We had a great adoption experience with FHDR and really appreciated the thoroughness of the adoption process. All of our questions were answered and the communication was very clear.
Thank you so much again for coordinating Doc’s adoption! Working with you was so smooth, and we truly felt you had the dog’s best interest and safety in mind. You have been so sweet and communicative during this process!
We chose to send our application to Furever Home Dog Rescue since we liked the idea of having a dog fostered in a home prior to adoption. Camille responded to our request for an application quickly and continued to help us with any questions we had via email. We did not know what to expect during the process but Camille kept us up to date on an almost daily basis, and when our application was accepted she was diligent and flexible in setting up a time to adopt Cayden, now Kylo. Everything about the adoption process was clearly for the best interest of our new rescue, and we would not want it any other way. Kylo has been a great addition to our family and we would go back to Furever Home Dog Rescue if we want to adopt a second dog!
Mia (coconut) is the sweetest girl. She just wants to please our whole family. I feel like she was meant to be with us, and she is part of our family now. Both my kids get so much joy from her, and she is so good with them, always following us around the house, and wants to be part of whatever we’re doing. I can’t say enough positive things about Furever Home Dog Rescue. This is our 2nd time adopting with FHDR, and both times went so smooth. Camille is wonderful, with the whole adopting process, from getting all the info from the adopter, to setting up the meet and greet, to making sure, everything is in order for the process of when you take the pup home. Thank you for allowing us to adopt again. Coconut will be loved her whole life.
As far as the adoption process, I thought it was extremely smooth! I remember Camille got back to me right away and was very communicative with us. It was also nice knowing that if we felt that Barkley/Doc wasn’t the right dog for us when we met him, that there wasn’t an obligation to adopt him. Even furthermore, I thought it was so important and special that Camille and the foster mom wanted to ensure that he found the family that was the right fit for him! Also, as a first time pet owner, it was so nice to have information provided on things to do to prep for Barkley, what to look out for, etc I would (and have!) recommended Furever Home Dog Rescue to others!
Thank you again for getting our sweet boy to us. When he was at the vet for his neutering, Mike said to me “doesn’t the house feel so empty without him?” and I totally agreed. He really fills our house and our lives with so much joy! We love him so much!
We really liked how the adoption went. All went smoothly & questions were answered quickly. The application was a good way to find the right people to adopt dogs. Certain criteria was asked about us & even pictures of our yard & inside home. Phone interview went well, where you really get to know the adopting people better. The foster mom, started the basic training skills & Amy/Flo knew “Come” and she came to her knew name quickly. She knew “Sit” & was quickly house broken just had to figure how how it worked in a new home. By day 3 she knew outside was where to go & which door to go to. She almost came pretrained, because the foster Mom had worked with her before we adopted her. So that was an added plus. Amy was a very good fit for us. She,’s loving her forever new home,& doing very well.
The adoption process through Furever Home Rescue was great. We feel that Maisey (formerly Hazy) is a good match for us even though she is a different breed mix than we are accustomed to. It was very helpful that she was in a foster home rather than a shelter, so she was already housebroken and fairly well trained by the time we adopted her. Overall, we were very pleased with the adoption process.
We are so happy to have gotten Millie, she is the best addition to our fur family! We thank Camille for the easy process, answering all our crazy questions, and trust in us as fur parents with Milo and welcoming Millie. We traveled almost 2 hours for a meet and greet and you worked with us on making arrangements to do so and you provided us with more than enough information. We are so happy to be able to spoil her for life ❤
The process to adopt Deki (aka Fonzie) was easy. The communication was crystal clear. Deki was without a doubt a perfect match for our family. We love this pup more than we can say. He’s just perfect! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
We had a wonderful experience with Furever Home Dog Rescut. We felt that the organization was truly invested in making sure Pecan (aka Lola) was placed in the perfect home, as they were very thorough and honest during the vetting process. My family is IN LOVE with our Lola and we can’t imagine our lives without her!
I think that Furever Home Dog Rescue stands out because they have fosters for the pups and I think this really impacts how the pup starts its life out in his furever home. Being raised by a loving family that teaches the pups beginning obedience and manners as well as socialization sets both the pup and the adoptive family up for success. It’s also really great how Camille is so available for help and support if needed. We always recommend FHDR to anyone that will listen to us. In our opinion, fostering and adoption is the only way to go!!
We would like to tell you how happy and blessed we are to have had the opportunity to interact with you during our adoption process.
From the moment we submitted our application to adopt Teagan, Camille was very prompt in responding, and her instructions were extremely thorough, and easy to understand. We especially appreciated that Camille would include very specific details, throughout the entire process, which removed any guess work on our part. Camille was also a great advocate when it came to looking out for the puppy’s interests, as seen in her many questions to us.She went the extra mile when our Veterinarian was having weather related phone issues, by making the call, not once or twice, but the times needed to establish the contact. Camille was informative, and friendly throughout. Camille’s special way of introducing us to Teagan, and her foster mom, was extremely pleasant, and we felt as though we had known each other for a long time. In the end we are blessed to have Teagan, who is now a part of our family, and has found her FUREVER home. We love her and she is doing GREAT! So thankful for your organization. Keep up the GREAT work!!!
I wanted to again thank you so much for allowing our family to adopt Bear and Teddy. We are all so in love with these two guys. They have brought so much joy and happiness to our family. Camille, you made the adoption process so easy, from the phone conversations and emails to meeting you in person. I truly can’t say enough good things about FHDR and I would definitely recommend FHDR to anyone looking to adopt. I also love that through Facebook, we can share photos and see their siblings. (Bear is without a doubt the biggest. lol) Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
It was a pleasure adopting Chewy from Furever Home Dog Rescue. It truly shows how dedicated Camille Oakie is to the rescue in locating the ideal forever home that will provide the best circumstances for the adopter and adoptee. Camille’s communication with me throughout the entire process was exceptional. She clearly communicated the mission and what I should expect throughout the process. I greatly appreciate how thorough of a background FHDR does to insure that the rescue will be going to a safe environment that will be conducive to a happy long-term relationship for the rescue as well as the adopter. Chewy is doing great in his forever home. Him and our other adopted puppy have become inseparable. He is the perfect fit for our family! Once again, I sincerely appreciate all that FHDR does for these rescues!
I’ve been fostering for Furever Home Dog Rescue for almost 2 years now and it’s been the most amazing, rewarding experience! Camille Oakie, the founder, has been there every step of the way for guidance and suggestions. After six foster pups, I decided to adopt through FHDR and Camille made the process so streamline! She was just as thorough with my adoption as she is with any other adopters. Camille’s compassion for dogs is shown through her ability to always find the perfect fit for each puppy and family. After adopting, I’ve fostered three more puppies and will continue to foster for FHDR in the future!
