Story
Mickey is the sweetest dog you can find. He is 13 years old and he is definitely a people person. He is a cuddle bug and likes to sleep most of the day. He always likes to be around someone, does not like to be left at home for long periods of time. He is healthy. I would like to find him a new home that will be able to give him the love and attention he deserves.

Story
Sid is seeking a cozy bed to lay on and watch the world go by. He is housebroken - crate trained - walks well on a leash. He would love a nice, quiet place to relax and call home and a best friend. Sid does get along well with other dogs - he doesn't play but enjoys their company. He does like to lay his head on a soft toy.

Story
Meet Lumi & Casper 💛 Lumi and Casper are a bonded pair of 1-year-old Parsons Jack Russell Terrier mixes, each weighing about 16–20 lbs. They were found abandoned in a wooded area and are now safe and learning what it means to be loved. These two are shy and fearful with people, but with time, patience, and a calm environment, they will come around. Casper is playful and curious, eager to trust, while Lumi is more reserved and takes comfort in following his lead. Together, they slowly build confidence and have recently discovered toys — which they absolutely love! They also enjoy the company of calm, small dogs. They are crate trained, house trained, and feel safest in their crates. While they aren’t comfortable with handling yet and must stay leashed outdoors, they closely observe their people and show growing curiosity and connection. Home Requirements: - Adult-only, quiet household - Secure 5–6’ fenced yard - No children or teens (because an open door = opportunity) Okay with 1–2 small dogs their size or smaller — or just each other Lumi & Casper are bonded and must stay together. They are available for foster or adoption, currently located in Land O Lakes. Adoption is open throughout Florida; foster homes must be within an hour of Tampa or Sarasota. 👉 Foster: www.love4pawsfl.org/foster 👉 Adopt: www.love4pawsfl.org/adopt

Story
Lumi & Casper have been with us for about a month after being dumped in a forest and trapped by park rangers. Lumi was still full of milk, clearly separated from her puppies. Casper appears to be her identical twin and constant comfort. These two are adorable 1-year-old Parsons Jack Russell Terrier mixes, weighing about 16–20 lbs. They are very scared of people and will need time, patience, and a gentle home — but they will come around. Casper is playful and eager to trust, with so much potential. Lumi is more fearful and relies heavily on him, following his lead and avoiding human touch for now. Together, they build confidence little by little. Recently, they’ve discovered toys and absolutely love them, which has been a joy to watch. They also adore the female Jack Russell in their foster home. Because of holiday travel, they’ve been bounced between short-term fosters and boarding and desperately need a stable, quiet place to land. Their ideal home: • Adult-only, calm household • Secure, solid 5–6’ fenced yard • No children or teens (quick movements and doors are too risky) • Fine with 1–2 small dogs their size or smaller — or just each other They are crate trained, house trained, and feel safest in their crates. While they aren’t comfortable with hands yet and must stay leashed outside, they follow their people indoors, watch closely, and are wonderfully curious. Trust will come with consistency and kindness. If you’re within an hour of Tampa or Sarasota and can help, please apply to foster: 👉 www.love4pawsfl.org/foster Adoption: www.love4pawsfl.org/adopt They can be adopted anywhere in Florida, but a foster home must be near us. They are available for FOSTER or ADOPTION. They are currently in Land O Lakes and are bonded/must stay together.

💖 Meet Maddie! 💖 This 15lb, 9-month-old brindle Chihuahua mix is the perfect little sidekick looking for her forever human. If you’re searching for a dog who wants to be your shadow, your couch-snuggle buddy, and your adventure partner… Maddie might be your girl. 💕 ✨ About Maddie: • Loves being close to her people – she’s happiest when her humans are nearby • Great on a leash and enjoys walks • Happy sleeping in a crate or cuddled up in a cozy bed • Still has some fun puppy energy and loves to play 🎾 • Also a champion couch snuggler 🛋️ • Super friendly with new people and great with the older kids in her foster home She’s almost completely potty trained after just two weeks (smart girl!) and is currently living happily in a townhome, so a fenced yard isn’t required. If she does spend time outside, she’ll need a secure, solid fence — this tiny athlete can jump close to 5 feet! 😲 Maddie may bark a little at outside noises or dogs passing on walks, but she settles quickly and just wants to get back to what she loves most… being with her people. ✔️ Spayed ✔️ Vaccinated ✔️ Microchipped ✔️ Heartworm negative 📍 Located in Lutz/Tampa 💲 Adoption fee: $350 Maddie is ready to be someone’s best friend and loyal little companion. 🐶💞 Apply here: www.love4pawsfl.org/adopt Already have an application on file? 📧 Email info@love4pawsfl.org
