Story
PLEASE READ THE ANIMAL’S PROFILE AND ALL NOTES BELOW BEFORE APPLYING! 🤎 Meet Changity! 🤎 Also known as "Chickity China the Chinese Chicken" according to his foster mom. 😂 Changity is now 6 months old, and this handsome guy has come such a long way. He’s still a shy boy when meeting new people, but once he realizes he’s safe, he is the sweetest, most affectionate little guy. He loves being close to his people and would happily spend his day right by your side. He’s fully potty trained AND crate trained, and he’s doing great on regular puppy food now — no more prescription diet needed! 🙌🏼 Changity is great with other dogs and would really benefit from having a confident, friendly dog around to help him continue building his confidence. He’s naturally gentle and submissive and does best when he has another dog to show him that the world isn’t so scary. He is fearful of children, so he needs an adult-only home. He can also be nervous around men, but he does well with slow, patient introductions and given the time to warm up on his own terms. 🤎 Green Flags: ✔️ Fully potty trained ✔️ Fully crate trained ✔️ Great with other dogs ✔️ Sweet, affectionate, and cuddly once he trusts you ✔️ Gentle and submissive ✔️ Has made a lot of progress with his confidence 🤎 Things to Know: ✔️ Adult-only home ✔️ Fearful of children ✔️ Nervous around men, but does well with slow introductions ✔️ Needs someone patient who will let him warm up at his own pace ✔️ Has a history of seizures and is on Keppra 🤎 His Ideal Home: Changity needs a calm, patient adult home that understands that trust takes time. He isn't going to be the dog who immediately runs up to every stranger with a wagging tail, but once he decides you're his person, you're going to have a very loyal little shadow. A confident, friendly dog in the home would be a huge bonus for him. More than anything, he needs someone who won't rush him and will continue helping him learn that new people and new experiences aren't something to be afraid of. He's already come such a long way. Now he just needs the right person to help him keep going. 🤎🐾 ***PLEASE NOTE: Changity has experienced seizures in the past and is currently on Keppra. He has been doing well and will need his medication continued as prescribed. His medical history and seizure management can be discussed in more detail with interested adopters. Interested in Changity? Please submit an application to learn more about him and his medical history! Adoption FEE: $350, which includes his neuter, microchip, and vaccines.

5yr old Trigger is looking for his new home! Sweet and well mannered boy who loves to run and play! Not house trained and has some accidents in crate but is good in it otherwise and walks good on/off leash. Wonderful recall and follows commands well. Lives on working farm with horses, cows and chickens so is used to the fast pace but still has a prey drive for the birds. Same gender aggressive and a little more shy than his siblings he'll need someone to take the time to socialize him. Single pet household is preferred at first.

Story
5yr old Daisy is looking for a new home! No fault to her own just do not have the time she requires. Very energetic and playful! Wonderful manners in her crate and on/off leash but is not house trained. This ball of energy needs lots of exercise and will need to be socialized with new people and animals. She does live on a working farm around horses, cows, and chickens so she is used to a busy environment. Wonderful recall and follows commands well. Currently same gender aggressive and has a very high prey drive so she would do best in a single pet home for now. Easy to groom and handle, she is a lovebug who just needs some extra time spent with her. Picture is her(smaller) and her brother Bear who is also available (also trigger and blue) She could be adopted along side any brother

Story
5yr old Blue is ready for a new home! No fault of his own just needs more time spent with him. What a people pleaser! He's a huge goofball and cuddler who loves playing fetch. Very well manned in cage and on/off leash but is not house trained. Wonderful recall and follows commands well. Lives on a working farm around horses, cows and chickens so he's used to a busy environment but still has a prey drive for the birds. Will need socialization with strangers and other animals so a single pet home would be best at first. While he doesn't need someone with experience with the breed he does have aggression with the same gender dogs and will need someone who can work with him on that and give him plenty of exercise.

Please contact Desiree (lostangelsanimalrescue04@yahoo.com) for more information about this pet.Helloooooo nice person!  I’m Mila, who are you? You say you’re looking for a dog???  That’s amazing!  Because I am a dog just trying to make fetch happen! I consider myself a treat connoisseur and can spot one (or a squirrel) a hundred yards out all the while saving the world, one bark at a time. I’m a 2 year old gal, formerly down on my luck, currently hanging with Lost Angels Animal Rescue in Tampa, Florida, just waiting for my soul mate to realize I’m here.  Everyone says I have an enormous heart and my potential for loyalty and devotion is practically bottomless. I hope you reach out because I think we’re going to be best friends FOREVER!   ADOPTION FEE: $300.00March 9, 2026, 9:32 pm

Story
Please contact Desiree (lostangelsanimalrescue04@yahoo.com) for more information about this pet.This is Cocoa a stunning 2 - 3 year old liver colored female GSD that is seeking her new person.  She found herself in a shelter and was extremely thin when she came in to rescue. She spend 10 days boarding at a veterinary hospital due to us not having an available foster.  She also completed a board and train program.  Once she was placed with her foster it was very apparent that there was an underlying health issue that had caused her extreme weight loss and was soon diagnosed as an EPI dog. Good news is it's easily managed with an enzyme powder sprinkled on each meal.  She has already gone from 50.8 lbs to 80 lbs in just 5 weeks. Cocoa is very intelligent and eager to please. She would do best with an experienced handler, no kids and an only pet.  She can be selective of people and seems to do best with females. Her training with Kyser K9 is life long and a new owner will be able to work with them and have access to training sessions. For more information, please email lostangelsanimalrescue04@yahoo.com or submit an online application at www.lostangelsanimalrescue.org to pursue an adoption.  Adoption Donation: $300.00 March 9, 2026, 9:32 pm

Story
Meet Healy! At just 10 months old, Healy was dumped and left to roam for five days before being rescued by St. Francis. No one came looking for her - but she hasn't let that dim her bright spirit. Healy is incredibly loyal, smart, and eager to please. She's learned her basic commands and will thrive with continued training and consistency. She bonds deeply with her person and loves with her whole heart. She needs a 6-ft secure fenced yard and another big, friendly dog to play with. No cats (unless the kitties are playful with a big dog), or small dogs, or small children (she's still big and bouncy!). Preferably a female-led home. She has zero aggression - unless you're a stuffed toy. ;) With patience and love, Healy will be the most faithful companion you've ever had. Please visit our website www.stfrancisrescue.org to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs and cats.
