My story

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

Hi, my name is Alyssa. I am almost 4 years old and weigh 54 pounds. My owners adopted me from Paws4you as puppy and did not want me anymore so brought me back. I love to run and go for walks. I like playing with tennis balls too. I will do best in a home with adults only and no cats. I’m a little selective with my dog friends so will need to meet them first. My favorite volunteers take me out on field trips and I have so much fun! They have learned that I get a little scared when people swing their arms, make quick hand movements, or raise their hands over my head. I prefer slow introductions where you let me come to you. I am looking for a new home where my family will love me furever. Adopt me!

ADULTS ONLY. NO CATS.

Their adoption process

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.
