Clea's Story

Age: 8 Months<br/>Weight: 45 lbs.<br/>Good with dogs: Yes<br/>Good with cats: Not Tested<br/>Good with kids: Yes - Older<br/>Energy Level: Med Puppy<br/><br/>Available for Adoption: 9/5/2026- Applications need to be approved before a meet and greet will be set up for any Fetching Hearts Rescue dogs.<br/><br/>Clea: Looking for a Patient Heart and a Forever Home <br/><br/>If resilience had a face, it would look a lot like Clea. This beautiful young girl has already endured more than any dog ever should. She was found after being dumped, severely underweight, dehydrated, and covered in fleas. Despite her difficult start, Clea never gave up, and neither did the people who rescued her.<br/><br/>The moment she was brought to safety, we placed her into a loving foster home where she could begin to heal, learn to trust, and finally experience what it means to be cared for. <br/><br/>Clea is still discovering that the world can be a safe and wonderful place. She can be shy when meeting new people and facing new situations, but once she warms up and learns to trust you, you'll see the sweet, loving girl hiding behind those cautious eyes. The bond you'll build with Clea won't happen overnight, but it will be incredibly special and worth every moment of patience.<br/><br/>We believe Clea would thrive in a quieter, calmer home. A confident, gentle dog sibling would be a huge bonus, as another dog can help show her the ropes and teach her that life isn't so scary after all. She enjoys following the lead of calm canine friends and gains confidence from their presence.<br/><br/>Because she is sensitive and still learning about the world, we recommend a home with older children who can respect her need for space and help create a peaceful environment where she can truly relax and flourish.<br/><br/>Clea will also benefit from continued socialization and training. The wonderful news? She's incredibly smart! With patience, positive reinforcement, and encouragement, we have no doubt she'll blossom into an amazing companion. This girl wants to learn, wants to trust, and wants to belong.<br/><br/>What Clea needs most is someone willing to give her three very important things:<br/><br/>Time<br/>Patience<br/>Lots of love and TLC<br/><br/>We see the incredible potential in Clea every day. Beneath her uncertainty is a loyal, loving, and beautiful soul just waiting for the chance to shine. All she needs is a family willing to believe in her.<br/><br/>Could you be the one to show Clea that her difficult past does not define her future?<br/><br/> Apply today and give Clea the forever home she deserves. Together, let's write the happy ending this sweet girl has been waiting for. <br/><br/>The best things in life are worth waiting for, and Clea is one of them.<br/><br/>If interested in Clea, please apply online: ADOPTION APPLICATION or email us at: Info.FetchingHeartsRescue@gmail.com.<br/><br/>Unless otherwise indicated, all dogs adopted through Fetching Hearts have received the following before being available for adoption:<br/><br/>Thorough veterinary examination.<br/>All routine annual vaccinations, including<br/>Rabies, DHLPP<br/>Bordetella (Kennel Cough)<br/>Heartworm Test<br/>Fecal Test, Deworming<br/>Microchip<br/>Flea and Tick Prevention<br/>Heartworm Prevention.<br/>Spay/Neuter<br/>All dogs are quarantined for two weeks outside of the shelter (puppies four weeks) to ensure they don't break with disease.<br/><br/>VETTING NOTE: Fetching Hearts Rescue completely vets our dogs thoroughly to the best of our knowledge based on communication with our Southern Vets.

Fetching Hearts Rescue's Adoption Policy
Apply for any of our dogs: https://www.fetchingheartsrescue.org/adoption-form-online Our team of screeners will process you application once received. This process typically takes a couple days to a week. Once processed, you will hear back from one of our team members regarding your approval status & next steps. The next steps typically involve scheduling a meet and greet if the dog is already in the state, or informing you of the transport process, date & what to expect. If all goes well during your meet & greet you will be able to take home your new family member. All meet and greets are held with the intention of adoption, but only if you and the foster agree that the dog is a good match for you and your family. We ask that you come to the meet and greet or transport day with a leash, collar, name tag (even with just your information on it, if you don't know a name yet), water, a few biscuits, and maybe a blanket or bed for the car ride home. If your dog has any special food, toys, a bed etc., the foster or volunteer will provide these to you. They will also have the dog's medical records and will review these with you before handing them off.
