🐶 Meet Fiyero

Fiyero is a 3-year-old Terrier mix with a smooth reddish coat, soulful eyes, and a heart that’s slowly learning to trust again. Weighing in the 2–35 lb. range, this little guy was found as a stray on May 16, 2025 and is currently un-neutered.


🐾 A Gentle Spirit in a Loud World

The shelter environment has been overwhelming for Fiyero, but his spirit is beginning to bloom thanks to the company of other small dogs. Being housed with furry friends has helped boost his confidence, and his caregivers are now seeing glimpses of the sweet, curious pup he truly is.


💖 Building Trust, One Treat at a Time

Though initially timid, Fiyero is food-motivated and has started eating treats right out of a volunteer’s hand — a big step for a little dog learning to trust again. He enjoys running and exploring in the courtyard, and we believe that in a calm and patient home, Fiyero will truly flourish.

Currently, Fiyero is carried from place to place due to his unease on a leash — but with a loving adopter by his side, there’s no doubt he’ll master walking and enjoy adventures just like any other pup.


🏡 Ideal Home

Fiyero would do best in a quiet, understanding home—preferably with other calm dogs who can continue to show him the ropes. If you’re looking for a dog to nurture and help blossom, Fiyero could be the one to steal your heart.


📍 Come meet Fiyero at Animal Friends of the Valleys (AFV) and show this sweet boy that the world isn’t so scary after all.
