Cosmic Charlie is proof that sometimes the best souls just need a little time to feel safe. After what we suspect were many years of neglect and hard living, Charlie is finally discovering how wonderful life can be and he is soaking up every second of it.
Once he recovered from his neuter and dental surgeries and realized he was truly safe, his personality started shining bright. If food is involved or the answer to something is “yes,” Charlie breaks into the cutest little twirl and occasionally sings his own happy song. He prances through the house like a tiny gentleman on a mission and happily follows his people from room to room like the world’s cutest shadow.
Charlie is an easygoing little guy who has settled beautifully into a home routine. During the day, he lounges nearby while his foster dad works, and he’s learning confidence through gentle guidance and clicker training. Every new little milestone feels huge for this sweet boy. His foster family was thrilled the first time they finally heard him bark because Charlie is such a quiet little gentleman.
He’s beginning to grow more comfortable around the other dogs in his foster home too. While they’re not quite playmates yet, they happily share nap spots and peaceful companionship. Charlie is also doing wonderfully with potty training and quickly figured out that outside potty trips earn treats. Smart boy.
Charlie loves attention, soft blankets, pellet ice, car rides, going outside, treats, lap sitting, and simply being close to his people. He’s a world class snuggle bug who is still learning how to “dog,” and honestly, watching him discover joy is pretty magical.
He would do best with someone patient and loving who understands that trust is earned gently. He doesn’t enjoy being separated from his people and prefers kindness over rough play or tug games.
Cosmic Charlie’s adoption fee is $300 and includes neuter, vaccines, parasite prevention, dental care, and microchip.
If you’re looking for a sweet little old soul who will adore you with his entire heart, Cosmic Charlie may just be your perfect match.

Today is a very big day for Elliott. 🥰

This sweet boy is on his way to Auburn for the life saving heart surgery he desperately needs. We know he is in the best hands, but that doesn't make the waiting any easier. His foster family is on pins and needles as they wait and pray for a successful procedure.
Please keep Elliott, his veterinary team, and his foster family in your thoughts and prayers today. This little fighter has already overcome so much, and now he faces his biggest challenge yet.
You've got this, Elliott. We love you big time and can't wait to see you on the other side of surgery and on your way to a healthy, happy future.
Let's fill the comments with love, prayers, and well wishes for our brave boy.

Jett is fully committed to living life in fast forward and honestly would not know how to do it any other way. This guy is all about fun, zoomies, and making every single day an adventure. If you want a dog that keeps life interesting, Jett is your dude.
He loves to play and play hard, is obsessed with water, and would be the perfect hiking and camping buddy. Trails, lakes, creeks, tents, muddy paws included. He is always ready to go and brings big joy wherever he lands.
Jett is house trained, crate trained, and absolutely convinced the world revolves around him. He is smart, silly, and has a busy brain that needs both physical activity and mental stimulation. A bored Jett is a mischievous Jett, but an engaged Jett is pure gold.
He loves other dogs and would thrive with a playful canine buddy who can keep up with his energy. He does great with kids, just expect some happy bouncing because personal space is not his strong suit. He is affectionate, social, and full of personality.
Jett is looking for an active family who wants a dog that can hike all day, splash in the water, and then crash hard at your feet at night. Big personality. Big love. Big fun.
Apply to adopt at www.fullcirclerescueandsanctuary.com
Jett’s adoption fee is $300 and includes neuter, vaccines, microchip, and parasite prevention.

🏠 Foster Needed for Jake 🏠

Jake is a sweet Doodle mix who is desperately looking for a foster home. This handsome boy is great with other dogs, house trained, crate trained, and absolutely starved for attention and affection. He just wants someone to love him and spend time with him.
Unfortunately, Jake is heartworm positive and will be starting heartworm treatment in the coming weeks. During treatment, he will need limited activity and strict crate rest while he recovers. A foster home is critical to his healing journey.
The good news is that Full Circle Rescue & Sanctuary covers all medical expenses and provides supplies. All you need to provide is the love, patience, and a temporary home while Jake recovers.
If you can help Jake, please submit a foster application here:

Please share. A foster home could truly change Jake's life.

🎉 FIFTY SEVEN ADOPTIONS IN MAY! 🎉

That is 57 dogs and cats who are sleeping in their own homes tonight. Fifty seven animals who no longer have to wonder where their next meal is coming from. Fifty seven families whose lives have been changed by the love of a rescue pet.
Every adoption represents a team effort. Our fosters who opened their homes. Our volunteers who transported, cleaned, photographed, and loved these animals. Our adopters who chose rescue. Our donors who made medical care possible. Our supporters who shared posts and cheered these animals on every step of the way.
To say we are grateful would be an understatement.
While we celebrate these 57 happy endings, we are already working on the next ones. There are still dogs and cats waiting for their chance, still fosters needed, and still lives depending on all of us.
Thank you for helping Full Circle Rescue & Sanctuary make these 57 adoptions possible. Here's to even more lives saved in June!

🚨Emergency Foster Needed for Blake 🚨

Yesterday we received a message about a dog sitting on the side of the road with what appeared to be a broken leg. Our amazing volunteer, Stuart, immediately stepped up, set a humane trap, and after a lot of patience, we were finally able to bring this sweet boy to safety today.
We've named him Blake.
Blake will be heading to our veterinarian first thing tomorrow morning. Right now, we don't know the extent of his injury. He will need X-rays before we know whether his leg can be saved with a splint or if amputation will be necessary.
Unfortunately, while we are committed to helping him, we don't currently have a plan in place. We are completely full. Our foster homes are full. Our boarding spaces are full. Yet we couldn't leave Blake suffering on the side of the road.

We urgently need two things ❗️❗️
Donations to help cover Blake's medical care and diagnostics.
Venmo: https://www.venmo.com/u/Fullcirclerescueandsanctuary
Cash App: $FullCircleRescue
Donate online: https://checkout.shelterluv.com/donate/full
An emergency foster home where he can safely recover while we figure out the next steps for his treatment.
If you can foster Blake, even temporarily, please submit a foster application here:
https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/foster/FULL/Dog
Or email [email protected]
Please help us help Blake. Every share, donation, and offer to foster gives this boy a better chance at the future he deserves.

Thank you to Stuart for once again going above and beyond for a dog in need.
