Story
🌟 ACCEPTING PRE-APPLICATIONS ✨ These tiny survivors have already beaten incredible odds… and now they’re ready for the happiest chapter of their lives. Found huddled together beneath a shed in the freezing cold of rural Alabama, these sweet little rat terrier–type puppies endured more in their first weeks than any baby ever should. Tragically, their siblings didn’t survive the cold; but these brave little souls held on. And today, they are warm, safe, thriving, and full of playful puppy joy. At around 9 weeks old, they are everything you’d hope for in a puppy! Curious, bouncy, snuggly, and impossibly adorable. They love to play, explore, and then curl up close for the sweetest naps. Because of their unknown past, there are a few mysteries that come with loving them: • We didn’t see mom or dad, so breed and adult size are only our best guess. • We don’t know their full health or genetic history. • We can’t predict shedding or exactly how big they’ll grow. • And like all young puppies, they are not housetrained yet and will need patience, structure, and lots of love as they learn. What we do know is this: They are incredibly loving. They are resilient. And they are so, so ready to belong to someone who will love them forever. *They’ll be ready to go home this Friday following their vetting.* 📍Clearwater, FL 💻 https://www.southernstatesbullyrescue.org/blank

I wasn't always a shelter dog. I once lived in a world of magic, where I was a brave guardian of a hidden treasure. My shyness was my strength, keeping me invisible to those unworthy. But one day, a playful, mischievous fairy tricked me into a portal that led me here.  I had an eye injury along the way but made a complete recovery.   I've adapted, using my independence to cope. I'm loyal, and, once comfortable, ready to protect and love whoever adopts me.   I pick and choose my doggy friends but love to play with cats.   I may not guard treasures anymore, but I promise to guard your heart with all my might. NOTE:  Local applications are given first priority and some out of town areas will not be able to be processed.  If you are interested in adopting please complete our Adoption Application by copying and pasting the following link into your web browser: http://www.caninecastaways.org/adoption-application For a full list of dogs we currently have for adoption use this link:  https://www.caninecastaways.org/adoptable-dogs MEDICAL INFO: The following has been or will be done for this dog... - Basic Exam by Veterinarian - Spayed or Neutered - Heartworm Tested - Placed on heartworm preventive - Basic Bloodwork - Urinalysis - Microchipped - Intestinal Parasite Exam and medication - Vaccinations - Placed on Flea preventive ADOPTION DONATION: $300 This adoption donation helps to cover the vet expenses for this dog including heartworm preventive which is dispensed at the initial vet visit and then goes with the dog at adoption.
