknown, we can’t know whether this was an isolated situational event or something that could recur, and her adopter should be comfortable monitoring her and pursuing veterinary care if needed.

Cookie isn’t recommended for very young children simply because her enthusiasm includes jumping up, and she could accidentally scratch or knock over a small child. She can also be a barker when left alone, so an apartment or other home with shared walls may not be ideal.

Cookie doesn’t need a perfect history to be a wonderful dog. She needs the

right home

: one that appreciates her energy and affection, understands the things we’ll never know about her past, and is prepared to give her the happy, secure future she deserves.

He is working on leash walking and housetraining. He will sometimes use pee pads, but accidents should be expected as he continues to learn this new skill.

He can still be very timid and is considered a flight risk until you get to know each other. He should be kept securely on a leash or in a safely fenced yard.

More than anything,

Mark Anthony loves the simple comforts he is discovering for the first time.

He enjoys relaxing in his bed, playing with toys and, when he feels comfortable, snuggling up beside his person on the couch. Watching him slowly learn to enjoy these little moments is incredibly rewarding.

He has recently been diagnosed with hypothyroid and will need a small dose of an inexpensive medication daily for the rest of his life.

Mark Anthony also has skin allergies and needs either regular meds or shots to keep his licking and itching at bay.

Mark Anthony needs a patient, compassionate, and understanding home willing to let him progress at his own pace.

He has already come so far in such a short time, and we can only imagine how much more he will blossom once he knows he is home.

With time, patience, consistency, and lots of love, Mark Anthony has the potential to discover just how wonderful life as a cherished family member can be.

Ace has arrived in RI!! He acts like he has always been here. He is outgoing, loves people including young children. Ignores cats and is great around older dogs. Younger dogs seem to be a little too much for him. He is fully potty trained and acts like a big dog in a tiny body! He does have some separation anxiety but is not destructive. He would do best in a home with someone who can be with him most of the day. He loves hiking, car rides, going anywhere and everywhere with his people. He does need a home where he can share a couch and a bed at night with. If you are looking for a little shadow who just wants to be loved, Ace might be the one for you!

Ace successfully treated heartworm treatment in MS and is ready to find his forever home.

Scooby does resource guard his bones, so mealtime and special treats are best managed appropriately. He and Pepper have always been the only dogs in their home and would love to remain the center of someone's world. However, they could happily live with another respectful, easygoing dog that understands Scooby's boundaries and won't interfere with his prized bones.

Scooby is a healthy little guy who recently had a dental procedure that included 13 extractions, along with a full blood panel and removal of a small growth on his chest. He has recovered well, is up to date on all vaccinations, and is microchipped.

Meet Pepper

Pepper likes to stay fit by chasing squirrels and chipmunks and enjoying long walks on leash. When he's finished with his daily workout, his favorite place is curled up next to his person for a good snuggle.

Pepper is a healthy little guy who recently had a dental procedure that included 18 extractions, along with a full blood panel and removal of a large fatty tumor. He has recovered well, is up to date on all vaccinations, and is microchipped.
