Story
Hi I'm Lowry! I was found in a box at Lowry Park Zoo where my previous owners dumped me :( I ran around for a few days until the staff at the zoo finally caught me! I am such a good boy though I promise! I love to play with my doggy friends but I'm great with my kitty friends, too! I love kids and am very gentle! I am almost fully potty trained as well :)  ##2007170##

Hey there I'm Carter! I was found on the side of the road with my two other siblings with no mom in sight. I was covered in fleas and had worms but I'm all better now! I love to play with my doggy friends and I love kids, too! I haven't met cats yet but I'm sure I would love them too because I love making friends :)  ##2009269##

Story
MAXX & ME PET RESCUE adoptable dogsEthan &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143. The first thing that drew us to Ethan was the dramatic and horrific injury he sustained from a deeply embedded collar. We knew he needed help. The recovery he has made on that front in such a short time is truly remarkable! (Before pics, update pics, and current pics included in this post!) Like most dogs who suffer tragic injuries, though, Ethan is soooooo much more than that part of his story. The moment you meet him, his charisma bowls you over. His bright, sparkling eyes and goofy smile are as endearing as can be. Throw in the underbite that causes his jowls to hang on his teeth and… well… goooood luck not having to grab him and smooch his face! It’s impossible not to! Ethan will be neutered soon and on the hunt for his forever family. We are currently processing applications for him! (If in the Tampa area, we can do a foster to adopt and allow him to join your family right away!) He will need a fenced yard to run and cut up in. He would prefer a friendly dog or pack to join so he can wrestle and run and play with them but we will also consider an active family committed to exercise and socialization who doesn’t have a dog already. Ethan loves children and people of all shapes and sizes. People = pets, treats, all the “good boys”, so he’s a big fan! In addition to them going to heaven, he believes all dogs were put on earth to play and rough house so a home with crotchety older guys won’t work. Ethan needs younger dogs who want to be a mentor and demonstrate good behaviors he can emulate but who can keep up with him as he attempts to break the speed record for yard courses and zoomies. He also has some boxer in him maybe so he’s handsy and bumps with his chest when he plays. We cannot say enough about this guy! He’s delightful and will bring the fun and the love to any home he joins! Apps for our resilient dude @maxxandme.org Ethan’s adoption fee is $350April 25, 2024, 8:22 pm

This perfect boy is somehow still looking for his forever family!! Dobby is a 10-11 month old pup who was found abandoned locally in Tampa Bay. He is dog, cat, and human friendly. He is very sweet and social and adapts well to new environments. He is a smart boy who is house and crate trained. He does well going to public places like brunch or breweries and would be an an excellent buddy to explore the town with! His ideal home will have another dog and a fenced in yard. He can be chill, but definitely wants a family that will enjoy playing as well! Whether it's a movie night, playtime in the yard, or Sunday funday at a local brewery-he will be your best buddy!   He can't wait to meet his furever family! ##1629448##

Rarely, and when I do, it's as soft as a gentle breeze. And when excitement kicks in, you might catch me making funny faces, spinning around doing some kind of cartwheel, or ready for a game of tag – it's my absolute favorite! Meeting new dogs and people? Oh, I'm all in – making friends is my specialty.   Oh, and did I mention I'm potty trained? Yep, no worries about accidents here! Ready to invite me, Hennessy, into your home?

******Courtesy Post ****** Say hello to Denver! This dapper gentleman is 4 years old and around 65 lbs with a heart just as large! He is full of energy and curiosity for everything around him. Denver currently lives in a home with another pup but would much rather be the only dog in the home. He is smart and a fast learner who is eager to make his people proud. He is highly food motivated, affectionate, and convinced despite his size he is still a lap dog. He knows commands such as sit, wait, down, paw (both), touch, and give kiss. He LOVES car rides and swimming so a bonus if your home has a pool! Denver loves to play fetch, run, or just bask in the Florida sunshine. He would love a home with a large, fenced yard. And if you’re looking for cuddles, Denver knows exactly what to do. Oh and watch out - his happy tail never stops wagging. :) He will not destroy your furniture or shoes so if you’re looking for a young pup without the hassle of puppy training, look no further! His smile is as big as the love you will have when you meet him.

I am a funny, goofy guy who loves my people who will, once I know you, gladly climb into your lap like I`m a chihuahua and not the size of a third grader. If I was a person, my dream job would be bouncer or perhaps neighborhood watch, and I may be most successful in a mature home without a lot of foot traffic for this reason. I have previously lived with another female dog and I love my snacks and playtime. So what are you waiting for? Come down to see me today!

Thumper is a smart and happy go Lucky boy. He was left at the boarders so not a lot is known about him. He is neutered and utd on shots and micro chipped. He is house trained and energetic for a 5 year old. He gets along good with other dogs but not sure of cats. He has been trained as he is very obedient. He does like to jump up to greet you but we are working on that. He'd make a great family dog. He is a real pretty boy with a gorgeous coat and great personality. He absolutely loves to ride in the car. He'll be your co pilot and a well behaved one at that.

Would you just look at these brown eyes Welcome Aubrey Jean to the AMTR family! She is estimated to be 2 and a half years old, is spayed, utd on vaccinations and preventative, and microchipped. See what her foster Mom has to say about this pretty lady: Aubrey is the sweetest, loyal, cuddly doggo you will ever meet. She absolutely loves to be around her family, smushing her face and body on yours. She knows commands and is very committed to impressing her humans. She is crate and potty trained, does well on leash walks, and is dog friendly (with proper slow introductions). She is a silly and loving girl. She will bring something truly special to her forever home. She will take some time to warm up as this sweetie was found as a stray and comes from PRC where she lost her puppies and was very overwhelmed by the environment. ##1918440##

Hi I'm Blossom, a ten year old energetic 60lb girl that loves to play hide and seek with toys, the squeakier the better! I run around the yard deciding which hidey spot to use, then wait for my human to find it! This gives me so much excitement when my human finds my toy, then the fun starts all over again. I walk well on my leash however I am still a little timid and prefer short walks on up and down the street. Car rides are the best and I am able to jump into and out of the back of  SUV's!   I get along well with other dogs and children however have prefer a cat free home.  I am timid around new people, just a little hesitant to engage but I will warm up.  Patience and treats are the way to my heart! I will warm up for cuddles and scratches. I am crate trained and able to be left free alone with no behavioral issues. I alert my human by going to the door when I need to go outside, no accidents from me.   ##2004344##
