Cesar

Labrador Retriever American Pit Bull Terrier

Male, Senior

Bartow, FL

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with kids, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

My grandfather (the owner) passed away last week. Cesar was his baby. I live in Seattle and cannot take him back with me. I have tried every possible rescue without success. Cesar is a very kind, lazy dog. He is 10 years old and about 100lbs. He was professionally trained with many commands. He does not jump. He barks if someone knocks on the door, but knows commands to stop. When my grandfather was alive, he knew commands to have the dog alert me or his caretaker, such as during a fall. He spends 90% of his day laying in a common area. He goes to the door, alerts, and barks if needed to go outside. He does not have a history of any health issues. He’s wonderful with children and elderly. I have not seen how he interacts with other animals. Please help me find him a home. I am willing to transport him out of state if needed, and assist in other ways to transition him into a loving home.

Figgy

Basset Hound Chihuahua

Bartow, FL

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Figgy is a very sweet girl. My husband got her for me as a present when she was just a couple months old. She is fixed, potty trained, crate trained and knows some basic commands. Unfortunately, our house has become a massive project that we were not planning on. Between my husband's work schedule and our children and all the work to do, we don't have the time, or frankly the energy to spend as much time playing with and training Figgy as we'd like to. She can no longer run around freely in the backyard because of the projects and when she's inside she is always trying to chase and play with my husband's cat. She's never been aggressive with him, but she's a decent bit bigger and he is definitely not a fan lol. Every dog we have brought her around, she is immediately friends with and loves playing with them. She's nice with everyone she meets but she can definitely get excited! She is a beautiful and sweet girl, I hope that you can give her the life we want for her.

Story

EXERCISE NEEDS: Daily Workout EASE OF TRAINING: Eager FRIENDLINESS WITH PEOPLE: Loves Everyone PLAYFULNESS: Party Animal FRIENDLINESS WITH DOGS: Selective LEASH MANNERS: Pulls Sometimes Meet Worcestershire Sauce (Worcester, for short!), a small, spunky, and totally goofy bully mix who is ready to spice up your life!

He is highly food and toy motivated, making training a blast, and he already knows his basic commands! Worcester is good on the leash, perfect for adventures. What you need to know about Worcester: High Energy: He will need an active owner who can provide plenty of physical and mental exercise. Dog Selective: He should meet any resident dogs before adoption to ensure compatibility. He may do best as the only dog in the home. Safety First: Worcester is a door/gate rusher, so secure entryways and consistent training will be essential to keep him safe. Training Potential: He is super smart and eager to learn (and eat!), making him an excellent candidate for continued training. He is also possibly house-trained!

Lupita

Mixed Breed (Large)

Female, 4 yrs 8 mos

Lakeland, FL

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

EXERCISE NEEDS: Daily Workout EASE OF TRAINING: Eager FRIENDLINESS WITH PEOPLE: Outgoing PLAYFULNESS: Semi-Pro FRIENDLINESS WITH DOGS: Selective LEASH MANNERS: Pulls Sometimes Meet Lupita, a delightful 3-year-old terrier mix who packs a huge personality into her pint-sized frame. This little dynamo is ready to find her special place in a loving home! Lupita is an absolute dream outside the house: Car Companion: Everyone who takes her out agrees she is the perfect Passenger Princess, wishing she were small enough to be a lap dog while you drive. Leash Manners: She sticks right by your side on walks and enjoys quietly watching the world go by (she’s fascinated by kids playing and squirrels!). -Love to Make a Splash- Lupita's love for water is truly unmatched! Whether it's splashing in a kiddie pool or frolicking in a shallow stream, she’s all about making a splash and having fun. Her enthusiasm for water play is guaranteed to provide endless entertainment for her future family. -A Focus on Success- Lupita is a very smart and active dog, and like many terriers, she needs a consistent routine to feel her best! To help her feel secure and channel her energy when she's left alone, she would greatly benefit from continued training, such as positive reinforcement for crating. This simple step will help her feel safe and relaxed while you're away. -A Deep, Trusting Bond- This sweet terrier mix is an observer, and she takes a moment to assess new people. Once she feels comfortable and secure, she reveals her true cuddly and affectionate side. Lupita is ready to snuggle up and form a deep, lasting bond with the patient and understanding family who earns her trust. In summary, Lupita is a sweet and energetic pup who’s always up for fun! Tennis balls and a good two-toy trade are top favorites, and this smart girl already knows a few tricks. She’s a peanut butter enthusiast, a pro at leaning in for butt rubs, and when playtime winds down, she’s just as happy to lounge by your side. Pita loves people and is ready to bring her mix of playful energy and snuggly charm to a forever home.

Moose

Shepherd (Unknown Type)

Male, 1 yr

Lakeland, FL

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

EXERCISE NEEDS: Marathoner EASE OF TRAINING: Willing FRIENDLINESS WITH PEOPLE: Loves Everyone PLAYFULNESS: Party Animal FRIENDLINESS WITH DOGS: Tolerant LEASH MANNERS: Mush! If you’ve ever wanted to be hugged by a Shepherd-shaped cloud with the grace of a baby giraffe, meet Moose! At 1 year old, Moose is still very much a puppy—he just forgot to stop growing. Moose doesn't just play; he invests in it. He is a world-class body-slammer and a professional hugger who hasn't quite realized that he's no longer five pounds. He is the definition of "happy-go-lucky"—he’s having so much fun that he sometimes forgets things like gravity and personal space! He’s looking for an active family who doesn’t mind a bit of "collateral damage" in the form of happy tail-wags and enthusiastic jumps. Because of his size and "full-contact" play style, he is looking for a home with a patient leader who is excited about training. He’s incredibly smart and eager to please; he just needs someone to show him how to channel that Shepherd brain. Once he gets those big zoomies out of his system, he transforms into the sweetest, most loyal cuddle bug you’ve ever met.
