Story
I named her Willow. I found her on my busy road, barking and howling, clearly lost and frightened. Eventually, she wandered over to the house, drawn by the smell of my cats food. She was skittish and so thin that her bones were visible, but once she came to me, she stayed by my side the rest of the day. Willow didn’t shown signs of training, but she quickly picked up basic commands and was easily potty trained. Shes incredibly sweet, loves to snuggle, and is eager to give affection. While she’s learned to walk on a leash pretty good , a home with a fenced yard would suit her better since she loves to run, though shes calm and relaxed indoors.

Story
Big Mac is a neutered, 4-year old American Staff. He is a spunky big boy who loves cuddles and play time. He is potty trained, crate trained, and up to date on all his shots and flea prevention. We rescued him from a kill shelter and adopted to foster because he was soo sweet and deserved a second chance to show his true personality. Unfortunately, we can’t keep him long term which is why fostering was our only option, but we are hoping to find his furever home❤️ he has quite a bit of energy, so he would need an experienced owner with an active lifestyle and preferably a yard. During his walks he does not pull much and listens well to basic commands. He doesn't bark at the doorbell but is always on guard like a good boy! Big Mac does have a high prey drive, so he would need to be in a home with no cats or small critters. Other than that, he gets very excited meeting new people and dogs and is sweet with the neighborhood children ❤️ please give this goofy, loving giant a chance 🥰

NAME:  Twiggy BREED:  Manchester Terrier mix SEX:  male COLOR:  black AGE:  3 yrs as of Feb 2021 WEIGHT:  20 lbs as of Sept 2021 FOSTERED BY:  Lara LOCATED IN:    Bradenton NOTES FROM FOSTER FAMILY: Twiggy is a very loving little guy who is looking for an active forever home. Twiggy has lots of energy and is very, very fast.  He would do best in a home with a fenced yard as daily walks may not give him the exercise he needs.  Another dog his size to play with would be great.  He can be a bit bossy and will need further work on boundaries.  Twiggy needs an adult only home - no children.  He is crate trained and is doing very well with his house training.   NOTE:  Twiggy is a dog can be tricky with some things and is going to need a specific type of home and we will be limiting the area for adoption for him due to this.   At this time we will only consider homes in the following counties:  Manatee, Sarasota, Desoto.    Current or recent dog history is required.  Due to COVID-19 we are a little more limited on volunteers and the availability (and safety) of home visits.   Local applications are given first priority and some out of town areas will not be able to be processed.   At this time, we will only be able to process applications that have an excellent current vet history.  If you haven’t had a pet or verifiable vet history we will not be able to process your application.   If you are interested in adopting please complete our Adoption Application by copying and pasting the following link into your web browser: http://www.caninecastaways.org/adoption-application For a full list of dogs we currently have for adoption use this link:  https://www.caninecastaways.org/adoptable-dogs MEDICAL INFO: The following has been or will be done for this dog... - Basic Exam by Veterinarian - Spayed or Neutered - Heartworm Tested - Placed on heartworm preventive - Basic Bloodwork - Urinalysis - Microchipped - Intestinal Parasite Exam and medication - Vaccinations - Placed on Flea preventive ADOPTION DONATION: $300 This adoption donation helps to cover the vet expenses for this dog including heartworm preventive which is dispensed at the initial vet visit and then goes with the dog at adoption.
