Story
Meet Dori. We adopted Dori about 3 months ago. She is 2 years old and a great family dog. She is absolutely amazing with kids. She is a very submissive, timid dog. Dori needs someone who has nothing but time for her and although she is great with kids she wants to be the center of attention before the kids. She is crate trained but it does spike her anxiety. She needs someone who is just a chill as her she doesn’t like a lot of commotion. Overall she is a great job but pooping is her down fall. You can take her out or walk her as needed and some how she will still poop. So if you’re someone who can handle that or have time to correct that it would be perfect.

Story
Bella is my sweet eight-year-old Chihuahua with a big personality and an even bigger heart. She’s incredibly cuddly and affectionate, happiest curled beside me, yet proudly independent. She has all her shots and is healthy. She can be protective, sometimes starting fights with our other dog, so we’re seeking a calmer loving home for her.

Story
Meet Amore! She is a 1 1/2 year old Fench Mastiff. She has spurts of high energy, but due to her breed size spends a lot of time snoozing as well. She is fantastic with children and loves being with her family. She lives with 2 cats, whom she chases because she wants to play, although they don't like it too much. She has a Saint Bernard brother who just likes to lay around, but she won't leave him alone because she just wants to play with him. She loves walking, playing outside, playing inside with her toys and is ready to meet you!

Buttercup is a black and white, short haired Chihuahua mix puppy who may be only a month and a half old, but she already has a big personality and an even bigger heart. She is a true bundle of joy full of energy, curiosity, and playful spirit and loves nothing more than spending quality time with her owner. While she can be a bit shy at first, once she warms up she becomes friendly and affectionate, showing her sweet side through playful antics and cuddles. Do not let her tiny size fool you though Buttercup has a feisty streak and is not afraid to stand her ground when teased, making her a spirited and lovable little companion.

Story
Tucker is a handsome 5 year old Greyhound mix with a big heart and even bigger energy! This playful boy lives for running and romping around outside it is his absolute favorite thing to do! Tucker can be a little shy at first, but once he warms up, he is all tail wags and kisses. He is done great with kids of all ages and enjoys being part of the action. He gets along well with other dogs, but cats are not his cup of tea. He sleeps in his crate at night like a champ and is fully potty trained. Super smart and eager to please, Tucker learns quickly and is always up for a fun challenge. Just a heads up food with red dye does not sit well with his tummy, so he does best on a simple diet. Tucker can be protective when strangers visit the home, but with proper introductions, he settles in. He is an energetic, outgoing guy who would thrive with an active family and a yard to zoom around in. If you are looking for a loyal, loving companion with a zest for life, Tucker might just be your perfect match! For more information on how to adopt, please call the shelter at 863 324 5227 to see if this pet is still available for adoption. Then come to the shelter for a meet and greet. We are open 10:30 to 6 Tuesday through Friday, Saturday from 10:30 to 4 closed 1-2 for lunch and the last Friday of every month.
