On our walk, he was very timid, dropping and peeing instantly when we tried to pet him; but after many treats, he eventually let us and we immediately fell in love with this poor dog who had obviously been mistreated in the past.
Our next step was to bring our dog Lucki to the SPCA to meet Fletcher, the two of them became fast friends and we were all excited to add Fletcher to our family. Although still very timid, we were happy to discover he was a very well trained, very well-mannered, and very loving dog who just wanted to find his forever home.
It's been 2 years now since we added Fletcher to our family; we are convinced our yard would be over run with squirrels, lush with green grass and completely hole free if he were not here to keep things in order. He has continued to come out of his shell and has become a very playful and trusting boy. Always looking for a pat on the head and a hug, Fletcher brings us lots of happiness and love.
Due to his love of chasing critters in our yard, we were a little concerned about introducing Fletcher to the cat we brought home this winter. As I'm sure you can see from the pictures, we had nothing to worry about as Fletchy welcomed him with open paws :)
Thank you to the staff of the Brantford SPCA for taking such good care of Fletcher while he was waiting for us to find him. You are a wonderful group of people with amazing hearts, connecting animals with forever homes. We are very grateful :)
