PLEASE READ THE ANIMAL’S PROFILE AND ALL NOTES BELOW BEFORE APPLYING! 💕 Hi, I’m Lonnie 🐾💕 I’m a 7-month-old Boxer puppy with a big personality, tons of energy, and a whole lot of love to give! I’m playful, smart, energetic, and always ready for the next adventure. I love being near my people, so if you walk out of the room, don’t be surprised if I happily follow right behind you! 🥰 I’m house trained and crate trained, and I already know some commands. I’m doing great in my crate and can settle down nicely at bedtime. I’ll happily go to sleep when you do and can sleep through the night for up to 8 hours. I’m still working on potty training, but I understand that potty happens outside—I’m just learning how to let my humans know when I need to go. I’m a VERY energetic puppy and definitely need a family who can keep up with me! I get the zoomies and love to run and play, so a securely fenced backyard would be wonderful for me. I also enjoy playing with other dogs and would love a playful doggy sibling who can help me burn off some of that puppy energy. 🐾 Like many puppies, I’m still learning how to play politely. When I get really excited, I can be a little mouthy during play, but I’m improving and learning that gentle play is much more fun. I’ll need a family who is patient, consistent, and willing to keep working with me every day. I do well with big dogs and older cats, and because of my energy and enthusiastic play style, I’d do best with older children who can handle my puppy antics. My foster says I’m a sweet girl who just wants to love. I may not always show my cuddly side right away, but when I’m calm and sleepy, all I want is to snuggle up next to you. ❤️ Adoption FEE: $300 which includes her spay, microchip, and vaccines.

Story
Meet Little John 🐻 aka LJ ADOPTER NEEDED ❤️🐾☀️ Tampa, FL LJ was found as a stray with a missing paw and taken to a rural Ga shelter. That’s all we knew… he was a black dog, with a medical ailment that would make him undesirable to the public and he was sitting at a shelter that’s severely overrun with need. LJ was definitely up against it… On a wing and a prayer, we committed to him. We didn’t have a spot for him. We didn’t know what else Little John would need but we did know his leg would need attention and we wanted to give him that. His sweet face just killed us…we hoped during that month that we saw his picture at the shelter someone would come to save him, but that someone never did so Maxx & Me stepped up. When LJ arrived, it was immediately obvious there is a laundry list of medical problems he is dealing with. He’s severely emaciated. His bones stick out such that it seems they will rip through right through his skin. His testicles are extremely infected – red, inflamed, with open sores. His leg was definitely NOT a congenital defect. His injury was some traumatic amputation, the origin is unknown. His leg still bears the ringed scars of entanglement. He bears old scars all over his body, evidence of a life lived unloved and scrounging for survival. And yet… Little John is as lovely as the character for which he’s named. He’s sweet. He’s starving… He’s friendly with both cats AND little dogs. He’s friendly with dogs his size and good with cats as he stayed temporarily with two small dogs and 6 cats. He loves people and craves touch but he’s cautious when meeting new humans – unsure if they’re there to hurt him or help him…he wagged his tail so much that he had “happy tail” where they whack it against the steel metal bars in the shelter because they are so happy to see you it bleeds. It has since healed❤️ For a dog to be in that situation and still exude joy, simply shows the resilience of little John. He is gaining weight and is a strong boy. We are still working with veterinarians to determine if his back leg is a hindrance or help and will determine amputation or not, but he will be ok no matter what! We desperately need a foster and adopter for his gentle boy☀️🐾❤️ Apps @maxxandme.org Adoption fee is $300 If you can help us with LJ’s needs please help us provide Little John with all he will need to get healthy and start to feel better. Donations to his care can be made via www.maxxandme.org/donate Cash App $maxxandmepetrescue www.paypal.me/maxxandme Venmo@maxxandmepetrescue Checks mailed to 12191 W Linebaugh Ave #554 Tampa, FL 33626 We love this precious boy so much already. We are hoping like crazy for good news and a positive

Story
Angelina, lovingly called Beanie, is a threeyearold sweetheart with a quirky charm and the gentlest soul. She had a brain injury as a puppy, and while she does take daily medication, her seizures are well managed with a calm, predictable routine. Once she feels safe, her playful personality shines: she’ll toss toys in the air, zoom around for a moment, and then curl up for quiet cuddles. Beanie is foodmotivated, which makes building trust and reinforcing routines easier. She gets along well with other dogs and with children, but she truly thrives in a peaceful home, ideally with one or two calm canine friends rather than a busy household. She enjoys car rides and exploring new places at her own pace. She would do best with someone who is home often and can offer stability, patience, and steady affection. Beanie bonds deeply with her people and simply wants to feel understood and secure. She is a sensitive, loving dog with so much character and for the right person, she will be an incredibly meaningful companion.  She is a loving dog with a lot of character, and for the right person, the relationship with her will be very meaningful. She is ready for a home that can appreciate who she is and love her just as she is. ##1661209##

Story
Hi...my name is King** and I am one and a half years old and weigh 65 lbs. I am very playful and loving...but my former owner did not give me any training beyond potty training. So I love to play with toys and get butt scratches from you and would be your best friend!! I like other dogs...but since I play rough and rowdy...they would need to be the same size as me! I am a big loveable Teddy bear...but I am very strong and get excited when we play together...so no small children...as I might accidentally push them over. I have learned to sit and know when told to get in my crate to do so...but I still need more training...as in walking nicely on a leash and not to pull. I also am interested in chasing lizards and kitties...so you need to be strong enough to hold me. I would love a back yard to play in and I would love to be your baby! Look at my puppy picture...I was cute...still am!!! I'm ready to go now...just fill out my application!! **Please Note: The St. Francis Dog Team only adopts out to The Immediate Tampa Bay Area...unless the dog has Special needs!

Hi, my name is Cheddar**. I am a 5 1/2 year old bully breed. I weigh about 40 pounds. I am very loving and love attention. I may be small, but I'm mighty. I recently ate something that I shouldn't have, and I was very sick. I had surgery, but after surgery, I was still not able to move. I ate something that was toxic and caused me to be paralyzed. I needed intense round the clock care for weeks to help me get through it. Against all odds, I pulled through and made a full recovery. I am looking for a family that will give me all the love and attention I deserve. I am up to date on my vaccines and monthly heartworm and flea preventions. **Please Note: The St. Francis Dog Team only adopts out to The Immediate Tampa Bay Area...unless the dog has Special needs!
