Story

Meet Yuki🤍 Yuki is a 3 year old Great Dane mix, she weighs 75lbs. Got her from a shelter in St.Petersburg Florida. She is a very sweet, kind, gentle and shy girl. She loves her plush toys and the couch! She is very good around kids and other dogs, she is very anxious and timid with grown adults but after a few days warms up! She has a lot of GI issues that we have been working on the last two years. Yuki also has severe anxiety with going outside. The anxiety then triggers her GI issues.She would be great in a home with someone able to care for her the way she needs.

Story

Meet Ozzy: part poodle-looking thing, part race horse, part personal space violator.Ozzy is...a lot. And he's hilarious. He trots around like he's about to enter the Kentucky Derby, except the only prize he's interested in winning is your undivided attention. Once he spots a person, he's coming in hot for a hug whether you want him to or not. In short: he just wants to be enthusiastically loved on, he just doesn't always ask for it in the most tactful way.Subtlety is not Ozzy's strong suit. He doesn't ask for attention, he launches himself into it. Personal boundaries? No way. But underneath the chaos and unabashed zest for life is a dog that just wants to go home with patient people that are going to love him and give him the run around play time and enrichment that he needs to be his best self (and preferably while he's being told he's the best boy in the world [which is fact, and not opinion if you ask him.])Ozzy would thrive with someone who appreciates a high-energy, slightly ridiculous shadow who will follow them around, demand scratches and snuggles, and keep life entertaining at all times. If you've been searching for a dog who greets every day like it's the most exciting even in history, Ozzy is ready to gallop straight into your heart.If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website www.savehomelessanimals.org.

She's impossible not to adore.Betsy is still a puppy, which means she's got plenty of energy, curiosity, and silly antics ahead of her. She'll need a home ready for playtime, training, adventures, and lots of patience while she learns how to channel all that excitement into being the best dog she can be. But more than anything, Betsy is looking for people who want a deeply affectionate companion and are fully prepared to have their faces enthusiastically licked into another dimension.If your ideal dog is equal parts cuddlebug, chaos gremlin, and tiny love missile, Betsy is waiting to launch directly into your heart.If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website www.savehomelessanimals.org.

Meet Tic Tac: Pocket-Sized Best Friend Seeking Permanent LapTic Tac may look like a scruffy little terrier mix straight out of a storybook, but beneath that adorable face is a sensitive soul who's simply looking for a place where he can feel safe, loved, and secure.When you first meet him, Tic Tac can be a little shy.

Once he trusts you, Tic Tac's favorite place is right by your side-or even better, in your arms.Life in a busy shelter can be overwhelming for a little guy who prefers peace and quiet. The barking dogs and constant activity aren't his style. Tic Tac dreams of a calm, low-key home where he can relax, soak up affection, and spend his days close to his favorite people.He's the definition of a companion dog: loyal, loving, and happiest when he's sharing life's simple moments with someone he trusts. If you're looking for a devoted little shadow who wants nothing more than to love and be loved, Tic Tac may be the perfect addition to your family.Come meet Tic Tac.
