Story
I’m a 2-year-old Korean Maltese with a joyful heart and a playful spirit. After spending my early life being used for breeding, I’m finally free to just be me — a sweet, happy boy who loves to play, cuddle, and make new doggy friends. 🐶💕 I absolutely adore other dogs and thrive on companionship. My dream home is with a young retired or work-from-home family who has the time and love to share with me every day. Because of my size and needs, I’m looking for a calm, adults-only home — no small children, please. I also ask that applicants reside in Collier or South Lee counties only, as that helps ensure the best long-term support for me. I have so much love to give and a lifetime of happiness ahead. If you’re ready to open your heart and home to a gentle little soul like me, I’ll be right here, tail wagging and waiting. 🤍🐾

Story
For the first 4 years of my life, I wasn’t really anyone’s “baby.” I was just a stud dog for a breeder, kept to make puppies and never truly loved for me. 💔 I didn’t know what it meant to be part of a family, to be cuddled on a couch, or to be told I was special. But things are different now—I was rescued, and for the very first time, I’m getting to learn what it feels like to be safe. 🐶💕 I’m a sweet, gentle 6-pound Maltese. I get along with dogs and even cats, and I’m looking for a forever home with someone experienced with little ones like me. I’m already neutered, vaccinated, and healthy—just waiting for my new chapter to begin. What I dream about most? A calm, loving home where I’m not left alone too much, where someone will show me every day that I’m more than just a “breeder dog.” 🥹 Could that someone be you? I’m ready to give you my heart—and I promise it’s a really big one for such a little guy. ❤️ Serious Adopters from Southern Lee County and Collier County only. We are a volunteer organization.

Story
Hello- my name is Naomi. I am part of a group of dog that Guardians of Florida Animal Rescue took in after a breeder decided we were no longer of use. I am estimated at 3-4 yrs old and weigh about 15lbs. My teeth were in horrible condition so, along with all my other medical needs, my rescue took care of that as well! I am missing one of my back paws, but it doesn’t slow me down or bother me at all! I don't really even know I am a little different than the other doggos!I am a little shy at first, but have found I love to be held and petted. I will need help with leash training and potty training. I am friendly with other dogs and have an overall calm personality.My $325 adoption fee includes vet check, up-to-date vaccinations, spay, heartworm test (negative), microchip and deworming. If you want to make me part of your family please go to www.gofar.dog and complete a free, non-binding adoption application. If you encounter any issues with our website, please email adoptions@gofar.dog.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
