My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Located near Tampa
Junior's story:

Junior was abandoned by his owner in a small trailer park outside of Tampa Florida. For more than 18 months he lived in a 40' x 40' yard. Some of the residents took turns feeding him whatever they had on hand. Sometimes table scraps, sometimes dog food, and other times Chinese takeout. He competed with the rats for his daily meals and slept in makeshift Kennels covered in their droppings.

Luckily for Junior, an angel living in the park convinced the park manager to release the dog to GGARR after seeing one of our rescue dogs on TV.

Junior may have had a rough beginning but he has made a complete turn around. He has become outgoing and silly boy. He is good with older kids. And loves tennis balls.


He is fairly independent and happy just to be in the same room as his master. He is eager to please. He enjoys chasing tennis balls and bringing them back to his master for another throw. He knows a few basic commands like Sit and Wait. He accepts treats gently and walks well on a lead with minimal pulling.
He has shown acceptance of mild-mannered dogs after proper introductions. He requires a home with NO CATS and OLDER KIDS.
