HeiHei's Story

FAST FACTS:<br/>* 3 Months Old<br/>* Dog Friendly<br/>* Kid Friendly But 5+ Years In Home<br/>* Working On Potty Training & Crate Training<br/><br/><br/>Hei Hei is a playful, fluffy pup with a big personality and even bigger energy. He’s very dog friendly and loves to be right in the middle of the action—bouncing around, initiating play, and keeping things lively. He’s still learning his manners and can be a bit jumpy and nippy, so he’d do best with kids ages five and up who understand puppy behavior.<br/><br/>He’s a work in progress with potty training and crate training, but he’s making steady strides. He currently stays in a pen and is comfortable going into a crate for car rides or while his space is being cleaned. With consistency and routine, he’ll continue to improve.<br/><br/>Hei Hei is a higher-energy dog who thrives when he has room to run, play, and burn off that puppy energy. A fenced yard would be ideal for him, along with plenty of toys or activities to keep his mind busy—otherwise, he may find his own (destructive) ways to stay entertained. He’s also quite vocal, so a home without shared walls will be the best fit.<br/><br/>He’s already starting to learn basic commands like sit and down, and he’s eager to keep learning. Beneath all that playful chaos is a super sweet dog who loves being near his person—he’ll happily follow you from room to room and settle in once he’s had his fun. Hei Hei will make a loyal, entertaining companion for someone ready to put in a little extra time and love.<br/><br/>Puppies are cute, cuddly and looking for a family to call their own. They need an owner who is home often, and willing to help with training, socializing and housebreaking. They need to be let out often so they can learn to go potty outside. Training is required, and we will need to see proof from adopters that puppies have been signed up for classes. They need an owner to be committed to them forever, and in return they will reward you with a lifetime of cuddles, kisses and love. Sound like a commitment you're ready to make? Please fill out an adoption application and Fetching Tails Foundation will be in touch soon!<br/><br/>ADOPTION REQUIREMENTS, NO EXCEPTIONS:<br/><br/>*ADOPTION FEE: $450<br/><br/>* Must Live Within a 50 mile radious of Itasca, IL within Illinois<br/><br/>*Be at least 21 years of age<br/><br/>*Have the knowledge and agreement of all adults living in the household<br/><br/>*Have approval from owner of residence (written in lease)<br/><br/>*Have a valid ID with current address (please provide proof of address if ID address is not up-to-date)<br/><br/>*Be approved as a suitable adoptive home by Fetching Tails Foundation<br/><br/>*Be prepared to make a lifetime commitment<br/><br/>*QUESTIONS ABOUT OUR POLICIES?

Fetching Tails Foundation's Adoption Policy
1). All dogs listed on the website are currently available for adoption. We are volunteer-run and will do our very best to respond to your interest in one of our dogs within 24-48 hours. If you have not received a response by the 48-hour mark, please check your spam. 2). The decision to place one of our rescue dogs into either a foster home or adoptive home is not one that we take lightly. We reserve the right to deny any application and may not disclose the reason for denial. This decision is not made on a first-come, first-served basis, it is determined by who would be the best fit for our dog based on their personality in a foster home. 3). At times we have multiple applications on the same adoptable dog - and we reserve the right to stop accepting applications at any point when there is an overwhelming number of applicants for the same dog. This may be the reason you do not see the particular dog on our website or any partner websites, even after submitting an application. If an application is submitted, you should expect a response from us. Process Application – As a potential adopter, you will fill out and submit an adoption application. Your application will be reviewed by an FTF Volunteer, who will contact you within 24-48 hours of submission. Again, please check your spam if you do not hear from someone by the 48-hour mark. Meet If the application is deemed a good fit, the foster/volunteer will schedule a meet with the applicant and everyone in the household. All members of the application household, including dogs, will meet at a secured location decided by the foster and applicants. If a person or dog is over often, they are able to attend as well. Home Checks: After the application has been approved and the meet and greet has been done we will move forward with a home check. ** Please note, if you are in a rented home, we will be contacting your landlord for their approval prior to adoption. If the approval is not written in your lease, we will need written approval from your landlord. Contract If you are approved for adoption, you will be notified and adoption will be scheduled at one of two locations. You will fill out our adoption contract, which details our policies and procedures regarding the responsibility and care of the Fetching Tails dog. At this time you will receive proof of all vaccinations, the microchip number, test results, a rabies certificate, and any additional medical records, if necessary. Adoption Donation When you adopt a dog, you're not buying a pet. Your donation isn't a fee for your adoptee - it's a gift that helps us pursue our mission, save lives, and ensure we can provide care to all the dogs in our program. Senior dog. 8 years and up / $125 Adult or Young Dog. 6 months to 7 years / $375 Puppies. Under 6 months / $450 (Cash or check accepted only on adoption day) Care Provided At minimum, all Fetching Tails dogs receive the following: Fecal tests (and treatment, if needed) Age-appropriate Vaccinations Microchip, which will be transferred to you at the time the adoption is processed with our 24PetWatch chip Heartworm Test (and treatment, if positive) Spay/Neuter Surgery Flea & Tick Preventative (during the proper season) Heartworm Preventative (during the proper season) **Please note the following: 1). We are unable to make any guarantees of the future health, age, temperament, size, or breed of your adopted dog. 2). In the event that the adopter is no longer able or willing to care for the adopted dog, or the dog is no longer a “fit” in the home, the adopter understands that the dog MUST be returned to Fetching Tails Foundation. If the adopted dog is not returned to Fetching Tails, the Foundation has the right to subject a fine and if necessary, will take legal action. 3). Please read over your adoption contract carefully.
