Story

Ruger joined our family 8 years ago when we foster-failed with him from Suncoast Animal League when he was just a puppy. He stole our hearts with his handsome smile and sweet personality. He was best buds with our older dog until he passed a few years ago. Ruger is a sweet gentle giant who makes you feel safe and loves your attention. If it weren’t for allergy issues with our young ones, we would want him to live his life out with us forever. He would do best in a free range home and enjoys kids. He can be nervous around people at times, but love and comfort make his tail go wild and his smile big! He loves to run, so a yard is vital for him. He can even be a running partner for you up to mile 3! We would love to see him in a home with lots of activity he can be involved in. We have given him the nickname Roogie Boogie as he has shown his sneaky side with food on the counters before! We have high hopes he can enjoy freedom and comfort with a new loving family.

Story

Please help me find a home for this baby. He is a pit mix, 3 years old, fixed and utd on all shots and vet check ups. We’ve exhausted all options on helping him. After 6 weeks of professional in house training, meds, and behavioral training, he just can’t be housed with any other dogs. He is severely anxious and being around other animals makes it to the point where he just paces, pants and cries. He’s just miserable. He’s housebroken, he doesn’t eat or destroy anything and he’s never bitten anyone. He is extremely afraid of other dogs and he will go at them and bark and try to chase them off. He needs to be in a home with NO other pets. He needs someone who is around everyday to love on him as he has separation anxiety. He is low energy, and enjoys lying out in the yard, watching out the window, and cuddling. He’s very chill. He needs someone to love him and give him the life he deserves. The shelters won’t take him because he’s too anxious and being around other dogs makes

Details

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Huckleberry is a very loyal boy to me. I’ve had him since he was 3mos. He turns 4yo on 05/06/2024. He’s house trained, never gets into things he’s not supposed to, & listens pretty good. Everything with him has been great up until the last year & a half. He’s a good boy but he has developed some anxiety. I used to be able to take him everywhere & he could be around anyone but recently he has started becoming more reactive to strangers (people & animals). He’s the sweetest to myself, my cat, my brother and my mom but just has a hard time with other people. I love this dog to pieces but i unfortunately am unable to care for him how he needs. Huck is in need of some good training & I know he will kick these behavior issues. We currently live in an apartment & it’s not the best for him. It breaks my heart but I know he will have a happier/healthier life in a different home. Huckleberry deserves a family who will love, be patient & get all his energy out! He needs someone with experience!!!
