✨ Meet Finny, a tenacious pup with a past that tugs at the heartstrings! This brave little warrior started his life in a rural shelter, where he faced challenges that most can only imagine. Unfortunately, his siblings weren’t as lucky and succumbed to parvo, but Finny refused to give up! 💪 He fought tooth and nail and emerged as a survivor, ultimately finding his way to a loving foster home in South Carolina before making the exhilarating journey north to New York for a fresh start! 🌟 Though he now enjoys the comforts of a foster home, Finny is still coming to terms with the shadows of his past. He may not trust men right away, but that doesn’t mean he’s not worthy of love! Due to his early experiences, Finny receives Prozac to help him feel calm around male figures. Remember, this isn't a "bad dog"; it's a pup who has spent his entire life in survival mode, simply searching for safety and companionship. 🐾💖 Finny thrives in a structured environment with clear boundaries and the kind of patience that only an experienced handler can provide. A female-only home would likely suit him best, but what he truly craves is compassionate leadership from someone who understands the journey of rescue. When he feels safe, his heart blooms. 🌻 He’s been in the rescue system his whole life, and it’s high time for Finny to find his forever home—a space where he can settle down, build trust, and enjoy the stability he so richly deserves. While his foster mom gives him all the love she has, she can’t continue the immense task of saving dogs like Finny without him getting his chance to shine. 🌈 Now, if you're just looking for an easygoing pet, Finny is not your guy! But if you're ready for a playful partner who will challenge and teach you, and then shower you with unconditional love, Finny is waiting for you! 🎉 Even sweeter? His adoption fee has been fully sponsored—what he truly needs is a commitment from a loving, empathetic home.
