My story

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

Slinky is a good boy and the perfect adventure buddy. He has lots of energy and loves to go on hikes, runs and paddling! He would do best with an outdoorsy family who has some space for him to run or time to take him to the park. He does great with other dogs who want to play and chase and has been keeping his foster sister Patty energized and playful. Slinky is a young, curious pup who would benefit from lots of chew toys and some gentle reminders that shoes don't fall into that category. :) He's a smart dog and some training would go a long way. Bring your kids and dog(s) to meet this goofy and loyal pup!

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.
