Foster-To-Adopt Dogs

If we had endless time and energy we would train every dog that comes our way, but the reality is that some dogs either don't meet our temperament requirements to be a part of our trained program and/or we simply don't have the time or space for them, but we want to help in any way we can. 

Our foster-to-adopt dogs are most often owner surrenders. If you believe one is a good fit for your home, you can take him/her on a trial basis (usually around 2-3 weeks) while we work on getting them spayed/neutered and up-to-date on vet care. If at the end of the trial period, you want to keep the dog, you simply pay us the cost of their vet bills (this can vary from $250-$700+ depending on the dog's needs), and the dog is yours! If the dog is not a good fit, you can simply return him/her to Red Paw Farm. 

​

We also very much welcome families simply looking to adopt dogs that are already up to date on vet care and/or families who just want to foster temporarily but not adopt!

These dogs have been started on our Companion Level Training.

Meet Hazel

Birth date: estimated to be 3-4 years old

Breed: Poodle Mix (DNA test coming soon)

Size: 45 lbs

Cost: $500 plus optional training package~ View all training options HERE.

​

Hazel found herself at Forsyth County Animal Shelter from a hoarding situation. She was in rough shape (flea infestation, underweight, etc.) but she is slowly turning the corner and we think she's going to be a beauty when her hair grows back in!

​

Hazel is still new and won't be adoptable until her skin is fully healed, but here's what we know so far... Hazel definitely did not have the best start to life and seems a bit unsure about humans but in spite of her timidness, she is incredibly sweet and gentle. She gets along well with our kids and other dogs and so far has no interest in the cat. She is definitely making progress with socialization (cue leaning in for pets and wagging her tail!) so we expect her to be able to adjust into being a delightful family pet/companion.

Meet Moto

IMG_1241.HEIC

Birth date: August 23, 2023 (2 years old)

Breed: Bernedoodle

Size: 48 lbs

Cost: $570 plus optional training package~ View all training options HERE.

​

Moto was returned to his original breeder due to fighting with the other male dog in his own. At the time, both were still intact. Moto has since been neutered which often curbs same-sex aggression but to be safe, we will only adopt Moto out as an only dog or with another female dog in the home. 

​

Moto is a happy-go-lucky guy who enjoys belly rubs, SNACKS, and fetch. He was raised with children and has done well with ours, too. He also does not seem to mind the cat. Moto can be wary of strangers- especially men so would need slow introductions with new people in the future but he has an abundance of love and tail wags once he gets to know you.
