Marz is a wonderful loving dog. She has a calm demeanor and would be a lap dog, if you let her. rarely barks, only when needing attention such as to go out to potty. She is friendly with adults, as well as children, but is territorial when it comes to other dogs, she’s a good old soul that would make a wonderful new companion.

Story
Meet Crystal. What do you see when you look at Crystal? A dog that had a horrible person chop off her ears? A dog that was left inside a crate at an abandoned property? You know what we see? Unconditional love! Once she gets to know you, this girl wants affection and love so badly. She loves belly rugs and snuggles. To us, she is beautiful both inside and out. You will see that too when you come meet her and give her a chance. Crystal goes home with a volunteer on a regular basis and she is a super easy house guest. She is deaf, so she doesn't bark and she sleeps most of the time. She loves car rides and is the perfect dog to run errands with. She also loves walks but the summer heat is starting to affect her so they have to be cut shorter than in the winter months. Despite the heat, she still loves sunbathing. Crystal is not fond of other dogs. She can go for walks with them but not exist together in a house or come face to face. She is obsessed with cats so if you are interested in her, you can't have any of those either. Crystal has cancer (cutaneous hemangiosarcoma). It manifests itself with sores and blood blisters on her stomach and these will pop occasionally and bleed. Eventually the disease will go to her spleen. Her survival can be a few years with this type of cancer by the time it has spread to the spleen. She has had the cancer for many years and has had blood blisters removed twice, but it has still not spread to her spleen and her most recent blood work was excellent. Are you the person to love and provide care for Crystal for her remaining years? If so, please submit the adoption application (no commitment) and an adoption counselor will be in touch.

Story
Hi, I'm Eloy, a big 92 lb. double pirate Dogo Argentino currently chilling in Tampa, FL with a heart full of love and some rough patches behind me. Mid-October, I was rescued from the countryside around Ft. Meade, FL, after a kind family found me wandering and took me in to make sure I was safe. I wasn’t in great shape—I could barely open my eyes because they hurt so much. Turns out, I had bilateral entropion, which meant my eyelids were causing me pain and damage. It got so bad I didn’t feel like eating. Thankfully, the vet rushed me in for surgery, and I’m already feeling so much better. I also found out I have heartworms, which wasn’t a surprise, but the good news is I’ve already started my treatment. It’ll be a few months of taking it easy, but I’m already on the road to recovery. Now that I’m safe and more comfortable at the farm kennels, my personality is starting to show. I’m around 5 to 6 years old, quick to learn, and I’m definitely a big fan of affection! Scratch my ears, rub my belly, and I’m a happy guy. I just started giving out kisses and showing off my big bear hugs, too! So far, I’ve been pretty calm around the other dogs at the kennel. I’m not looking for trouble like some do and, honestly, just taking my time getting used to everything while my body heals. My vision’s still a bit blurry, but it seems to be improving every day. I love my walks, mealtimes, and treats—and I keep my kennel neat and clean (unlike some of the other pups here, if you know what I mean). I’m expected to fully recover from my eye surgery and beat the heartworms, too, thanks to early treatment. Just six days after surgery, I’ve already got great energy! For the next few months, I need to keep it low-key as I heal, so I’d love a calm home where I can chill, go on walks, and explore a little. The team here thinks I might have been a hunter before because I perk up when I catch a whiff of wild boar! But mostly, I’m just your typical awesome Dogo Argentino looking for a place to call home. I have basic training and get along with older kids. If you think you could be that special foster or forever home for me, I’d love to meet you! Apply to adopt: dcdogos.org/adopt

**Hey There! I'm Liza: Your Future Comedic Companion!**  Also, I am the DC Dogos Rescue COVER MODEL for our 2025 Calendar! I will do autographs by request :) Hi, I’m Liza, and let me tell you, I’m one hilarious, young, and healthy gal! At just about a year old, currently in sunny Tampa, FL, I’m bursting with playful energy and, well, still learning my manners. But hey, who needs manners when you’re this cute? I’ve already mastered the art of giving you my paw for hotdogs or other tasty treats. I’m working on meeting new friends and, oh boy, am I smitten with Simon! He’s just as wild and fun as I am. My humans are helping me socialize with other dogs, and they think I’ll do great. They recently gave me this weird ball that makes noises – I kicked it around like a soccer pro! My zoomies, especially in the mornings, are a sight to behold. I’ll run straight at you and then punk you out at the last second! I’m super fast, so a yard would be perfect for me to stretch my legs. I need an active home that’s ready to keep up with my energy and help me with my training. I love going on leash walks now – I used to be like a fish out of water, but now I’m a dream to walk! My current humans think I’d be awesome at agility work. I’m athletic and would thrive with someone dedicated to my training. I’ve come a long way since they found me, and a dog friend would be great for me too. I have so much fun with Simon, and I’m sure I’d love another buddy just as much. When I first met men, I wasn’t a fan, but with some training and patience, I’ve started giving them kisses! That was a huge step for me, and I keep hitting new milestones every day. I’m pretty incredible, if I do say so myself. I was one of five dogs found dumped in Naples, FL, and the shelter picked us all up. We don’t know if we were from the same person or related, but I’m so grateful to have a second chance at life. My past is behind me, and I’m ready to start a new chapter with a loving family. So, if you’re looking for a playful, funny, and affectionate companion, I’m your girl. I can’t wait to meet you and make you laugh every day! Apply to adopt: dcdogos.org/adopt

