We adopted Chloe from a shelter at 3 months old. Her birthday is May 11, 2023. She is about 50lbs. She is overall a great dog. She will run for the ball and bring it back, she LOVES to cuddle, she is great with large dogs and small, she is great with kids. She loves to run and chase things. She has responded well to e-collar training. She does like to chew and has separation anxiety when you leave her outside the crate. We are praying for someone to adopt her that is home and/or his a big yard with plenty of running space.

Story

Hi new family! My name is Porter. I live in Florida & my family adopted me as a puppy 5 years ago. I’m about 30lbs now. I loveee love love being snuggled & giving all of the kisses. I’m currently looking for a new family to live with because mine has 2 little kids and I’m not the biggest fan of children. They are too loud and crazy and am super nervous around little kids who don’t know how to respect me and my personal space. I prefer teenagers & adults who know not to get in my face. My favorite thing to do is lay in the sun, run around outside in the backyard, and to snuggle with my humans, preferably on the couch! I love my crate & all of my dog beds. I have a doggie sister so I do like other dogs, but probably not the best dog to bring to dog parks because I get really really excited at first. I like to chase chickens & bunnies but I’ve never caught anything. I know sit, stay, shake, & am crate & potty trained.

Story

*LONGEST RESIDENT* Sammi's story began on August 30, 2022. We rescued her from an overcrowded high-kill shelter in a neighboring county where she had been placed on their euthanasia list after being confiscated in an abuse case. She was severely malnourished, all of her little bones painfully visible. Her fur was thin with bald spots where it had fallen out. Her little body was covered in scabbed cuts and scars from abuse by awful humans. Sammi was about 2 years old at that time and it was evident that she'd had several litters of puppies in her young years. Our Humane Society veterinary team, shelter staff, and volunteers got to work as soon as Sammi arrived to heal her little body and soul and show her that humans could be kind, caring, and most importantly, trusted. After extensive care and rehab, Sammi was adopted from our shelter on Valentine's Day 2023. Sadly, her adopter did not have the time to work with her. In October 2023, Sammi was surrendered again. Although physically healthy, she has now developed separation anxiety, is fearful of strangers, and is reactive to other dogs. We can tell you from experience that once you have Sammi's trust, you have unconditional love. She will happily sit in your lap for chest and belly rubs until she falls asleep snuggled against you. She loves to play with toys, especially tennis balls. She loves to go on walks, car rides, and run and play in the yard. If you fill a kiddie pool with water she'll splash and play in it every day. Sammi will need to be the only pet in her new home with people who can spend time with her. She would be a good fit for someone who works from home, works part-time, or is retired. She needs an active person who can walk and play with her every day. If you can provide a loving home where Sammi is given the time and attention she needs to develop trust with her family, please come to our shelter to meet her and see if Sammi is the right fit for you. She will love you forever! For more information on Sammi and the other animals waiting to join their new families, please email adoptions@humanemanatee.org or call 941-747-8808 x 312.
