Hi my name is Fred Fuquay, and I am a kennel tech at the HSHC. I'm 34 years old and developed a passion for animals when I was a young boy. I was inspired by my father who was a professional dog trainer / wolf breeder. Growing up I was literally raised with wolves. As I grew older I only found my passion growing even stronger. Working at the Humane Society has taught me a lot of different things. Some things for the good, and some for the bad, but all life experiences I will never forget. My hobbies include outdoor activities like fishing, kayaking, hiking, also shooting guns, and playing video games. My other passions are my friends, family, and pets Buddy & Phelps which I adopted from the Humane Society .

We really need canned puppy food!!
