Story
Mimi is an 8-year-old Jack Russell Terrier mix, weighing about 25 pounds. She loves to lay in the grass and soak up the sun. Or snuggle in a nice bed. She does very well on car rides and during bath time. Being an older lady, she’s not interested in toys or playing with other dogs. She gets along with cats. She will also share space with other dogs and gets along well with them,. but she doesn't seem to really care either way. Lol She isn’t very affectionate (no kisses or cuddles), but I think she just has never learned how, and once she experiences love she will blossom into a wonderful companion. She is heartworm negative and on monthly prevention. Her adoption donation is $300 which includes her spay, vaccinations and microchip. Mimi is currently in a foster home, and we are requesting an approved application prior to a meet and greet. Please give this sweet girl the forever home she is anxiously waiting for her Forever Home! https://www.aforeverhomeanimalrescue.org/store/p190/Mimi.html We are only able to adopt within the state of Florida. We have a page on our website that explains our adoption process, and contains a link to our adoption application. Here is the link: https://www.aforeverhomeanimalrescue.org/adoption-information.html

Story
Sushi is being fostered in CT. Sushi loves to cuddle and would love to have her own person and family; however she would do best as an only dog so she can get all the love to herself. She travels great in the car and will either sit on your lap for a short trip or in the backseat with a doggy car seat. She is housetrained and will go to the door to let you know she has to go potty. She eats like a champ and takes her insulin well. She also does great at the vet and loves her vet clinic friends. She sleeps through the night and is very easy going. Sushi is not interested in toys but loves to chew on vet approved bones. She loves to sleep on the couch with a comfy blanket, and she uses dog steps to get on. She can safely jump down as long as the floor is not slippery. I have a dog stroller for Sushi and she happily will sit in it and go for a ride or sleep in it when I am sitting at the computer. She enjoys going for short walks and gets excited when you put her leash on! She also does a very funny trot out in the backyard. BDRA has voted against the use of electrical fencing effective immediately.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Buddy! Buddy is a sweet 5-year-old Jack Russell Terrier who is looking for a loving, understanding forever home. He walks nicely on a leash and truly enjoys going for car rides, making him a great companion for outings and adventures. Buddy’s happiest place is right by his people’s side. He does not like being confined in a crate and prefers to be free and involved in daily life with his humans. Because of this, Buddy would do best in a home where he can spend plenty of time with his person and not be crated. Buddy can be uncomfortable around most men, so we are seeking a female-only home where he will feel safe and secure. He is also very selective about other dogs and would need to be the only dog in the household to truly thrive.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.January 3, 2026, 11:47 am

Story
Apply to Adopt Me! Meet Sherman. An approx. 5-year-old neutered male JRT mix. Sherman is what we call a low rider due to his short legs, which doesn't stop him from jumping onto the couch to snuggle with his foster mom. Sherman has come a long way in the short time he's been with his foster family, but he is still cautious of new people and wary of men. Sherman was most likely not well socialized and needs someone who will show him patience and love as he continues to come out of his shell. He loves women and would most likely do best in a female only home and because he needs a quieter, slower paced environment, a home with children would not be an ideal situation. Sherman does love other dogs and has fun playing with his foster brother and sisters. He runs around the house wagging his tail, trying to get them to play. He really has a silly side that will come out even more as he learns to trust. He has a very JRT personality and at times tries to be bossy with the other dogs so dogs with a more submissive personality would be a better fit. Someone who has JRT breed experience is important as well. Sherman is crate trained and housebroken. He is fearful of walking on a leash, but we are working on making him more comfortable with it. He rides quietly in the car too. Overall, he is a very sweet, goofy little boy that just needs to find someone who will help him become more confident. If you live in the Central Florida area and think this goofy little low rider would be a good fit in your home, please fill out an application and tell us more about yourself. December 22, 2025, 3:00 pm
