Calling all Border Collie lovers!
Meet Benny, the brilliant 1-year-old Border Collie looking for his forever home!
Border Collies are known for their intelligence, trainability, and boundless energy, and Benny is no exception. This smart pup is eager to learn and thrives on mental stimulation and physical activity. Whether it's mastering new tricks or embarking on outdoor adventures, Benny is always up for the challenge!
However, it's essential to understand that Border Collies have a high prey drive, and Benny is no different. He wouldn't do well in a home with dogs under 20 lbs or cats, but he's dog-friendly otherwise. Benny needs a family who can provide him with plenty of exercise and mental enrichment to keep his active mind and body engaged.
Despite his rough start, Benny has made an incredible transformation. Found in a field with two other dogs in Ontario, Oregon, Benny was covered in fleas and ticks and very underweight. But thanks to the love and care he received, Benny is now healthy and ready to find his forever family!
If you can match Benny's high energy level and provide him with the mental and physical stimulation he craves, then he could be the perfect addition to your home. Benny is eager to shower his new family with love and affection, and with the right guidance, he'll undoubtedly thrive in his forever home.

Chugs is a delightfully fun and energetic boy who came to Fuzzy Pawz when his people could no longer care for him. This guy is not only sweet and fun-loving but equally smart as well! He learns quickly and is VERY eager to please. He looks for direction from his people as if to ask “What do you want?” or “Is this okay?” He’s house-trained and crate-trained, but would rather sleep in your bed if he was allowed. This guy is a true cuddle bug—he comes up and puts his head nicely in your lap for pets, and maybe if he thinks you won’t notice, he will attempt to crawl in your lap. You’ll notice, but sometimes it’s just too sweet to resist.
Chugs has not been exposed to many things in his young life, so can be fearful of new experiences and new people. He’s learning every day and making progress. Chugs can get very protective of the women in his life; he will bark/growl at anyone who gets close to his lady. He is young and eager to please and just needs a bit more confidence in the world around him. He will not do well with kids in the home; a quieter home life with slow introductions to the big wide world would be best.
He will cry for a bit when put in his crate but is not destructive. We will recommend he does not live in an apartment, since he can get kind of loud when he’s upset about being left.
Chugs is a big silly puppy that only wants love, attention, food, and play. What else is there? He would love a confident, happy dog sibling to play with who will tolerate his goofiness and sometimes overzealousness. He is big and still growing, so he might be too much for a small dog. His favorite game is tug, whether with people or a doggie playmate.
Chugs will be a wonderful companion for any active family; hiking, running, camping; he’s up for it. He has

Former FPR fosters Ruby (tan) and Daryl (B&W)- 2 of Lily’s 7 puppies from the summer of 2021- had quite the play date with Stanley! He’s continuing to learn to play from all his dog friends ❤️
Stanley is a rambunctious puppy who came to Fuzzy Pawz Rescue after the people he was with were no longer able to care for him. He was pretty little then, but he’s a fast-growing boy who is looking for his forever home! We were told that Stanley is likely a Husky mix of some kind, and we think that’s right based on his affinity for talking and verbalizing! When he is fully grown, we estimate Stanley will be around 50 lbs.
This sweet boy is all play all day. He is active, playful, rambunctious, and curious. He loves toys of every kind - the squeaky ones for wrestling, the round ones for keep away, and the rubber ones for chewing. However, when the weather is nice, the backyard is his favorite place for sniffing, play hunting, and finding sticks.
When playtime is over, he will zonk out just about anywhere but is most cozy in his crate. He sleeps through the night in his crate too without much issue. If given the choice though, he would love to snooze on the couch next to you or in your lap. He’s so soft and snuggly, so his foster mom is soaking it up while he’s little.
His foster family has been working on some training with him such as learning to play bite lightly (a work in progress), walking on a leash (he’s getting better!) and knowing what “no” means (doing pretty good!) . He seems quite smart, learns quickly, and takes direction and diversion well.
In his foster home, Stanley is good with dogs and cats, though he is still learning about body language and boundaries. He would do grea

