Friends of the Shelter Foundation

We are a nonprofit organization dedicated to finding homes for pets in rural Oklahoma animal shelters through adoption events and fundraisers. We're focused on the Newcastle animal shelter since that's where we're based, but we also pull from other rural shelters when we can. We have adoption events and fundraisers year round. Please visit our website to see where we'll be next on our calendar!

Meet Zander

**WE'RE A FOSTER-BASED RESCUE, NOT A SHELTER** Zander is a young Lab mix around 1-2 years old. He was found wandering in the country, but not microchipped and nobody ever claimed him so he may have been dumped.  He's such a sweet boy, but can take a moment to warm up to strangers. He gets along well with other dogs and has been doing well learning house manners. He has some separation anxiety as well, but that's also being worked on in foster care. If you'd like to meet or adopt Zander please first fill out the application on our website SHELTERFRIENDS.ORG  Processing can take up to 5 days, and then a volunteer will email you. Be sure to add [email protected] to your contacts so our messages don't go to your spam folder.  Thanks!

Adoption Process
Everyone must complete an adoption application first. Once approved they can meet the dog/s they're interested in. All of our dogs are spayed/neutered, current on vaccinations, dewormed, on heartworm prevention and flea/tick prevention. Our adoption fees are $100 for puppies under a year old and $75 for dogs over a year old.

Look for other dogs for adoption!
