Story
CHARLIE (and Muffin) Grateful Paws has JUST been made aware of TWO adult Maltese who are now on hold at Animal Control but will be at the Humane Society of Highland County in Sebring, FL in 5 days.  7/09/26 ish   Their elder owner died unexpectedly, and the granddaughter was not in a position to care for them. They are a bonded pair; MUFFIN is 12 years old, 13 lbs., spayed, and has only one eye. CHARLIE is 9 years, neutered, and weighs 7 lbs.   Both are in good health, housebroken, calm and quiet - and well behaved but Charlie isn't fond of other male dogs. After a life of love and luxury, they will NOT do well in a shelter!   If you or someone you know would welcome this pair into their home, PLEASE reach out to Alexandra at the Humane Society. It's not posted on their website, but I am pretty sure the adoption fee will be nominal - The Humane Society of Highlands County, 7421 Haywood Taylor Blvd., Sebring, FL 33876 www.humanesocietyofhighlandscounty.org - 863-655-1522. and PLEASE share this post far & wide.    July 6, 2026, 9:49 am

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Phee Phee! PheePhee came to PRBJ with her best friend, Lucy, when their owner's health issues prevented her from caring for the 2 girls. They are not bonded, but we would love to see them both go into the same home.   PheePhee is good with kids, cats, and even larger dogs. She is great on car rides. She is not really playful but will  occasionially play with soft, squeaking toys. PheePhee is couch potato and just enjoys sitting with her human and getting lots of petting.  Like many dogs, PheePhee is not happy about storms and likes to be able to be with her best canine friend or human to get comfort. PheePhee knows a few  words such as 'eat,' 'treat,' 'outside,' 'that's all,' and 'no.'As PheePhee lived with just one person, she takes time to get to know new people and will run away or bark until she warms up to you.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.July 22, 2026, 8:38 am

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Currently fostering at the Aloft Hotel Downtown OrlandoMeet Lucy! Lucy came to PRBJ with her best friend, PheePhee, when their owner's health issues prevented her from caring for the 2 girls. The girls are not bonded, but we would love to see them both go into the same home.   Lucy is playful and does well crated, on leash, and in the car- making her a fantastic travel companion. Her owner commented that she:*Is not big on long walks*Does occasionally use potty pads in the house*Gets nervous around smaller kids because they move too quickly *She lived with cats and a larger dog, but did not really care for them and would growl With this in mind, we are recommending a home with adults or considerate older kids and as the only pet/with a dog her size. Lucy knows the word 'treats' and will be expecting one if you say it. She also knows 'eat,' 'outside,' and 'that's all.'  Like PheePhee and many dogs, she is afraid of storms and looks to her human or her canine friend for comfort.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.July 22, 2026, 8:38 am

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Online Adoption Application Meet Molly! At 16 years young, Molly has perfected the art of being the ideal companion. This sweet senior girl is looking for a cozy place to spend her golden years surrounded by love, soft beds, and her favorite people. She is a Maltese and weighs 13 lbs. Molly is low-energy and enjoys the simple things in life. She's not interested in running marathons, swimming laps, or chasing squirrels, she would rather leave that to the young pups. Instead, she'd much rather relax by your side, soak up affection, and enjoy a leisurely stroll when the mood strikes. Don't let her age fool you, though—she can still keep up when it's time for a little adventure.Molly loves people and gets along wonderfully with other dogs. Her gentle, easygoing nature makes her a joy to be around, and she has a special way of making everyone she meets fall in love with her. If you're looking for a loyal companion who will happily share quiet moments, warm cuddles, and unconditional love, Molly may be the perfect match for you. Give this sweet senior the loving retirement she deserves.Apply to adopt at: AnimalAdvocatesFL.org  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.July 21, 2026, 5:43 pm

Story
Hi, I'm Daisy!  I’m a tiny, 8-lb Maltese/Poodle blend girl and I'm 10 years old. My hearing and vision aren't what they used to be, but I don’t let that stop me from exploring. Now I just need to discover a very special, patient family who will love me just the way I am. Favorite Things: Daisy LOVES her food and loves soaking up attention. Toys and playing are not really her thing, but exploring her surroundings is high on her list of favorite activities. She also loves being around her person and will sit next to them as much as possible (and extra close in bed at night). Training & Manners:  Daisy is working on her house training and will need to be taken outside frequently.  Due to her vision, she doesn’t do well on a leash so will need more practice with leash walking, and her hearing sometimes makes it difficult to communicate with her. The good news is that she is highly food-motivated to improve her manners.  She is verbal when she wants food but is otherwise quiet. Health and Care: Daisy is spayed, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped. She is on daily drops for dry eyes and takes her monthly preventatives for fleas and heartworm, along with medications for anxiety. She will likely require professional grooming every 6-8 weeks to keep her looking and feeling her best. Other Animals:  Daisy has experience with other small dogs and cats.  Children: This gentle, curious gal would do best in a home with respectful teens only.    Ideal Home: Daisy would do well in an apartment, condo or single-family home.  Her “dream” home would be a house without steps (although she is tiny enough to carry) and no pool (for safety reasons with her vision impairment).  A fenced yard would keep her safe and give her room for her adventurous explorations. She has free rein of her foster home and can be left for several hours without issues. She sleeps in the “people bed” at night and is happy to cozy up to her person. Overall: Daisy is a great and loyal companion asking only for food, love, attention, and patience (and creativity when it comes to communication.)  Could special Daisy be the one for you? If so, visit www.PoodleandPoochRescue.org and submit an adoption application. If it looks like a good fit, her foster family will reach out with more information. Her adoption donation is $175. ##2667454##

These pups are in Eustis, Florida too!

Story
Meet Coco, a sweet and charming 14-year-old Yorkie-Bichon mix weighing 11 pounds who is looking for a loving forever home to spend her golden years. This adorable little lady is housebroken and enjoys the company of both dogs and children, making her a wonderful companion for the right family. While Coco does not get along with cats, she more than makes up for it with her affectionate personality and gentle spirit. She loves being around her people and is ready to share her heart with a family who will cherish her. As a senior dog, Coco does have some joint issues in her back legs, but she doesn't let that stop her from enjoying life and soaking up all the love and attention she can get. She would thrive in a home that understands her needs and is willing to provide a comfortable environment where she can relax and enjoy her retirement years. Coco's adoption donation is $250, which includes her spay, vaccinations, and microchip, and she is heartworm-negative and on monthly prevention to ensure she stays healthy and happy. If you’re interested in giving Coco the second chance she truly deserves, please visit Adoption Information to learn more and submit an application. Coco is ready to trade her past for a future filled with love, comfort, and cuddles—could you be the one to give this sweet senior girl the happy ending she deserves? 🐾💕
