Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Lara is a gorgeous Shar Pei mix, so so gentle. She was recued from the everglades on 1/5/2013, covered in sores and in so much pain. She was afraid to walk out of her kennel, seems she was beaten int he past. Lots of love will bring her soul back.

100+ Abandoned Dogs of Everglades Florida:
Rescuing, Reviving & Rehoming -----The Lost & Forgotten Ones
Right now, hundreds of abandoned dogs are roaming the Everglades of South Florida, hungry, thirsty, injured, sick, pregnant and more. They have been dumped there by their previous owners, often after being neglected and abused for years.
These poor, lost souls are left to survive in the harshest of conditions. They battle extreme heat and dehydration, endure mosquito attacks and tick infestations, suffer from heartworm and mange, dodge speeding cars, and fight off poisonous snakes, alligators and other wild animals.
Our mission is to rescue them, bring them back to health, and show them that not all humans are bad, and love and a warm bed are just around the corner. Beyond that, we work to raise awareness about this brutal reality happening right in our community, with the hope that our message will result in alternative solutions and more responsible and humane decisions by pet owners. We are a volunteer-only, 501(c)3 organization, fully dependent on our support community to fund our rescues and vet bills for these desperate pups. Please help us make a difference by donating, adopting, fostering and being a voice for these helpless animals.
We can't do this alone. There is power in numbers! Please Visit our Facebook page & website:
