Story
Starla is an 18-month-old German Shepherd/Irish Setter mix with a gorgeous all-black coat and an incredibly sweet, gentle personality. She weighs about 74 lbs and loves being close to her people — whether that’s joining you for a walk, lounging by your side, or just keeping you company around the house. She’s a playful, loyal young dog with a lot of love to give. Starla gets along well with people and would thrive in a home where she can enjoy attention, regular exercise, and a calm environment. Starla does have some allergies, which is one of the reasons her current family in Sanford is seeking a new home for her — ideally one where her environment and routine can better support her comfort. With the right setting and a little care, she’ll be a happy, healthy companion. Interested in meeting Starla? Reach out to learn more or arrange a visit — she can’t wait to meet her future family!

Story
Apply to Adopt Me! FOSTER, FOSTER-TO-ADOPT, or ADOPTER NEEDED FOR MAVERICK This handsome guy is Maverick! His name is strong and regal, and it is very fitting for this amazing German Shepherd. He may be full GSD, and looks to be, but since we don't know, we are calling him a mix. This approx. 3-year-old, 58-lb. boy is always alert and knows your every move. He is a protector of his family. His beautiful brown eyes give looks of adoration at times and a gentleness that submits to petting and loving. His eyes and ears show the intensity for his devotion to carrying out his purpose in guarding and loving his forever family. He is very intelligent, as we have seen Maverick adapt to his foster home quickly. Maverick loves to cuddle and lay beside you on the sofa or the floor, wherever you are, he will be there. He wants to always be near his family. When you chill, he chills!  sleeps through the night and gently wakes in the morning when his foster parents get up. Maverick does not bother anything in the home. He loves to play ball, but that is best done outdoors, because he gets too excited in the house. Maverick was found as a stray and ended up in the shelter, where he participated in social groups with other dogs, where he did well. He wants to play with other dogs but his current fosters don't have another dog. Cats are unknown so, due to his size, we will not adopt him to a home with a cat. Maverick is a joy to walk around the neighborhood and to take on hikes. He doesn’t pull on his leash and is always happy to accompany you. He’s great in the car as well. We have not observed him around children, but he has walked in busy areas and hasn't reacted to anyone. He is so affectionate that sometimes he’ll lay his head on your lap or yelp to get your attention. He likes to play with interactive toys inside and would definitely like to play ball outside in a fenced yard. True to the GSD breed, Maverick is a guard dog and will bark to protect his family when strangers come to the door or enter the home. He is currently undergoing training to better equip him to handle these situations.  We are requiring an adopter with GSD experience. He is currently in a foster home but we are looking for an active foster or adopter for him with a secure minimum 6ft. fenced yard. Maverick can't wait to find his forever, active family. If you live in the Central Florida/Orlando area and believe you have the perfect home for Maverick, complete an app and tell us more about your family. December 13, 2025, 5:10 pm

Story
Apply to Adopt Me! Needed: Foster-to-Adopt for Chance Meet Chance – Your Loyal, Goofy Companion! Chance is a 2- to 3-year-old, 90lb. German Shepherd with a heart full of love and a playful spirit. He’s already completed training, has wonderful manners, and comes with continued training support to help him succeed in his new home. This sweet boy is great with other dogs and loves to play. He can be a little shy with men at first, but warms up quickly and will soon show off his goofy, affectionate side. Chance is eager for a home where he can be both your loyal companion and your best adventure buddy. Chance’s journey hasn’t been easy—he was found as a stray and narrowly escaped being euthanized at a training facility in north Florida due to lack of space. Thankfully, his future is now bright, and he’s ready to start the next chapter in a foster or foster-to-adopt home. He will be fully vetted in his foster home prior to adoption, so he’s ready to move in and be part of your family. All Chance needs now is someone to give him the love, security and companionship he’s been waiting for. Could that someone be you? Chance loves toys, is house trained, crate trained and walks well on leash. He has not been exposed to cats while with our rescue. He needs a secure fenced yard and someone with GSD experience is preferred. If the home has kids, it's best they be 12 or older. If you live in the Central Florida/Orlando area and believe you have the perfect home for Chance, please complete and application and tell us more about your family.
