Story
Apply to Adopt Me! Meet Goldie: Your New Low-Rider, Little Spoon, and Loyalty Expert  If you are looking for a compact companion who promises to keep your bed warm and your life full of laughs, Goldie is the girl for you. At a solid 25 lbs, this 5 1/2yo possible dachshund/pittie mix is the definition of "travel-sized" perfection. She sports the classic long-and-low doxie build and a coat of bright sunshine, all topped off with a pair of iconic "satellite dish" ears. The Resilient Spirit: Goldie is a survivor who lost her first home after her original family became unhoused. She was hit by a car in October 2024 that left her temporarily paralyzed from the waist down after suffering a broken pelvis. She is a medical marvel; while her back legs may look a little "off-kilter" when she walks, she still has that goofy energy and can run, zoom and leap onto the couch for a cuddle session like a pro. The Daily Routine: Goldie is a trustworthy, non-destructive roommate who doesn’t require a crate. When you’re gone, she mostly just snoozes in her bed or burrows into blankets. She has a few 15-minute bursts of "goofy mode" per day for tug-o-war or fetch and will let you know when it's time to go out (or when it's time to eat). Otherwise, her absolute favorite pastime is getting endless belly scratches while melting into your side.  She walks fine on a leash but can pull or plant if she sees or smells something interesting. She loves car rides.  Quick Stats & Needs: The Friendship Pipeline: Goldie can be wary of strangers at first. She needs a proper, patient introduction. However, if that stranger is offering a slice of delicious ham, she’ll immediately decide they are her new best friend for life! (And once that initial meeting is over, she’ll stay your best friend even if the ham runs out!) Family Life: If the home has kids, Goldie would do well in a home with older children (10+); she would love a human playmate to burn off energy with during backyard chase sessions. Social Skills & Training: She is a loyal protector who needs a confident leader to set boundaries, as she can sometimes be prone to resource-guarding her favorite people. Because she already has a great grip on her basic commands, she is incredibly adept at learning; she would be an excellent candidate for additional training to help her channel her loyalty and focus into new skills!  Other Pets: She prefers to be your one and only dog. She is currently coexisting with two cats, but her "no chill" approach can be a bit much for them. The Ideal Setup: Someone who works from home or part-time is preferred for regular bathroom breaks. Home Infrastructure: She prefers non-slip flooring to keep her balanced. Plus, easy-to-clean floors are best for her occasional "excited sprinkles" or drips when she barks. She requires a fenced-in yard (at least 4ft high) for safe sniffing and sunbathing.  Skills: Pro at "Sit," "Drop it," and "Go get/where’s your toy?" Goldie is a resilient soul who just wants a stable place to land. If you have a spot in your bed for a "little spoon" and a spare slice of ham, she will be your most devoted companion for life.  If you live in the Central March 7, 2026, 8:41 am

Story
Scooby is a 5 year old Dachshund Bully mix weighing approximately 35 pounds. He was surrendered when his owner lost her job and was forced to move in with relatives. You can see the sadness in his eyes ☹. He is very timid and laid back, complacent and mellow. Needless to say, he is very depressed and won’t even eat (not even treats). His adoption donation is $250 which includes his neuter, vaccinations, microchip. He is heartworm negative and on monthly prevention. Please help him to feel loved again. https://www.aforeverhomeanimalrescue.org/store/p169/Scooby_Doo.html

Story
Apply to Adopt Me! Are you looking for a new best friend? Look no further! Meet Amos, a 5-6yo, 21lb. possible basset hound/beagle mix. Amos had a tough time in his life prior to coming to Lil Rascals, finding himself homeless and roaming around a Georgia nieghborhood until someone finally cared enough to help him. As a result, he is a little anxious and shy. But that doesn’t stop this short-legged boy from wanting to be your best friend. He loves to meet new people and enjoys going places with his humans - whether on walks or in the car. He hasn’t spent much time around children, but in his limited interactions he’s done fine. Amos loves to cuddle, sleep and spend time with you and your dog! He would do best in a home with another dog, as he looks to other dogs for comfort and cues. He is currently in a home with a cat and is mostly uninterested although he has shown some friendly curiosity. He is not quite housebroken but he is trying his best to figure it out and his accidents are happening less frequently. He is more likely to go potty in a fenced-in yard with someone outside with him than on a walk, but he walks well on a leash and enjoys going on adventures. He is a scent hound, so he likes to stop and sniff everything while walking. Amos responds well to positive reinforcement and needs a home that can show him a lot of patience and love. Loud noises (including squeaky toy) and voices scare him, and he may bark when he hears a noise he’s unsure of. Although he’s a hound, we’ve only heard him bark, not howl. He is very food motivated but hasn’t shown any signs of food aggression. He is overly excited when it comes to mealtime and cries and jumps. We’ve been working on training him to be calm around these times so he doesn’t exhaust himself with excitement, but Amos is still a work in progress. He will go in the crate with a treat but prefers not to be in crate. He sleeps well through the night in bed with you or on a dog bed in your room. He loves cuddling in bed and he curls himself up into a little ball. Amos is a great little guy who is looking for a loving and patient home. He is social, friendly, and oh so sweet. He’d love to be your new best friend! Amos is heartworm positive at this time, and is on the slow kill protocol, which we can explain that process to any interested applicant. He can enjoy regular activities. Heart worm disease is contracted from an infected mosquito and can not be transmitted to another dog. If you live in the Central Florida/Orlando area and believe you have the perfect home for Amos, complete an app and tell us more about your family. March 7, 2026, 8:41 am
