Story
Betsy is a 5 year old spayed female Corgi.   She’s working on housebreaking and is crate trained. Betsy is great with cats and great with dogs her size or smaller. She would do best with a fenced in yard.  Betsy is currently in a foster home.   Volunteers For Animals periodically pulls dogs from other shelters to free up space; this helps avoid euthanizing healthy, adoptable animals. We are able to do this through the generosity of many people such as the originating shelter staff, transporters, foster volunteers and others who help with pulling fees, vet bills and finding good homes once they are here.   The adoption process includes an application that is completed by the potential owner. If there are multiple applications on the same animal, the animal will go to the best home for that particular animal - not necessarily the first application. Fees for the rescues animals can range from $100 to $450 per animal which needs to be cash or a check - NO CREDIT CARDS.   If you are interested in any of the Rescue dogs, please Contact Us. Do not call the Shelter regarding rescue animals - they have no information about these dogs. All rescue animals are in foster homes with volunteers - NOT at the Shelter - unless otherwise noted.   Here is the adoption process:   To adopt an animal you must complete an application and be approved. There is a $100 fee for any county animal which needs to be cash or a check - NO CREDIT CARDS. If the animal is not spayed or neutered, there is a $35 deposit which will be returned upon proof of surgery. All dogs must be licensed before leaving the Shelter. Please note that public offices that issue dog licenses are not open on Saturdays and Sundays. All cats must leave in a carrier.   Thank you for considering a homeless animal.July 2, 2026, 2:46 pm

Story
Sky is looking for his forever family! Sky is a very affectionate 3 year old lab mix. He lived happily in Puerto Rico for months with our foster after being surrendered because he was "too big". He has proven to be a wonderful boy who loves to be loved on! He is the type of dog that makes himself at home immediately! He will roll over for a belly rub, snag alllll the toys out of the toybox and happily investigate the house without being told to! He is curious and silly! He follows his humans from room to room just to be near them. When someone is clearly going out he will stand at the door waiting to go for a ride. He is a great traveler and does not get car sick ever after hours in the car and naps the ride away!!! Sky LOVES children and will intentionally go to where they are playing. He is learning to "sit" and 'stay" before eating and especially if he is about to be hooked up for a walk. He loves long walks and while he would love to have a fenced in yard he would also do great with an active owner who could be sure he gets his happy exercise. He did live among other dogs and cats in PR, and had one cat who was his best friend, but he seems to prefer a quieter home by himself and is threatened by larger dogs. He is potty trained, loves toys and deserves a family of his own that will advocate for him and set him up for success. That won't take much! He wants to love you!! Unless otherwise stated all dogs and puppies have been spayed/neutered, microchipped, 4DX tested(if age appropriate), Put on heartworm/flea/tick prevention, age appropriately vaccinated, dewormed, vet checked and flown from Puerto Rico.

Story
Ms. Azul... first lets get it out of the way, no filter here, those beautiful eyes are ALL natural! This beauty is roughly 1 year old, spayed UTD and on flea/tick/heartworm prevention. She weighs in at a petite 22 pounds and is believed to be a beagle/husky mix. Potty trained and crate trained, working hard at sit and stay. Still working on leash confidence but does very well in quiet areas with low street traffic. We have also worked with recall training and she has a lot of potential but a fenced in yard or tie out should be utilized to start because that beagle nose loves to take her wandering! She does well with cats and kids and would do well with an equally playful dog companion as she is still very much a puppy and loves to play. She even had a small intro to chickens and did well! Once you've finished admiring her eyes take a peak at those long legs, she is destined to be a hiking partner! She loves her people and LOVES the outdoors!! * Please note: All dogs are rescues so we often do not know the actual breeds but use an educated guess to tell you what they most look like. Our adoption fee is $400 and unless otherwise stated all dogs and puppies have been spayed/neutered, microchipped, 4DX tested(if age appropriate), Put on heartworm/flea/tick prevention, age appropriately vaccinated, dewormed, vet checked and flown from Puerto Rico.
