Story
****IMPORTANT INFO - PLEASE READ BEFORE APPLYING**** 🧚‍♀️✨ Meet Tinkerbelle ✨🧚‍♀️ 1 year old | 15 lbs | Small breed mix Tinkerbelle is a tiny spark of joy wrapped in silky white fur with hints of apricot. While her exact breed is unknown, she appears to be a mix of Poodle, Maltese, Havanese, or Coton de Tulear — a perfect blend of fluffy, fun, and adorable 🧚 She is spunky, playful, and full of happy energy, but she’s also a total cuddle bug who loves being close to her people. 💕 She doesn’t mind being dressed up, loves toys and bones, and gets along wonderfully with all people and all dogs. *IMPORTANT*: We do want to be completely transparent — Tinkerbelle is a digger and an escape artist. Because of this, she needs a very secure home and a “helicopter” dog parent who takes safety seriously. She was trapped in Georgia before coming to us after being on the run for months and then was adopted, instructions weren't followed and she escaped again on the 3rd day. We trapped her a 2nd time. It is unlikely that she will fall for a trap again, so we need a seriously diligent dog parent. One who is actually terrified of their dog getting loose and killed. A lot of people take that lightly, but we need the person who is paranoid. No sugarcoating here — she’s worth the extra diligence! The good stuff: 🧚‍♂️ Crate trained 🧚‍♂️ House trained 🧚‍♂️ Listens well 🧚‍♂️ Loves playtime, toys, and wrestling 🧚‍♂️ Social, affectionate, and FUN The safest home options for her are: - An apartment or townhome where she is always leashed outside, ideally with access to a secure dog park for supervised play. - A home with a solid fenced yard that has dig-proof reinforcement installed along the entire perimeter. She is very sweet, but will only go to an adult home without kids so that no one lets her out. She would LOVE another dog to play with and someone who works from home if possible. 📍 Fostered in Clearwater, FL 💉 Spayed, vaccinated, microchipped & heartworm negative _ She is only a YEAR old. She could live up to 15-16 years old. An adopter must be able to reasonably commit to her full lifespan. 💲 Adoption fee: $400 ➡️ Application: www.love4pawsfl.org/adopt Tinkerbelle is a special little survivor who just needs the right setup to thrive. If you’re looking for a lively, loving companion and can provide a secure home, she may be your perfect match. 💖🐶

Story
Hi, I’m basically a tiny stand-up comedian in a fluffy puppy body. My timing? Impeccable. My material? Mostly slapstick, zoomies, and the occasional “who stole the sock?” mystery. I’m still learning the ropes of this whole “being a well-behaved dog” thing, so I’ll need some training, patience, and a good sense of humor. I might accidentally turn your favorite shoes into chew toys or test out my latest routine at 3am—but I promise, I’ll keep you laughing along the way. If you’re looking for a sweet, silly sidekick who will fill your days with joy, chaos, and lots of love, I’m ready to take the stage in your home.

Story
Hi there, I’m Morris! I’m a 10-year-old Maltese boy who just got a fresh start — rescued from a local shelter and given a much-needed makeover. My fur was shaved down due to some serious matting, but it’s already growing back beautifully. I am the sweetest little love bug! adore people, get along wonderfully with other dogs, and ride like a champ in the car. I have not met any cats or kids yet but with my gentle demeanor I might be ok with both (need to meet first). I sleep soundly in my dog bed and have a calm, easygoing nature that makes me a joy to have around. A few things my foster family wants you to know: I’m still working on my housebreaking — I’ll do my business outside if you take me there, so I just need a patient person to help me build that routine. I also have some eye issues that require regular cleaning, but my foster mom is hopeful that the right meds and a good diet will have me looking bright-eyed in no time. If you’re ready to open your heart to a fluffy senior gentleman, apply to adopt me through our website, www.floridacockerrescue.org Adoption fee: $325

TO GET INTO THE APPLICANT QUEUE, PLEASE COMPLETE A FREE, NON-BINDING APPLICATION ASAP AT WWW.GOFAR.DOG UNDER ADOPT - EMAILS AND VOICEMAILS CAN TAKE 24-72 HOURS TO RESPOND DUE TO HIGH VOLUME - TY! Hello! My name is Franz. I'm an adorable little Morkie puppy! I was surrendered to the rescue and am estimated at around 3 months old as of the end of March. I currently weigh 6-7 lbs.My adoption fee is more than the other puppies and dogs at my rescue, but I'm told that I'm a more 'desirable' puppy than my other friends who are not as fortunate and will be at the rescue much longer than me, waiting for their forever home. My adopter will know that their fee will be helping support the other 200 or so animals at the rescue and not lining a breeder's pockets. My $1500 adoption fee includes vet exam, up to date vaccines, deworming, initial grooming, microchip, and neuter at one of my rescue's vets (Fort Myers, Port Charlotte, Miami, Naples or Orlando) when I'm closer to 6 months of age. If you are interested in adopting me, please complete a free, non-binding application at www.gofar.dog under Adopt as little ones like me get adopted quickly.If you have questions, email my rescue at adoptions@gofar.dog. If you'd like to experience all the love I have, and want to make me part of your family, please complete the adoption application by pasting this link into your browser: https://service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=sm2546&method=online_form_html&formid=21
