~*~ CAN.T MAKE A LIFE TIME COMMITMENT TO A DOG BUT WOULD STILL LIKE A CANINE COMPANION? WHY NOT FOSTER?! ASK US ABOUT OUR FOSTER PROGRAM AND HOW YOU CAN BE A FOSTER PARENT FOR A 4 LEGGED LOVE PET. ~*~
Many wonderful medium-large, older and special needs dogs who need foster homes until a forever home is found. If you are able to provide a foster home for a dog with separation anxiety (does not like being left alone), larger dogs or a senior dog who may take longer to place then let us know! They need your help! Dogs need foster care for as little as two to three weeks and as long as four to six months or more. All dogs are vaccinated and vet checked before placed in a foster home. Email us at dogs@4leggedlove.com for a Foster Home Application.

Rosebud - Golden Retriever/Yellow Lab mix

female, spayed, vaccinated to date inclu. Rabies, dewormed, tx flea preventative, heartworm tested (-), ~1yr, ~50lbs


Rosebud is a very sweet girl who is very unsure about all the change happening in her life. She really loves attention but is so shy at the moment, it has taken her a few days to really warm up to her foster family but she is coming around. She is quite lovely and snuggly when she warms up. Rosebud is great with other dogs, cats and respectful children over 5yrs - we feel that she would have a difficult time settling in to a home with louder more rambunctious young children. She loves a good chin rub or ear rub. She walks nicely on the leash and is house trained and crate trained. She finds security in her crate and likes to sleep in it at night and when left alone. Rosebud is best suited to a more mature home. She would love to find a house with a fenced yard.

If you are interested in adopting a pet please submit a 4 Legged Love Adoption Application. An application must be submitted before an appointment can be made to meet/adopt a pet.

Corey - Spaniel mix

male, neutered, vaccinated to date inclu. Rabies, dewormed, tx flea preventative, heartworm tested (-), 4-6yr, ~25-30lbs


Corey will need regular grooming to keep his Spaniel coat free or matting and tangles. There really are too many good things to say about this guy, he is very social, he loves people of all ages, he is fine with cats and loves other dogs. He is so happy go lucky and energetic but not hyper - you wouldn't guess he was any older then 4. He is house trained and crate trained, he sleeps in his crate at night and when left alone but would likely be fine given free roam of his new home once used to it. He would fit just about any house hold, on his own or as a second dog. Corey would love a house with a fenced yard but would likely be fine in an apartment with enough walks and play time outdoors.

If you are interested in adopting a pet please submit a 4 Legged Love Adoption Application. An application must be submitted before an appointment can be made to meet/adopt a pet.

Shorty - Basset Hound mix

female, spayed, vaccinated to date inclu. Rabies, dewormed, tx flea preventative, heartworm tested (-), ~2yr, ~20lbs


Shorty is just that - short! She is probably mixed with Beagle and is short, long and low, she is smaller then a Basset and shorter then the Beagle but has the great temperament of both breeds. She is a hound so her nose can get the better of her, she should only run free in a securely fenced area. Shorty is good with other dogs and is fine with dog savvy kittys, she is respectful children. She is crate trained and house trained and needs to keep up a routine. She sleeps in her crate at night and when left alone and it would be best for her to continue on this routine until very familiar with her new family and routine. Shorty likes a decent walk each day and would love to visit the fenced doggy parks. Shorty is not a noisy dog, she howls from time to time (all hounds will!) but she is not yappy. For the most part Shorty is independent; she likes to be around her family but is not needy or clingy. She loves attention and loves to sniff, sniffing really is her passion in life (go figure being a Hound dog!). She likes to sniff her way around new places with her long ears in tow dragging on the floor, she's pretty cute. Her photos just don't do her justice, she is always trying to come see the camera person or sniff something! Come out and meet Shorty today! Shorty is best suited to a house with a fenced yard.

If you are interested in adopting a pet please submit a 4 Legged Love Adoption Application. An application must be submitted before an appointment can be made to meet/adopt a pet.

Frodo - Flat Coated Retriever/Collie

male, neutered, vaccinated to date, 4yrs, ~50lbs


Frodo's family has to leave the country and is very sad about having to leave Frodo behind.

Frodo is the perfect dog for a family. He is social, great with kids (lived with two small children), he likes other dogs and is currently in a foster home with a cat whom he ignores. Frodo is used to having little children crawling around and on him but as with any dog, kids and canines should always have an adult present! Frodo is house trained and does not need or use a crate. He is clean and quiet in the home and can be left alone for typical 9-5 work hours without problems. He loves to go for walks and is very obedient, attentive and easy to walk, he also knows all his basic voice and hand commands and a few extra! Frodo will clean up any tid bits left around by toddlers but does not beg and will leave the room if asked. This boy is really a family dog, he loves to be around his people and be part of whatever everyone is doing. He isn't much for a game of fetch in the park but LOVES to fetch the ball from the water in the summer! He'd love to sleep on the bed with you but also knows to sleep on the doggy bed instead, he also does not get on furniture unless invited. He likes car rides and visits to the park on a regular basis. Frodo enjoys about a 40min walk each day but wouldn't complain if you were out longer with him. This boy would fit just about any house hold. 4 Legged Love would really love to see him join a family with a house and fenced yard.

If you are interested in adopting a pet please submit a 4 Legged Love Adoption Application. An application must be submitted before an appointment can be made to meet/adopt a pet.

Kirby - Lab/Collie/Beagle

male, neutered, vaccinated to date, 4yrs, ~50lbs


Due to a change in family circumstances Kirby's family is very unhappy to have to find him a new home.

