Story
Hace exactamente un ano, encontre a Lobo en la calle, buscamos su dueno mucho tiempo, no tenia chip, y nunca aparecio, decidi que quede en mi hogar para darle una vida merecida, pero lamentablemente no puedo seguir teniendolo, trabajo muchas horas, regreso tarde, y debo mudarme a un lugar mas pequeno ya que viajo mucho por trabajo, es una mascota muy amigable, companera, le gusta jugar y dormir, jamas rompio algo, es muy cuidadoso y bueno. Realmente el merece tener una familia. No te vas a arrepentir de tener a Lobo en tu familia, es muy amigable, ama las visitas, y ama compartir tiempo contigo. / Exactly one year ago, I found Lobo on the street. We searched for his owner for a long time. He didn't have a chip, and he never appeared. I decided to keep him in my home to give him a deserved life, but unfortunately I can't continue having him. I work long hours, I come back late, and I have to move to a smaller place since I travel a lot for work. He is a very friendly pet, a companion,

Story
Hank is a gentle giant. Although he is 80 lbs, he has no clue he is a big dog. He is so sweet, incredibly well behaved, on the chill side with occasional zoomies and spurts of energy. Would make an excellent cuddly buddy. He is good with dogs and eager to please. Walks great on leash, knows basic commands, and LOVES to play with his toys. If he needs independent time, he is very content in his bed playing with his toys.

Andy

Toy Fox Terrier Chihuahua

North Miami, FL
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Andy is a sweet boy who's true colors are hidden behind fear. He needs an extremely patient home who is willing to work with him as he continues to gain confidence and trust. He does not do well to authority and everything with Andy is at his pace. He is excellent and very affectionate when hes not in a situation where he feels threatened. He does not like to be "forced" to go to a playpen or a crate, however, he will gladly walk in there himself with toys or a treat. He will never react without very clear warning signs, often displayed with tail tucked and a low growl showing he is uncomfortable. He can be extremely clingy , affectionate and cuddly, but on his terms. He does not yet enjoy being forcefully picked up, but if sitting on the floor he will leap right into your lap and beg for gentle pets. He seems to do well with smaller dogs, and since he has not been tested with larger dogs it would be best to not adopt out to that.

Atlas

Pit Bull Terrier

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Atlas exemplifies resilience, unconditional love, and gratitude. This boy endured some of the worst , unimaginable pain, suffering, starvation, and abuse , a dog could experience. After being evidently used as a bait dog, Atlas's lifeless and ripped up body appeared at the shelter, clinging onto life. The hope and will to survive in his eyes were seen immediately, along with his naturally sweet demeanor as he instantly met every vet and staff with tail wagging, kisses, and such trust. He knew he was finally free and safe from a life of horror. He is now recovered, and as his wounds continue to heal, his personality and confidence grows bigger each day. He is a quick learner and eager to please so although he is still working on proper manners , he has shown us that with continued patience, routine, structure and consistency he will be the best boy! He has a bright, very energetic and puppy playful demeanor , where he clearly thinks he's still "chihuahua size" and that he can greet everyone with big open arms and slobbery kisses. He has done well with dogs, but as always slow and proper introductions are always required. He is house and crate trained. He will require someone experienced with the breed to ensure you provide him the exercise and adventure he deserves.
