About Fable

Hi, I’m Fable! 🦊 Yes, I really do look like a little red fox, and that’s exactly what makes people stop and want to meet me. I was found as a stray mama with my five puppies and pulled from a high-kill shelter. Life has already thrown a lot my way, but you’d never know it from how quickly I make myself at home. I’m being fostered in Seattle by a wonderful family. They say I have puppy vibes, and honestly, they’re not wrong. I’m energetic, curious, and always up for a morning run. I’m also just as happy lying quietly by your desk while you work or relaxing at a sunny outdoor patio while you catch up with friends. I adapt to your pace and likes to follow you around. I love meeting people and getting pets. With other dogs, I enjoy playing with some and am calm and unbothered around others. I’m still working on a couple of things, like jumping up and the occasional nip when I get excited. It comes from enthusiasm, not attitude, and I’m already getting better every day. I’m about 1 to 3 years old and weigh 39 lbs. I’m looking for an active home with someone who appreciates a loyal, attentive dog who just wants to be wherever you are. Please contact my rescue PawesomeBaby to plan a meet and greet! ✨🐾 You can find more photos and videos of me on Instagram: @PawesomeBaby —————————————————————————- About Fable: —————————————————————————- • Age: approx 1-3 yrs • Weighs 39 lb • Potty trained at foster home. • People friendly • Dog friendly You will be adopting a dog who got the care listed below - • Spay/neuter • Rabies, DHPP, Lepto, Bordetella vaccines • Either negative fecal test or dewormed • Wellness checkup, Heartworm, blood tests • Microchip registration with AKC reunited • Lots of tender loving care at amazing foster home!

Training Resources: ————————————— Regardless of who you adopt, we recommend training your pup regularly, to build an everlasting bond with your pup and help them continue to be an amazing canine citizen. We can provide a list of reputable trainers who use positive reinforcement methods to help you establish a training protocol and an everlasting bond with your newly adopted furbaby. —————————————————————————- [IMPORTANT] —————————————————————————- Below listed requirements are for any dogs we adopt out, meant for everyone’s safety. • If you have other dogs, then you must also be knowledgeable and have good hands on experience with running a multi-dog home to be able to adopt a dog from us. What’s expected of the adopter is just keeping basic house rules like (1) keep the dogs apart when feeding, monitor & put away left over food, (2) help them build mutual trust before leaving alone with treats, toys around (3) keep dogs out of kitchen when handling food etc • As with any dog, earn their trust around food handling. This is an essential training for every dog, so they learn to trust their new human. It takes only a couple of practice sessions around meal time with most dogs with no history of food guarding. Teaching to sit, then hand-feeding food & high value treats is one of the best ways to earn trust. • If you have children at home, they should be at least 8+ yrs, and know to safely & respectfully interact with dogs, to be considered for adoption. We think families with younger children will likely not have the time needed to exercise and nourish a new dog. And the time needed to train little kids to safely interact with dogs, read their body language & respect their personal space. Most dogs do not enjoy little ones clinging to them, pulling their fur, crawling or lying on them. We do not want to risk the safety of neither your child nor our dog. Follow @dogmeets_baby trainer on Instagram to learn more on this topic :-) Of course, we understand there are exceptions and some parents are on top with this. Please contact us if you are one of those exceptional parents :) • We discourage the use of choke, pinch, prong collars on our dogs. Training to walk on a well fitted no-pull harness is encouraged. All our dogs come with a “no-pull” harness. If needed for training, you can use humane collars like regular buckle collars, martingale collars or ‘gentle leader’.
