sweet boys wandered into a couple’s yard looking for safety. That kind couple cared for them while searching for their family, but when no one came forward, our volunteer stepped in and Fetching Hearts welcomed them with open arms. Now, Blake, Willie, and Garth are ready to find their forever homes! Personality - All three brothers are pure lovebugs with happy, calming, and fun personalities. - They’re gentle, affectionate, and thrive on attention from people. - Whether it’s kids, other dogs, or a couple looking for a loyal companion, these pups will fit right in. Puppy Life - Still young, they’ll need families dedicated to training, socializing, and guiding them as they grow. - They’re playful, curious, and love outside time for potty breaks and adventures. - At this age, they’re eating three meals a day and need homes where they won’t be left alone for long stretches (no more than 2–3 hours). Why They’re Special - Blake, Willie, and Garth are not just adorable—they’re smart, gentle, and eager to learn. - They’ll do fantastic in homes with kids, other dogs to play with, or families ready to teach them new tricks. - Each one will grow into an amazing best friend who will bring joy, laughter, and unconditional love. You truly can’t go wrong with any of these country boys. Apply today to bring one home, and let your heart be filled with love, wagging tails, and endless puppy kisses.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
