Lambeau is a lovable 9yr old pup. He gets along with other dogs and loves his daily snuggles. He would do best in a home with no small children. Someone with experience with pups that can become VERYterritorial over their humans. a first session by our trainer will be provided with adoption to insure a proper transition for Lambeau and his new family. If interested, please apply at www.naiasrescue.org   March 8, 2026, 11:39 pm

Story
Gucci is an adorable, sweet, intelligent, funny dog, who is very motivated to learn new things. He is a wonderful, devoted companion,  who will always be by your side. Gucci is very fond of women but warms up quickly to patient men.  He will do best in a quiet home with a single woman or a couple, however, he loves going out and socializing with neighbors of all ages.  Gucci does not do well with other dogs and is working on reducing reactivity during his walks. His biggest challenge is that he will guard an item which he finds important. Our trainer says that this behavior comes from fear and insecurity.  Therefore building trust can be used to manage the behavior. Gucci is hoping to find his forever person, where he can relax and be loved. Could it be with you?  We have brought him up to date on his medical needs, including vaccines and a neuter.   Applications for Gucci are available at www.chesed-rescue.org/adoptions.  We background and vet check all adopters and are looking for stable homes.November 2, 2026, 6:34 pm

Story
Zeus is a shih tzu/chihuahua mix, 12 pounds and about to turn 6 years old.  He is fixed and up to date on his vaccines.  He is very quiet, playful and loves kids.  He is mostly housebroken (a recent move may have him confused).  Zeus would benefit from some training as he can be food aggressive and protective of his home and the people in it. Zeus is in our Direct from Owner Program.  Chesed Rescue will accept all applications, background and vet check them and then pass qualified applicants on to his current humans.  Adoption will come directly from them.  There are no adoption fees (though donations to Chesed Rescue are always appreciated).   Applications for Zeus are available at www.chesed-rescue.orgNovember 2, 2026, 6:34 pm

Story
Tilly is just the cutest little girl! She was found running around the streets in Miami.  We were able to bring her to safety.  She is in a foster home and thriving.  Because of the matted mess of her hair, she did need to be groomed and shaved, but her hair will grow out quickly and she will be a showstopper before we know it!  Please fill out an application today as she will have lots of apps in quickly.  November 3, 2026, 11:26 pm