Penelope Rose (Penny) is 12 years old, spayed, vaccinated, female
Pippen (Peter Parker) is 5 years old, neutered, vaccinated, male
BONDED PAIR – must be adopted together.
These 2 lovely Standard Poodles are pretty darn amazing whose human recently was placed into hospice care. Their human did a great job with these two and their loving nature is a testament to that.
Pippen is very energetic and likes to play fetch. Penny is more reserved and cautious in her old age, she enjoys a walk but is low-key. They both like sitting on your lap, laying in bed with you and LOVE to cuddle. They are both very loving and want to spend time with their human(s). Both dogs have been around children and do well with kids 6+. Neither dog is good with cats! Pippen has been through 80 hours of training left with Positive Pets Dog Training where he has completed some work.
Both dogs are house-trained, crate-trained and have great house manners. They are good with most dogs but Pippen can be a bit much for some dogs. Penny walks great on a leash, Pippen does well when in a halite collar (otherwise he pulls). Both dogs are in good health.
They will come with their dog beds, leashes, halite collars and their toys.
These 2 together give you the best of everything!
Meet Jack
Located in: Boise, ID
Breed: Lab/Hound Mix
Age: 8(ish)
Adoption Fee: $50
Jack is a wonderfully mellow dog with an amazing personality. He loves his ear rubs and chew toys but most of all he loves getting outdoors for all the smells and all the walks. He is great on a leash and leads the way with little redirecting.
He ignores other animals including cats which he has been wonderful with in his temporary home. He is not afraid to let you know when it is breakfast or dinner time and loves to root around his food puzzle. Everyone who meets Jack comments how wonderful and mellow that he is. He has lost some of his hearing but is adapting well to hand and body commands.
Jack is looking for his forever home and would benefit from a place that allows him to get outdoors frequently. He loves being around people and doesn’t mind other animals as long as they are respectful. He does have some allergies that are well-maintained with his medication which he takes without issue.

As we transition from winter to spring, it's the perfect time to enjoy longer walks with our furry friends in the warmer weather! Here are some springtime safety tips to keep in mind while out and about with your pet:
Leash Up: With the arrival of spring, more people and pets are out and about enjoying the sunshine. Keep your dog on a leash at all times to prevent them from running into traffic or encountering off-leash dogs.
Stay Vigilant: Be extra vigilant when crossing streets or walking near busy roads. With more cars on the road and distracted drivers, it's essential to keep a close eye on your pet and ensure they stay safe.
Watch Out for Off-Leash Dogs: While some dogs may be well-behaved off-leash, not all dogs are friendly or under control. Keep a lookout for off-leash dogs and be prepared to protect your pet if necessary. It's best to avoid interactions with unknown dogs to prevent any potential conflicts.
Stay Visible: As daylight hours increase, consider adding reflective gear to your pet's collar or leash for added visibility during evening walks. This helps drivers and other pedestrians see you and your furry friend, reducing the risk of accidents.
Mind the Weather: Spring weather can be unpredictable, with sudden rain showers or temperature changes. Be prepared for changing conditions by dressing appropriately and bringing along a light raincoat or umbrella for your pet.
Louie (already adopted) just got a new little foster brother Stanley!
Stanley will be posted for adoption as soon as they are available, but we wanted to sahre the cuteness!

Breed: Pug Mix
Age: 6
Adoption Fee: $50
This handsome gentleman goes by many names. Stumpy, AKA Sir Stumpington, Mister Sir, The Stumpmiester, Stump, Bubba Dub, Lord of the Underbite and many other absurd nicknames. This charming lad doesn’t care what he’s called, only that you’re talking to him.
Stumpy is a sweet boy with a delightful underbite and so much spunk. He is about 6 years old, with a nice blend of chaotic playful energy and a love of lounging and naps. He is the king of zoomies, loves to carry his food bowl around, and is notorious for stealing blankets off of chairs to add to his dragon hoard (his bed nest).
Despite all of his charisma, Stumpy is in need of a very special adopter who is patient, caring and willing to keep working through his quirks.
Unfortunately, Stumpy has some major beef with his butt. It may be neurological, behavioral, or trauma related, but Stumpy seems to not realize that his tail and butt are indeed part of his body. This leads him to squabble with his own booty on a fairly regular basis. He has been treated medically and there is no physical medical concern to his body that is leading to this behavior. He takes daily medication to help with stress related to this issue.
As funny as it may seem, it has left some serious consequences for him. He traumatically injured his own tail leading to an emergency amputation. Things that are normally relaxing and fun for dogs like: eating, kongs, and any food related enrichment, are quite stressful for him. He will resource guard any food related fun from his own back end. He does best when eating with a soft cone on that blocks the view of his behind. He does better if you watch him eat as you can verbally tell him to snap out of it and he also feels safer with you watching his back.
Stump was found as a stray and very little is known about his past. He was unaltered and was not potty trained upon arrival to Fuzzy Pawz and it is suspected b

About Kane:
Foodie Extraordinaire: Kane is very food-motivated. From puzzle bowls to vacuum-like eating skills, this boy loves his treats but never guards them. Share a mealtime adventure with him!

Ideal Home:
Kid-Friendly: Kane adores kids but would do best in a home with children over 12 who can respect his size and play style.

Ticklish Fun: Scratch him on the ribs, and you'll discover Kane's ticklish side.
Let's find Kane the loving home he deserves! Share, tag, and spread the word to help this sweet boy find his forever family.
