Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Stretch! Stretch, Spot, and Little Man came to PRBJ from an overcrowded shelter after being rescued from a hoarding situation where the home had over 50 dogs. These dogs are all nervous and have no manners, not talking about sit, stay, paw I am talking about they are used to climbing on tables or counters if they can find a way up.  But they are SWEET and just need to each find a patient owner who can help them and maybe another dog in the house to show them what a dog is supposed to be like :) Important Information for New Puppy Parents  Welcoming a new puppy into your home is an exciting and rewarding experience—but it also comes with important responsibilities. To help your puppy grow into a happy, confident, and well-adjusted adult dog, dedication to obedience training, socialization, and consistent potty training is essential.  We strongly recommend that the entire family participates in puppy training classes. This not only helps build a strong bond with your new pup but also ensures that everyone is using the same commands and techniques, creating a clear and consistent environment for learning.  **Puppies thrive with structure, patience, and positive reinforcement—and so do their families! Let’s set them up for a lifetime of love and success  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 6, 2026, 2:22 pm

Story
Hi, I’m Ranger, a 5-year-old Rat Terrier weighing 9 pounds. With a name like Ranger, you might picture me exploring the wilderness, but my favorite adventure is discovering the comforts of a loving home. I’m a sweet, goofy little guy who has come a long way and has lots of love to give. I also have a special talent for making unusual noises somewhere between a normal dog and Jurassic Park. It’s all part of my charm! Favorite Things: Ranger enjoys investigating interesting scents, keeping tabs on household happenings, and satisfying his endless curiosity about the world around him. He especially enjoys spending time with other dogs and seems to appreciate having fourlegged friends nearby. A playful canine companion is often the quickest way to bring out his fun side. Training and Manners: Ranger has good manners around the house and does well when given regular opportunities to go outside and has learned how to use puppy pads. Leash walking remains a work in progress, and because he's quick on his feet, he should always remain safely leashed outdoors. He is a good passenger in the car and can sleep in the people bed or his own cozy dog bed. Health and Care: Ranger is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. He is a healthy boy and will simply need monthly flea and heartworm preventatives like any dog. His grooming needs are simple with regular bath and nail trims. Other Animals: Ranger gets along beautifully with dogs of all sizes and has gained a great deal from living with canine role models in his foster home. He has not been tested with cats, though his easygoing disposition suggests he may do well with thoughtful introductions. Children: Ranger has not had the opportunity to spend time with children. Because he appreciates a gentle introduction to new experiences, older, respectful children (10 +) who allow him to settle in at his own pace would be the best match. Ideal Home: Ranger is looking for a patient adopter who understands that relationships take time. He can be sensitive to louder voices, particularly from men, and responds best to a calm, gentle approach. A singlefamily home with a fenced yard will allow him to safely enjoy the outdoors while continuing to settle into family life. He also has a remarkable talent for conducting qualitycontrol inspections on anything left within reach, so keeping tempting objects picked up will help keep both Ranger and household belongings safe. Overall: Ranger is a resilient little dog with a sweet nature and an endearing quirky streak. He has come an incredible distance and is ready to continue thriving with a family that appreciates him for exactly who he is. For a dog named Ranger, it turns out the greatest destination isn't out on the trail at all, it's a loving forever home. If Ranger sounds like the perfect match, visit www.PoodleandPoochRescue.org to submit an adoption application. If it seems like a good fit, his foster family will reach out. His adoption donation is $350. ##2821511##

Story
Hi! I'm Caraxes! I'm a 10-year-old Rat Terrier that weighs 13 lbs. My name may sound a bit more combat-ready than I am, but don't let the name fool you—I'm much more interested in snacks, snuggles, and living my best cozy life! After all, every good dragon rider needs a loyal companion, right? Favorite Things: This little guy is a FOODIE! If you've got yummy snacks, Caraxes will be your new best friend! He's not much of a toy guy, but he's always happy to curl up with his favorite human for some quality snuggle time. His love language? Treats and companionship! Training & Manners: Caraxes is a quiet gentleman with wonderful manners who enjoys napping in his bed and sharing his space with other dogs. He's still gaining confidence with leash walking and working on his housetraining. His foster mom keeps him on a consistent routine, but he may still have accidents, so his adopter should be prepared to continue working with him patiently and consistently. Health and Care: Caraxes is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. He will need monthly heartworm and flea prevention like any other Florida pup. Other Animals: Other dogs are a-okay with Caraxes! In fact, having other dogs around help this shy guy feel more comfortable. He loves romping around with them. He hasn't been introduced to cats, so any feline introductions would need to be slow, careful, and supervised. Children: Caraxes has not interacted with any children but a home with respectful kiddos would be just fine!  Ideal Home: Caraxes would thrive in a home with a fenced in yard where he can run around and have frequent potty breaks. Overall: Caraxes is a sweet, quiet, affectionate little guy looking for a safe place to land. He may be shy at first, but underneath his cautious exterior is a gentle companion who loves snacks, cozy beds, and being near his people. He'll need someone willing to give him time, patience, and plenty of reassurance, but watching him blossom could be incredibly rewarding. He may not be the fearsome dragon his name suggests, but with the right person by his side, Caraxes is ready to discover just how wonderful life can be! If you think Caraxes may be the one, please visit www.PoodleandPoochRescue.org and submit an adoption application. If it looks like a good fit, his foster family will reach out with more information. Caraxes' adoption donation is $300. ##2821513##

Story
Branley may be a senior, but don’t tell him that—he’s too busy enjoying life his way. At 12 years young, this charming Rat Terrier has perfected the art of the good life. His favorite place? A cozy dog bed where he can curl up just right… preferably in a patch of warm sunshine. Give him a sunny spot, and you’ll see pure, contented bliss. Branley is also a wonderful walking companion. He loves getting out to explore, taking in the world at his own easygoing pace. Whether it’s a stroll around the neighborhood or a quiet moment outside, he’s happiest by your side. His hearing might not be what it once was, but a gentle, louder call is all it takes to get his attention—and when he looks your way, it’s with those sweet, knowing eyes that only a senior dog can have. And for his age? His bladder control is impressive, making him an easy addition to a calm, loving home. Branley is the kind of dog who doesn’t ask for much—just a soft place to rest, a bit of sunshine, and a person to share his days with. In return, he’ll give you quiet companionship, loyalty, and the kind of love that only comes with time. If you’re looking for a gentle soul to keep you company and remind you to slow down and savor the little things, Branley is ready to be your perfect match. PLEASE NOTE: All your current pets must be spayed/neutered, vaccinated and on heartworm prevention to adopt from Polka Dogz. We only adopt in Florida. All adoption fees go to help all the dogs in the rescue, some of which require extensive medical care. Thank you for caring for the greater good. Adoption fee is $250 and you can adopt me at www.polkadogz.org.  ##2715473##
