Psst. Hey, you, don’t overlook me in the Wine Country! My family calls me “Boy”. But, FFF calls me “Sweet Boy.” I like the way that sounds!

There are some photos that tell a story so completely. We think Sweet Boy’s face and the photos of his current living conditions convey what we could never say in words. Sweet Boy is an 11 year old rottie mix, and he is sweet as honey. His family thinks so, too. He is loved, and until last winter Sweet Boy was able to spend more time in his backyard. But, unfortunately, what little fence they did have gave way during the last winter storm, and so Sweet Boy for his safety is tethered to his kennel nearly 22 hours a day. But, so that it doesn't tangle, his tether is short. Too short. His family acknowledges that being chained makes Sweet Boy sad and them feeling horrible. He is sad, which will be clear when you meet him. However, if they don’t confine him, more times than not he manages to jump over the kennel, for a bit of a lengthy twirl, and a search & find around the neighborhood. And, he really likes neighborhood tennis shoes! Thankfully, Sweet Boy’s family recently learned about FFF b/c of a visit from animal control; understandably neighbors complained about Sweet Boy’s crying, which is not only very sad to hear but somewhat irritating as well. So, that’s where we come in, and we hope you come in, too? Jerry, Sherri and I are teaming up again in the Wine Country on September 12th. Sign up now!
