Do you need a running or biking partner that can keep up with you? Then Laika is your girl!
Laika was born in late June 2023 somewhere in South Florida. For some mind-boggling reason, the home into which she was born didn't want her anymore. So, her humans got in their car and drove her to the Redlands, an agricultural area 20 miles southwest of Miami. There they opened their car door and sent her out. This practice is called "dumping, and the Redlands is a known "dumping ground. A dog sanctuary specifically for those dogs was started and multiple Facebook groups organized to feed and spay and neuter those abandoned dogs.
Laika took basic dog obedience classes and learned to walk on a leash. She also learned not to jump on everyone (she loves people so much that she wants to jump on them). She loves to play with other dogs at the dog park and gets along well with them. Laika loves to play fetch, particularly with squeak toys. Laika loves road trips. She has been to the Everglades and Sarasota, putting her head out of the window most of the time. Laika likes to run, a lot, and trains her every day to run next to her foster on the bicycle. Laika can currently jog up to 3 miles at a time, sometimes twice a day. It appears she will be able to increase that mileage if her forever human is an avid bicyclist or runner. After a good run, Laika likes to lay on the sofa with her human, nap and have a peanut butter snack.
Do you need help getting out of bed in the morning? Laika will lick you awake! Does your dog have separation anxiety? Laika plays well with others! Do you like to relax with a good movie? Laika will lay right next to you on the sofa! Do you like to run or bike? She is a high-energy puppy! Do you like road trips? Laika will be in the passenger seat with her head out the window! If you need these things, then Laika is the forever pup you've been looking for!
Adoption fee includes DHPP vaccine, Rabies vaccine (if age appropriate) heartworm testing, spay/neuter surgery, deworming, wellness vet visit, one month of pet insurance and microchip. All animals are examined by a veterinarian. Please fill out our application at https://gkarma.wufoo.com/forms/good-karma-pet-rescue-dog-adoption-screening/ if you would like to adopt or meet this dog, and we will be in touch right away!

We have a quick but thorough adoption process. We ask you to fill out an application and we will touch base with you by phone. If we feel you are a good fit for the animal you would like to adopt based upon your application, we will want to do a home visit and have you meet the pet. If everything checks out, we will ask that you sign an adoption contract and pay a donation - usually $75 for cats and $150 for dogs. This includes all vetting, spay/neuter, vaccines, etc.
Our contract allows us to come visit you and your new family member after the adoption to make sure everything is going well and your new pet is happy & healthy.

More about this rescue
Good Karma Pet Rescue is a small network of foster homes in South Florida dedicated to providing dogs and cats in need with the love and help they need and deserve.
GK was started in 2011 by Stacey Chen, who decided that she could best provide for her foster animals by starting a rescue that aims for best care rather than high volume. We intend to stay as small as we need to be to ensure that every one of our foster animals is treated with the same care and respect we show our own furry family.
GK is based in Fort Lauderdale and is supported by wonderful, dedicated foster parents throughout the South Florida area. If you are interested in helping to save lives through volunteering, fostering, or adopting, please get in touch with us!
