Story
AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION---Salah is a sweet boy who is definitely laid back and easy going. If you are looking for a quiet and sweet dog, you would love him.. We believe he would do best in a home as an only dog, preferably with an experienced adopter.. He recently graduated from the prison training program at Central Florida Reception Center, so he knows all of his basic commands. Salah was chosen as Top Dog in his training class! His racing name was Athlacca Salah. He raced in Ireland in 24 races, winning 6 times, so he was a successful racer. We have found that Salah has some sleep aggression issues, so that is why we are looking for a home for him as an only dog. He gets along with small dogs as well as larger dogs when he meets them out walking. Salah walks beautifully on a leash. You just need to be careful when petting him to call him to you so you make sure he is awake. He is in beautiful condition and has a shiny black coat. Please call or e-mail us for an appointment to meet Salah. (813-035-3247 or BAGA@tampabay.rr.com) He is in the Tampa area.

Story
Lammie (racing name: Lammterra), has a sweet and friendly temperament. and loves his humans. He is an affectionate greyhound (constantly wagging his tail) who should make a wonderful companion for his people and will be a superior house pet. although he is great wit other greyhounds, he is not good with cats or small dogs, so needs to go to a home with a fenced yard and no other pets except other greyhounds or similar sized dogs. Lammie had no reported injuries while racing in Ireland, and is an average size for a male greyhound at 75 lbs. His registered name is in honor of the race horse, Lammtara, who won the Epson Derby. Lammie went to our prison training program, so he knows all of his basic commands (sit, lie down, stay, wait, come, etc.). For more information on the prison training program, please go to our website, www.bayareagreyhounds.org and check under Prison Trained Greyhounds. Lammie will come to you with his bed, a high feeder, treats, and toys. He will be a great addition to the right home. Please call 813-935=3247 or e-mail for an appointment to met this handsome and sweet fellow.

Meet Theo He is a very loveable Rottie! The Rottie looks with a SUPER sweet personality great for any experience level. 6 yrs old~ Neutered Microchipped UTD on vaccinations On HW prevention House trained, Crate trained, Good leash manners, Knows Sit, Come, Door Manners, Kennel, Leave-it Good with most dogs , best paired with a female unless you have heavy breed experience Good with all the people he has met Good with children over 10 No small animals, or Cats No livestock Doesn't need an overly active lifestyle. He's fine to just lay and chill all day with his people 2 good walks a day and some play is all this boy needs He needs to stay on a high protein/fat diet to maintain weight Just wants someone to love and give him his best life A note from foster- He is a lovely boy and has done very well! He loves to play and hang out. At bedtime he is happy to run to his crate for his nighttime cookie! He loves to sunbathe in the yard and watch the world go by. He's good with the female dog he is paired with for play. He also loves the water hose!! He goes bananas to get wet. With a simple leave it, he will not chase the water spray. Overall he is going to make someone a wonderful dog! A little patience at first does a world of wonders for him to warm up quickly. We don't know the life he lived but we are showing him the good life is there. Intake story Transfer from a rescue so that we could help him find a forever home as we have experience with this breed. He was originally found dumped at Chamberlain High School in Tampa. If you would like to Foster, also please reach out! We supply everything!

Story
5yr old Trigger is looking for his new home! Sweet and well mannered boy who loves to run and play! Not house trained and has some accidents in crate but is good in it otherwise and walks good on/off leash. Wonderful recall and follows commands well. Lives on working farm with horses, cows and chickens so is used to the fast pace but still has a prey drive for the birds. Same gender aggressive and a little more shy than his siblings he'll need someone to take the time to socialize him. Single pet household is preferred at first.

Story
Meet Bastian — Your Next Adventure Partner 🐾 Bastian is a 6-year-old working line German Shepherd searching for his perfect forever home.

Bastian is everything you’d expect from a working line shepherd: intelligent, energetic, and deeply engaged with his person. He has a strong toy drive and thrives when given a job, making him an excellent candidate for activities like obedience, rally, scent work, or agility. He does well with other dogs and would benefit from a home that can provide structure, consistency, and plenty of mental and physical enrichment. Bastian will shine with an experienced handler or someone dedicated to meeting the needs of a high-drive dog. If you’re looking for a loyal, active companion who’s always ready to train, play, and partner with you in life—Bastian might just be your perfect match.