Kirby is an all around great companion for any family. He is great with other dogs and has lived with another dog, he gets along well with cats and has lived with a cat which he ignores, he loves kids and has also lived with young kids (1 &3yrs of age)! Wait there's more! Kirby is house trained and crate trained but no loner needs or uses his crate. He is fine left alone for the typical 9-5 work hours and is given free roam of the home. He knows basic commands and walks nicely on a leash - being a Hound mix Kirby should always be leashed on walks unless in a fully fenced area. He loves walks and play time at the park, he is used to socializing regularly at the fenced off leash doggy parks. He travels well in the car and loves to join the family when camping or at the cottage. Kirby also likes to talk! When he is looking for attention he will grumble and have a conversation with you - how cute?! Kirby just loves to be with his family and be involved in the daily life of the family and whatever they are doing. He likes to sleep on the bed but will easily move off if asked. He rarely barks unless alerting you to someone about to knock on the door. Kirby would be great as a second dog or on his own. (Thinking of adopting two dogs? Consider Sebastian who has been house mates with Kirby and is also looking for a home. They do not need to be adopted together). Kirby would love a family with a house and fenced yard.

If you are interested in adopting a pet please submit a 4 Legged Love Adoption Application. An application must be submitted before an appointment can be made to meet/adopt a pet.

Sebastian - Retriever mix

male, neutered, vaccinated to date, 3yrs, ~50lbs


Due to a change in family circumstances Sebastian's family is very unhappy to have to find him a new home.

Sebastian has it all for the perfect active family...he is good with other dogs and has lived with another dog, he is good with cats and has lived with a cat too, he has also lived with small children whom he adores! He loves being outside with the family whether it be on walks, camping or just in the yard, he loves being very active and just being part of the family. He is a very social dog, loves all other animals and people. He even adores the family cat that he would cuddle up to and sleep with, he would even randomly walk up to the kitty and rub noses. He is a very laid back and very sweet tempered pooch. He is crate trained and house trained but no longer needs or uses his crate. He is fine left alone for the typical 9-5 work hours and likes to have free roam of the home. He knows basic commands but could use a little work on the leash manners as he pulls on occasion when excited. He is very smart, and was just learning to catch a frisbee in the air at the end of last summer. He stays off the beds and furniture unless invited up. Sebastian Loves being outside with the family, he loves camping or going to the cottage and hiking - ANYTHING outdoorsy. He loves to swim! He would be a great companion dog for an outdoorsy family. Sebastian would be great as a second dog or on his own. (Thinking of adopting two dogs? Consider Kirby who has been house mates with Sebastian and is also looking for a home. They do not need to be adopted together). Sebastian would love a family with a house and fenced yard.

If you are interested in adopting a pet please submit a 4 Legged Love Adoption Application. An application must be submitted before an appointment can be made to meet/adopt a pet.

Axel - Chocolate Lab mix (possibly Pointer? or Beagle?)

male, neutered, vaccinated to date inclu. Rabies, dewormed, tx flea preventative, heartworm tested (-), ~10mos, ~40lbs


Unique looking boy who is a little over knee height, looks very much like a mini Lab with beautiful deep Chocolate Lab color markings on his legs and face. Axel is a friendly outgoing pup who is eager to meet his new family! Axel is good with other dogs, cats and respectful children of any age. He would love a family who can take him for training classes, though he is well mannered he could brush up on basic commands and house training after his stay in the shelter. Axel is crate trained and doesn't mind being in his crate at night and when left alone. Until he has a better recall ("come") Axel should be on leash when out for walks - unless of course he is at a fenced doggy park! He would be great on his own or as a second dog. This handsome, social boy is sure to get lots of compliments every time you take him out. Axel is best suited to a house with a fenced yard.

If you are interested in adopting a pet please submit a 4 Legged Love Adoption Application. An application must be submitted before an appointment can be made to meet/adopt a pet.

Buster - Standard Dachshund/Basset Hound

male, neutered, vaccinated to date inclu. Rabies, dewormed, tx flea preventative, heartworm tested (-), 10mos-1yr, ~35lbs


Buster's family left him in the pound when they no longer wanted him, he did not like all the strange dogs running by his crate and was there for not "showing well" in the shelter environment, for this reason he was to be euthanized. Buster is now happy in a foster home with 4 Legged Love.

Buster looks just like a Dachshund but is more "super sized" then the average Doxie. He still stands with his head under knee height, he is long and low to the ground and isn't even as big as an average Basset. He's quite a cutie that you just have to meet! Buster is such a super little guy, he can walk nicely on the leash (after you remind him), he loves people of all ages, he is crate trained and house trained. He actually likes other dogs too! He can be a little bossy when it comes to other dogs being around his food but over all he likes to play and run around with other dogs of all sizes. He is also good with cats and respectful children of all ages. Buster would love a house with a fully fenced yard but would be fine in an apartment with enough walks.

If you are interested in adopting a pet please submit a 4 Legged Love Adoption Application. An application must be submitted before an appointment can be made to meet/adopt a pet.

Tanner - Boston Terrier/Spaniel/Beagle type mix
(adoption pending)

male, neutered, vaccinated to date inclu. Rabies, dewormed, tx flea preventative, heartworm tested (-), 1yr, ~20lbs


Tanner is a bouncy little guy who is good with other dogs, cats and respectful children of any age. He would love an active family who has time to put a little effort in to further obedience training with him. He is friendly and social and loves to meet everyone. He rarely barks unless playing with the other dogs or someone is at the door. He is brushing up on his house training and is fully crate trained. He sleeps in his crate at night and when left alone. Tanner would make a great second dog or be fine on his own. Ideally he can find himself a family in a house with a fenced yard but he would likely be fine in an apartment with enough walks.
