My story

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

Hi, my name is Bishop. I am almost 3 years old and weigh 78 pounds. I am a very large pup! A nice lady found me in the middle of a field and waited hours until I finally came to her. She took me to the vet for a checkup and they shaved me since I was filthy and extremely matted. I didn't have much socialization before coming to Paws which makes me difficult to handle especially due to my size. I need a patient home since I will take time to adjust, and I require training. The best home for me will have adults only without anyone elderly, and a big yard to play in (no apartments/condos for me). If you are looking for a longtime companion and have the willingness and time to work with me, then I'm the one. I've been at Paws4you for almost 2 years, way too long for a handsome guy like me! I can't wait to find my pawfect home. Adopt me!

ADULTS ONLY, NO ELDERLY. NO APARTMENTS/CONDOS.

Additional adoption info

There is an adoption application used as a pre-screening tool (available on paws4you.org/application), references are required and house visits are made by volunteers. We request a donation with every adoption which includes sterilization, microchip & registration, current vaccinations and a heartworm/ehrlichia test. The adoption donation covers the boarding and medical expenses incurred on all rescues, not just one.

More about this rescue

PAWS4you Rescue, Inc. is a non-profit, volunteer 501(c)3 animal rescue organization based in Miami, Florida. Our top priority is to save animals from euthanasia at Miami-Dade Animal Services. An average of one hundred animals are destroyed every day at this county shelter! Rescued animals vary from being sick, injured, homeless and surrendered to simply lost. We give these animals a safe environment, professional medical care, hope and lots of love. Our animals are sterilized, vaccinated and ID micro-chipped. Some require major surgery from a specialist to repair broken limbs while others may need additional rehabilitation time and specific medical care - ranging from bordetella (kennel cough) and skin infections to cherry eye and heartworm treatments. Once Paws 4 You Rescue commits to helping an animal, we seek the best quality treatment available - taking no shortcuts. Our dogs stay at veterinary clinics, boarding facilities and foster homes until they find their forever families.
