Hello, I'm Bradley! I'm a very friendly boy who loves treats and toys and people! I enjoy going for long walks where I can roll around and bask in the sun. However, my journey hasn't always been sunny.
Two and a half years ago I was hit by a car and my hind end was paralyzed for almost a month. My recovery was full of ups and downs over the next year. For the first few months I had issues controlling my bowels and had accidents. I received a full neurological exam and it was determined I most likely had nerve damage to my spine, which was causing my incontinence. We tried different medicines and acupuncture and eventually my accidents became less and less, but I still have them. No worries though! I have cute diapers to wear to help with my accidents when they do happen.
As for walking went, I was determined to be on my paws again and was up and walking on my own within two months! I can run and hop around like any other dog!
Despite what I went through, I am a happy boy that has so much life and love to give! I would love to find that patient person who can give me that extra bit of care and love I need. I am available Foster-to-Adopt to ensure my new home is the right fit. If you're ready to be that special someone, then set up an appointment to meet me!

More about this shelter
The Humane Society of North Central Florida was created in 2018 when the leadership of the Alachua County Humane Society, Gainesville Pet Rescue, and Helping Hands Pet Rescue decided to permanently join forces. By becoming the Humane Society of North Central Florida, our organizations were able to effectively streamline services for pets and pet owners, eliminate any duplication of services, maximize our community’s resources, and improve the life-saving abilities of the entire region.
Our founding organizations have been dedicated to serving pets in Alachua County for more than 40 years. The Humane Society of North Central Florida is a limited intake, no-kill animal rescue shelter. The animals in our facility are transferred from open-intake and/or managed admission municipal shelters across North Central Florida. The Humane Society of North Central Florida is an independent, local 501(c)(3) organization. As such, we do not receive funding from federal agencies, nor are we affiliated with any other state or national organizations such as the Humane Society of the United States or the ASPCA.
