Meet Rex!
Rex was originally adopted 6 months ago through HFP rescue. Unfortunately the adopter does not think it is the best environment for Rex who she believes would do better in a rural/quiet suburban setting as opposed to Berkley and urban city environment. Rex was adopted again 2 weeks ago, but is not being nice to the golden retriever in the home — we are looking for a new foster, foster to adopt, or adopter where he can be prince of the palace.
Prior to coming to HFP Rex lived with three dogs; he then lived w/ a HFP foster that had a dog; and his former adopter also had three dogs, but we think he would prefer to be the one and only now.
Rex would love a home w/ dog loving adults and a big back yard. His last adopter took him on lots of long runs which he loved!
Daily walks, jogs, in nature and a predictable schedule would be his ideal day to day life.
