Story
Stella is a female dog seeking a new home with an experienced, adult-only owner—no children, dogs, or cats. She is loyal, intelligent, and builds strong bonds with her person. Stella is house-trained and thrives in a calm, stable environment, where she can be affectionate and relaxed.However, Stella has displayed aggression toward other dogs and has bitten a person in the past, becoming reactive in certain situations. For this reason, she must be the only pet and needs an owner experienced in dog behavior. Stella benefits most from clear boundaries, a consistent routine, and secure handling, especially leash control.Her ideal adopter understands behavioral challenges and is committed to ongoing training and safety management. With the right support, Stella is a truly amazing and loving companion.

He’s equal parts walking buddy, couch companion, and loyal shadow. He loves long strolls, gets excited to play, and then happily settles in right beside you—whether that’s curled up in his dog bed or leaning into you for some well-earned pets (his signature move!). Why you’ll love Jackson: Gentle, affectionate, and easy-going Great with other dogs Housebroken and doggie-door trained Champion cuddler and professional lounger Secret beach bum—he loves water! Jackson may be a senior, but you’d never know it. He still enjoys adventure and would make an excellent walking partner (he’s enthusiastic on leash and could use a little polishing—but that just means more bonding time!). He’s a “go with the flow” kind of guy—happy in a home with other dogs or soaking up all the attention as your one-and-only. While he’s not a fan of cats, he’s been a total gentleman with every adult human and dog he’s met. The perfect home for Jackson: Someone who appreciates a dog with a calm spirit but a playful spark. He doesn’t need fancy tricks—just love, companionship, and maybe a cozy spot on the couch. If you’re looking for a loyal best friend who will walk by your side, lean in for affection, and remind you to enjoy life’s simple pleasures… Jackson is your guy.  Adoption Fee: $ **Included:** - Neutered - Up to date on all vaccines - Microchipped - Heartworm negative Adoption Requirements: Home visits required and non-negotiable Adoptable through: The London Sanctuary Fostered in: Jacksonville, FL       -----------------------   Meet Action Jackson – The Chill Companion You’ve Been Waiting For  Despite his action-packed name, Action Jackson is more of a laid-back homebody than a thrill-seeker. This 9.5-year-old hound/lab/mutt mix is all about the simple pleasures—quiet afternoons, leisurely walks, and lounging with his people. Personality & Lifestyle Jackson is calm, polite, and dog-friendly. He enjoys meeting people and is great with older kids, though cats are still an unknown. He’s not the type to chase tennis balls for hours, but he will happily keep you company while you sip coffee or work in the garden. Training & Habits He’s crate trained, house-trained, and while he doesn’t know formal commands, his eagerness to please makes him a quick learner. He’s not overly treat-motivated but will happily accept the occasional canned food snack.

Story
Teddy has been a part of our family since around 6 weeks old. He was the runt of the litter. Teddy will be 10 yrs old this Nov. Teddy is very loving to the ones closest to him. He does bark like a protector as Yorkies do.All his records are with Banfield. Will send all vaccinations in email.He does need to be in a controlled environment. If he gets overly excited he gets seizures. Teddy was on phenobarbital in previous years due to the condition,but has been off for awhile now.Teddy needs to continue a special routine to keep his stress down.Does not like to be picked up at all.If you are familiar with Yorkies and their protective nature, he is just that and loving to his immediate owners. He has got along with specific dogs and kids but again needs to be watched else could get overly excited and cause seizures if other dogs attack or dogs/kids play too rough with him since he only weighs 5.5 pounds.The last picture is of him with other family members dogsSerious enquire only

Story
Meet Lexi - Speed, Smarts & a Whole Lot of Heart! If you blink, you might miss her… because Lexi is quite possibly the fastest dog at the sanctuary This beautiful black-and-white girl is a stunning mix of brains and athleticism. We suspect a blend of terrier and herding breeds (we think Rat Terrier / Border Collie vibes, maybe even a touch of Staffordshire), which makes her incredibly sharp, alert, and full of personality. Lexi is a true hunter at heart, curious about everything, always tuned in, always thinking. She would absolutely thrive with an active person or family who enjoys walks, playtime, and giving her little “jobs” to do. What makes Lexi special: • Lightning fast and super athletic • Very intelligent and quick to learn • Loyal and deeply connected once she bonds • Playful, curious, and full of life • Around 50 lbs of pure energy and love She’s the kind of dog who will keep you moving, keep you smiling, and keep you on your toes in the best possible way. And when the day winds down? That same energetic girl turns into a companion who just wants to be near her person. Ideal home: Lexi would do best with someone who understands active, intelligent dogs - someone who will give her structure, exercise, and engagement. She can be a couch potato also, she loves to snuggle with you and watch a movie. If you’re looking for a dog with personality, brains, and a spark that makes every day a little more exciting - Lexi might be your girl.
