Story
ASPEN IS ALL EARS! 🐾 ADOPT ME Meet Aspen, an extraordinarily handsome 3-year-old all-white Shepherd mix who is waiting for his forever family! At 70 lbs, he’s a big guy with an even bigger heart. 🤍 Why you’ll fall in love with Aspen: • A Total Goofball: He’s sweet, trusting, and guaranteed to make you smile every single day. • The Perfect "White Shadow": Whether you’re chilling at a coffee shop, or running errands, Aspen is right by your side. • Social Butterfly: He thrives with other dogs and would LOVE a doggy sibling to play and burn off energy with. 🐕 • Smart & Gentle: He walks beautifully on a leash and loves learning new tricks. His Ideal Home: Aspen does great with big dogs, small dogs, and older kids (14+). Because he can get a little "zoomie-happy" and his breed is a little mouthy when playing he forgets his size, a home without small children is best. Ready to meet your new best friend? 🖤 Contact SafePawsRescue.com Our adoption process includes a home visit and veterinarian and/or personal check. Safe Paws Rescue is a small rescue in St. Petersburg, FL so we accept inquiries from residents in Pinellas County only, please.

Story
Hi-My name is Oliver.I LIKE: treats more than toys but I love to play (especially with the water hose)!I KNOW: I need to work on my leash skills but the volunteers say I am improving. They recommend a harness when we go for a walk so our time together will be more enjoyable. I like to talk to other dogs so apartment living would not be ideal.***An adopter with big dog experience would be a good fit for this big guy.*** IF YOU`RE LOOKING FOR SOMEONE: to join you on an adventure, I`m always ready, let`s go!I AM SPECIAL BECAUSE: sometimes I act silly just to make you laugh.

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: $300.00August 6, 2025, 3:53 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 October 2, 2025, 9:13 pm

Story
Dyna came to us as we took her in when she was about 5 months old! A family of three kiddos, two other dogs and two cats, took no time to become family. She is now 3.5 years old! Still full of lots of energy and a fenced in backyard to run often to get her energy out is a MUST! She is a great listener but you must stay on her commands at all times. Loves to cuddle! Vocal will talk to you if you ask her something ! Doesn’t really bark unless something unusual is going on to make sure to let you know! Once she learns her boundaries in the yard she is very good at staying within those boundaries. Within the last year been changes in the home and a move into an apartment which has left her very sad to not be outside where she loves to relax and missing a backyard to run and play in! FENCED IN YARD is a must! Lots of LOVE to give is a must! Small rehoming fee just to make sure she is going to a good home, may be waived if I find the right family.