Story
Meet Guin Some of you may remember the two sisters (Rory & Lorelai) from DeKalb County Shelter in Georgia who were once posted in search of foster homes. They came into the shelter as strays, both were emaciated and in a neglected state. Although no foster offers came through at the time, both girls were eventually adopted by the public. Recently, Lorelai now lovingly called Guin, was surrendered to us when it became clear she wasn’t the right fit for her adopter’s pack. Guin was the more reserved of the two sisters and often relied on her sibling for reassurance, so being without her was understandably difficult at first. She spent time in temporary boarding, where she was met with patience, kindness, and love. During that time, Guin began to decompress, settle in, and form a trusting bond with her caretaker. Shortly after, she transitioned into a loving foster home, and that’s when her transformation truly began. This beautiful girl has blossomed far faster than we ever imagined. Once shy and unsure, Guin is now a happy, increasingly confident dog who is coming into her own. Guin is thriving in her foster home, where her canine siblings have helped show her the ropes. She approaches new experiences with growing confidence, and her sweet personality shines brighter every day. Her foster parents adore watching her learn how to be a dog and genuinely enjoy life, she has a gentle, soulful heart. We estimate Guin to be around 3 years old. Guin has formed a special bond with her male Dogo foster brother and would do best in a home with another friendly dog, preferably a male. She’s wonderful with children, walks nicely on a leash, and is both house and crate-trained. Her history with cats is unknown. Guin is ready for her forever home, one where her soft heart and growing confidence can continue to flourish. 🐾 Apply to adopt: dcdogos.org/adopt Location: Loxahatchee, FL

Story
Julian’s story is one of heartbreak and resilience. He and his siblings were abandoned by their breeder as young pups and left to survive on the streets for over a year. The neighborhood became their lifeline, kind residents left out food and tried to help, and over time the dogs slowly learned to trust the people who kept them alive. Everyone knew these pups and hoped they would one day find safety and love. Once animal control picked them up, we stepped in right away and brought Julian and his brother into our rescue. To no surprise, both boys tested positive for heartworms, but they’ve since completed treatment and are now healthy, safe, and ready for forever homes. ________________________________________ About Julian Julian is an incredibly sweet, affectionate Velcro boy who loves being close to his people. He’s smart, eager to please, and already learning basic obedience. He walks nicely on a leash and is both crate-trained and house-trained. We estimate Julian to be around 1.5 – 2 years old. He’s vocal in the cutest ways, he’ll let you know when he needs to go out or when he’s asking for attention. Julian has a calm, easygoing temperament and would do best in a home with a consistent routine, daily exercise, and mental enrichment. He does well with friendly female dogs and has shown neutral behavior toward other dogs while at the shelter, though he hasn’t had full interactions due to his heartworm treatment recovery. Like most Dogos, he would do best in a home with the opposite sex. Because we don’t know his history with children, he’ll need a home without young kids. ________________________________________ Julian has survived the hardest chapter of his life. Now he just needs someone to give him the loving, secure home he’s been waiting for. Located in Port St Lucie, FL Apply to adopt: dcdogos.org/adopt Location: Port St. Lucie, FL

Story
You know those dogs you meet with giant heads you can’t wait to squish. Well our Barney would be the perfect candidate for best squish. He is a gorgeous one year old, brindle Mastiff mix, who is as goofy and silly as they come. Barney loves being outside, and can’t wait to go play, or roll around in our yards. He adores company in the yards and we have been looking for a pup who can match his energy. While he loves playing with other dogs, Barney does have some health concerns that have limited his play time and partners. He does need a harness when walking as pressure on his trachea does cause him to cough, sounding like grumbling, even if it’s not. He also has Hip Dysplasia which has him putting in a bit more effort than his counterparts when out and about. This doesn’t stop him though, as he is still young and full of energy. He is always excited when he gets a new toy, and has shown us his defluffing skills on his stuffies. He is not very treat motivated and does better with positive reinforcement. He is happy to roll over and get belly rubs, or try to lay down in your lap. He has no clue how big he actually is! Barney would make a wonderful addition to any family, looking for a sweet, playful, silly big dog. If you are interested in meeting this handsome boy, please fill out an adoption application (no commitment) at Satchelslastresort.org.

Boxer Mixed Breed (Medium)

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Brandy was originally rescued from a death sentence by her foster mom wanting to make sure Brandy received the medical care she needed for a torn ACL. Once the medical care was completed the family had hopes of rehoming her due to increased agression toward their first dog who is anxious and deaf. After being unsuccessful in finding her a home, they reached out to Satchel's for help. Brandy appears to have had a bad start to life but received care and love in her last home and is now looking to continue that love in a forever home. Although it was a difficult decision to give Brandy up, the home was just not the right one for Brandy and they knew Satchel's could help find that perfect home. Brandy takes her time warming up to you. She wants to know you’ll be good to her before she opens her heart to you. Once Brandy gets comfortable with you her personality comes out. She is playful and loves to give you hugs! Brandy walks very well on the leash, and she knows basic tricks: sit, lay down and shake. Brandy may be best suited as the only dog in the house because of the reactivity shown in her last home. But, there is a possibility that with the right pairing she will thrive with a doggy sibling! Note from a volunteer: "Brandy is smart, smart, smart smart! Maybe the smartest belle at satchels. She is an exceptionally obedient sweetpea. Petite and loves to fetch." For an appointment to meet Brandy, please submit the adoption application (no commitment) found at satchelslastresort.org.
