Story
Hi my name is Cindy! I am an adorable little puppy estimated at 13 weeks old as of mid-September. My mom and dad (June and Cash) and my 2 littermates were surrendered along with me to the rescue as our owner could no care for our family. We were tiny little newborn babies and are so thankful we landed where we could received the medical and general care we needed to survive and get strong and healthy for our forever homes. I appear to be a maltese/Lhasa apso and/or scruffy terrier mix and look at lot like my mom and dad (best guess). I'm estimated at 13 weeks old as of mid-September and my rescue thinks I'll get to around 7-8 lbs. We are friendly, wiggly and adorable! My $650 adoption fee includes vet check, up to date vaccines, deworming, microchip and spay when I'm closer to 6 months old at one of my rescue vet partners (Fort Myers, Naples, Port Charlotte, Miami, Orlando). If you are interested in adoption me, please complete an application at www.gofar.dog under Adopt at your earliest convenience as little ones like us get adopted very quickly!If you have questions, email my rescue at adoptions@gofar.dog.

Story
Hello- my name is Clover! My mama was found with my siblings and I all alone in Miami. She was doing her best to take care of us and keep us safe. Thankfully, someone took us to the county shelter who reached out to Guardians of Florida Animal Rescue for help. There I received the medical and general care I needed to now be ready for my forever family! I am estimated at 4 months old as of mid-September and recently weighed in at around 11 lbs. Mama looks like a smaller version of a blackmouth cur and/or Rhodesian ridgeback at just 35 lbs; I don’t know who my daddy was, but whatever we are, we are 100% cute and adorable!My $450 adoption fee includes vet exam, up to date vaccines, deworming, microchip, and neuter at one of my rescue's vets when I am closer to 6 months old (Fort Myers, Naples, Port Charlotte, Orlando, Miami).

Story
During the month of Sept my fee is reduced to $125!Hello- my name is Lacey. I am estimated at just 2-3 years old and last weighed in at 24 lbs. Best guess at my breed is a rat terrier/chi mix. My friend Cagney and I were found as strays trying to survive on our own in Miami - we were both so very scared! Thankfully, Guardians of Florida Animal Rescue came for us and we received all of the medical and general care we needed to be ready for forever homes. My friend Cagney has found a home so I know my family will come for me soon! I walk well on leash and even know a few of my basic commands! I typically get along with other dogs after a proper and safe introduction and I have never reacted to the rescue cats when I see them. My $250 adoption fee includes vet check, up-to-date vaccinations, spay, heartworm test (negative), microchip and deworming. If you want to make me part of your family please go to www.gofar.dog and complete a free, non-binding adoption application.

Story
Hello- my name is Bonnie! I appear to be a Boston terrier possibly mixed with chihuahua (best guess) estimated at 2.5-3 years old and last weighing in at around 11 lbs. The nice people here at Guardians rescued me from the county shelter. I had been confiscated from a backyard breeding situation along with a bunch of other dogs. I had never really interacted with people or even the outside world before- so I was extremely shy and scared. I’ve been here at Guardians for awhile working on my socialization skills and such. I am doing much better and have even started learning to walk on leash. I am friendly with other dogs; in fact, another social and friendly dog will help me continue to learn and grow in my own right! I’m a really good girl…just need someone willing to be patient and continue working with me like the people here at the rescue have.My $350 adoption fee includes vet exam, up to date vaccines, spay, deworming and preventatives while in our care, heartworm test (negative) and microchip.If you are interested in adopting me, please complete a free, non-binding application at www.gofar.dog under Adopt.If you have questions, email my rescue at adoptions@gofar.dog.
