Story
*New Intake* Theodore was one for the 4 OKC puppies saved after being dumped at a pet store. He is now with his foster for decompression and assessment. He is 10 months old. He is very shy and nervous and will need a family that understands he is trying his best! Please apply for Theodore! Dogos are a wonderful breed but we urge anyone interested to dig in and do a lot of research before deciding if they are a good fit for your home. They require a lot of attention and training with them never ends! Boundaries must be enforced and they often need reminders as they push past boundaires you set! Dogos are loving, kind and gentle but don't mistake that for weakness because they are equally powerful and intense as well! Everyone in the home must be on board with having a dogo and play a major role in their daily routines and training. Yes it is work, but the rewards are ten-fold! Lazy homes don't work for dogos as they need stimulation, exercise, and lots of attention too during their younger years. Our goal in rescue is to be as transparent as we can about each and every dog plus make sure new families really understand the needs of a dogo!

Story
Simon is currently a Florida boy living on the outskirts of Tampa after starting his life out in Oklahoma. He is a young 1 year goof who wants to give all kinds of kisses to his people. This dude had no manners whatsover and was basically a gigantic puppy that needed to learn! He still has a lot of learning to do but we can say that he loves to train now! At first it was a rocky road trying to teach him basic manners and that people are not ladders to climb! After learning some methods from a professional trainer we are proud to say that he is making good progress! Simon was good with his littermates when we took them all in and he has been good around other friendly dogs where he is now. We wish he could run and play but unfortunately he has a torn ACL and is preparing to have TPLO surgery. This came as a surprise to us and his $4,000 estimate did too but he is worth every penny! We expect him to make a full recovery and live a normal dogo life once this is all behind him. We are taking adoption applications for him now and expect that he would be healed and ready for a new home around mid September 2023. The best home for Simon would be one that is eager to continue training with him and taking him out to socialize. He is young enough to overcome his crappy start to life and with his happy-go-lucky attitude we know he will make a great new companion! He really if fun to train and hotdogs seem to have magical powers when it comes to his learning. Simon was one for the 4 OKC puppies saved after being dumped at a pet store. A kind man who didn't have a home of his own helped care for the dogs best he could on a piece of property until we were able to help. They were covered in ticks and our fosters helped get them cleaned up to start their new rescue lives. Currently the boys are all in Florida and Brittany is in Louisiana and you can check their profiles to see if they are still available to adopt too! Dogos are a wonderful breed but we urge anyone interested to dig in and do a lot of research before deciding if they are a good fit for your home. They require a lot of attention and training with them never ends! Boundaries must be enforced and they often need reminders as they push past boundaires you set!

Story
Sweet Dusty Recently, we took in the sweetest obese boxer mix named Dusty. Sadly, Dusty and his siblings went to a "rescue in rural north Florida when they were just puppies and never left. It was organized hoarding and his entire life has been spent in a dark kennel After noticing his rapid weight gain and realizing the urgency, a volunteer drove 6 hours each way to get him. About a year ago, he was just 60-65lbs and he arrived here weighing a whopping 112.8lbs He looked like he was going to BURST. He was overfed cheap dog food, had very little exercise and his recent bloodwork revealed that he had hypothyroid and needed medication urgently. We are ecstatic to announce that in just a few weeks with us, Dusty has lost 11 POUNDS! After thyroid medication, good food and lots of play time, he prances around like he just got his bikini body back While we would love to keep Dusty with us, we feel he could go on to his forever home to continue his weight loss journey. His thyroid medication is only about $20 every 6 weeks. He doesn't need prescription food, but does need good quality dog food to continue to help him. He is great with dogs, cats and people and is a true gem. He currently weighs around 100lbs, but should get back to 65-70 one day. He is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm negative and in Tampa. If you would like to adopt our sweet big boy, please complete an application. His adoption fee is $250. https://www.love4pawsfl.org/adoption-process

Story
*Foster home needed!* Sweet Stormy Our big, handsome boxer mix is looking for a home of his own, for the first time in his young life. Stormy came from North Florida where he was born in a "rescue facility" (along with his brothers Sonny & Dusty in L4P too) and forced to grow up there. He is surprisingly well socialized for not having seen the world. Stormy is a jolly guy. He's happy, personable and makes friends easy. He's big and strong on the leash, but such a nice dog. He doesn't require much, but his ideal home would have someone home more often than not. He likes companionship and to relax at home, but could also learn new things with his person. He is great with dogs of all sizes from small seniors to large playmates, both male and female. However, he isn't really into playing with other dogs. He's a great companion and would enjoy an easy going dog to coexist with or would be fine as your only dog. Stormy is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and heartworm negative. He is 6 years old (born January 2018), about 80lbs and currently in the Tampa area (spring hill). His adoption fee is $250. If you can give Stormy a forever home, please complete this application: https://www.love4pawsfl.org/adoption-process If you are interested in giving Stormy a foster home, please complete this application: https://www.love4pawsfl.org/foster *fosters must be in Tampa, Sarasota or in between.

Story
Sweet Sonny Sonny is one of our 3 boxer mix brothers that we just adore. They are sweet, harmless, big boys. Sonny is the smallest of the three brothers at about 65lbs and also the most reserved. He's such a sweet soul. The boys were born in North Florida at "rescue" facility and never allowed to be adopted out and leave. Sonny was born in January 2018 and has spent his entire 6 year life there. He came into our rescue in January and has since been working on coming out of his shell. We have learned that Sonny loves the backyard and gets happy zoomies out there. He has lived with all size dogs - small, medium and large - and currently lives with two cats. He is so submissive that the cats can stand next to him while he eats and he doesn't bat an eye. He's a gem. Sonny will need time to continue coming out of his shell and learning about the world. However, he's a great dog and an even better companion. He is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and HW-. He is on inexpensive thyroid medication (about $20 for 6 weeks), but that may not be needed forever. He is in St. Petersburg and his adoption fee is $250. If you can open your home to our sweet, shy boy, please complete an application: www.love4pawsfl.org/adoption-process
