My story

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

Scotty is a 1 year-old,  #23, Scottish Terrier Mix, who is fully vetted, current on shots, and treated for heartworm. He will be neutered and microchipped 04/17/24. He relates well with other dogs, is very loving towards humans and a quick learner. If interested on being considered as a candidate for his adoption please complete this form: YCMAD Rescue Dog/Cat Adoption Application (jotform.com)/ Just so you know a fenced-in yard and a home visit are required to be considered as a candidate for adoption.



YCMAD has two non-negotiable requirements to be considered as a candidate for the adoption of any of our rescues: the presence of a fenced-in yard (no electric fences) and the completion of a home visit. Our adoption process includes (3) steps: First, you complete and submit the Pre-Adoption questionnaire available at this link: Pre-Adoption Application Form (jotform.com). completion of this questionnaire does not indicate you will be granted the adoption.  (2) We evaluate your application and inform you of our decision; either (a) we ask for a time and date that is convenient to complete a home visit at which time you will meet the animal of your choice or we will provide you with the rationale as to why we believe this animal may not be a good fit for your home, (3) We travel up to 1 hour from our location to bring the pet to your home which allows you to see him/her in a secure environment without external distractions. It also allows us to observe the environment where the dog/cat will live and ensure that it provides all the required security to prevent as much as possible any accident. Given the extraordinary circumstances our country is experiencing, we have also instituted what we call "virtual home visits.” We complete home visits on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3 to 4 pm and Wednesdays from 10 to 11 am or 3 to 4 pm. Other times and days may also be available depending on our work schedule. Please let us know which one is more convenient for you.  We will bring the animal in question to the home visit. We will complete the adoption if it appears to be a good fit.



Residents of Panama City, Panama City Beach, or any adjacent areas, please know that we will only travel to complete a home visit if we have (2) potential adopters in your area. Unfortunately, you are in CST, and we are traveling from EST, which means that it becomes a day trip to complete a home visit; for efficiency purposes and to decrease our traveling expenses, we have had to establish this rule. We are sorry! In these cases, we adhere to completing a “virtual home visit.”



Again, thanks for your interest in one of our adoptable furry babies. If you have any questions or concerns, please call me at 850-792-2152; this is my direct line, and if I happen to be busy, your call, on average, will be returned within 2 hours. It is our mission to be the voice for the voiceless. Each dog, cat, or horse we adopt has been promised a second chance for happiness and security. We take this promise very seriously.

Additional adoption info

Our adoption fee ranges from $225 to $350.00 dollars. All animals are fully vetted, spayed, or neuter accordingly as well as microchipped. Puppies usually have either the first set of vaccines or all depending on their age, but may not be spayed or neutered. A refundable deposit is required when adopting a puppy that has not been spayed or neutered. Deposit is refunded upon proof of having spayed or neutered the puppy.

You can see our adoptable pets during one of our monthly ADOPTION EVENTS at the Petsmart store located on Capital Circle NE in Tallahassee, or with a prior appointment coordinated via telephone or email in your home.
An adoption contract is required. This contract includes an agreement for no less than 4 follow-up home visits during the first year of adoption. A FENCED IN YARD is required, no exceptions!

More about this shelter

You Can Make A Difference, Inc. is the final phase in a journey that began many years ago. After years of aiding other organizations to achieve the goal of preventing animal abuse we decided to create our own organization.

It was the realization that only if we stop the birth of unwanted animals that the vicious cycle of animal neglect, abuse and abandoned would eventually be stopped that moved us to establish the organization.

We hope that together we can make a difference in the lives of many animals while at the same time educate others in responsible pet parenting. It is time for all who have been touched by the unconditional love that animals can provide to start to "pay forward."

Our organization is geared to serve residents in Gadsden County, Florida. Gadsden County is the second poorest county in the state of Florida. There is no animal shelter in the county, only a high kill facility.
