Story
Psssst… hey you. Yes, YOU. I’ve got something important to tell you. My name is Kirby, and I’m an adorable 7-year-old, 9-pound Morkie boy who looks like a stuffed animal come to life! I just arrived at Florida Coastal Cocker Rescue and I’m looking for my forever home. I'm kind of a lap dog. Okay, TOTALLY a lap dog. I love being close to my person, giving kisses, and just… hanging out together. I'm chill, affectionate, and I make an excellent couch companion. My foster mom says I mind her really well, which — yes, I do, because I'm a good boy and I know it. Now, full transparency: I'm still working on my housetraining and leash manners. I know, I know. But with a little patience and consistency, I'm going to be an absolute star. I also have a teensy talent for escaping, so a secure yard would be ideal, and my new family should be vigilant about open doors and consider an AirTag for extra peace of mind. Think of it as loving me safely! I get along well with other dogs, and I'd likely do great with dog-savvy kids 12 and up. If you're ready for a sweet, snuggly little shadow who will cover you in kisses, I'm your guy. Apply to adopt me at https://tinyurl.com/FCCRadoptionapp Adoption fee: $350

Story
Hi my name is Topsy! I'm estimated at 5 years old, weigh 9-10 lbs and appear to be a full Maltese (can not be guaranteed). I was surrendered with a few of my friends, Mopsy and Flopsy and we are looking for our forever homes. I am quiet and a little shy, but not aggressive at all. It appears we were used for breeding and we are so looking forward to having the life little dogs like us deserve with a real family and real love. I just really don’t know what is expected of me- the trainer here says I need to “learn to be a dog”. I will need help with potty and leash training- it wasn’t important before. I am dog friendly, so maybe having a fur sibling will help me learn?My $450 adoption fee includes vet exam, up to date vaccinations, spay, dental cleaning/work (desperately needed!), deworming, heartworm test (negative), and microchip. If you are interested in adopting me, please complete an application at www.gofar.dog under adopt as soon as possible as little ones like me find homes pretty 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

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.
