Story
This is a 1.5 yr old Maltese pure breed, about 7 lbs fully grown. She’s very friendly, calm, and easy to be around. She adjusts well, isn’t sensitive to noise, and does great with people. She’s healthy and potty trained. I don’t have her original vet paperwork, but she’s had no issues while in my care and has been doing well.She has a compact build and a naturally clean face and no tear staining, and just needs regular grooming to keep her looking her best.I’m currently watching her for a close friend who had to leave the country, and unfortunately she won’t be coming back due to visa issues, so I’m not able to keep her long term.I’m looking for a serious, stable home that understands the responsibility of caring for a Maltese and can give her consistent care and attention. I’m not in a rush finding the right fit matters more.** If you’re interested, please message me with a bit about your living situation, daily schedule, and experience with dogs

Story
Oreo is an 11 year old Shih Tzu mix that we got from a friend of the family at 8 weeks old. He is a calm, independent dog that has been with my family since he was a puppy. Unfortunately, we are looking to rehome him because I have a young child and am expecting another. Oreo is very independent and likes his space, and this doesn't go well with kids. I would love for him to find a home where he can live out his senior years and have the space he needs. An ideal adopter would be someone who can take the time to learn him, and who does not have young kids or people who would be too in his space. He is a great dog and I wish I could keep him, I hope to find him a new home where he can thrive.

Story
  Koko is the absolute perfect dog! He is both dog and cat friendly. He is not reactive at all. He simply wants to please people and be loved! He loves to play. He’s great on a leash and he is crate trained! He’s young at only about 1 year old. What else could you ask for really?   Koko has a very sad story for the short life he has lived. In the past place he lived there was a house fire, he luckily escaped and ran out. When one of our volunteers found him outside and found out where he came from , they spoke to the people and they told them they did not want him back. So not only did he escape a house, fire and survived, but then he had nowhere left to turn after. Koko needs your help now! He desperately needs a foster or forever home. He’s currently alone the majority of the day except for when our volunteers can go to take him out twice a day  . He just wants to love you.. He is neutered , microchipped and has received his vaccines.  Please give him a chance. Email nycatcoal@yahoo.com to inquire March 7, 2026, 4:54 pm

Story
Gizmo is a fun loving dog that requires a lot of attention. He is 5 years old (10/6/2015). Unfortunately, we are unable to provide him the time and attention that he deserves. It breaks our hearts, but we know it’s the best thing to do for him. We are hoping to find someone who has experienced with this breed. If you have a backyard that’s a plus because he enjoys running around loose and getting the exercise he needs. He is quite friendly, but might take a little time warming up to. He does not do well with other animals and can be a little too energetic around small children. Preferably a home where he is the center of attention.

Story
Hi my name is Rover, but they also call me Raggy. I am a male Alaskan malamute and I’m approximately 7-8 y/o and I’m neutered. My current family rescued me in Sept of 2020 when we were living in NY. Unfortunately they have to rehome me and are looking for a home where I will get lots of love, attention and the space that I need to run free (which I really enjoy), but most of all with a loving family who understands my needs. I’m a great dog and companion, but unfortunately I can no longer stay with my current family bc they are moving cannot bring me with them to the new place. Even if they could, there will not be adequate space for me. We are all extremely sad and and heartbroken and this has been a very hard decision for them. They have procrastinated for a couple of weeks in hopes that they’d be able to find a different place to live so that I can come along too, but unfortunately that didn’t work out. We are located in central Florida in the Poinciana area.
