Story
Hi, I’m Billy! I'm a 29-lb Rat Terrier and I'm 6 years old. I'm just an easy going, quiet guy who is just looking for someone with snacks who will love me forever.  Favorite Things: Billy is a bit of a foodie! He's playful, too, although this gentle soul is quite happy doing his own thing and doesn't need constant human attention. Training & Manners: Billy is a good boy! He is housetrained if let out regularly, he is a well behaved passenger on car rides, he walks well on a leash, and he generally has good basic manners. Health & Care: This little gastronome is currently on a weight loss journey and has been making great strides. He’ll need a family committed to continuing the journey with him which includes daily walks and closely monitoring his food intake. He is on daily medication to control his allergies and support his thyroid function. This costs about $85 per month.  Other than that, he is neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on vaccines. He also won't need much elaborate grooming, as a short-haired guy.  Other Animals: This gregarious guy gets along with other dogs of all sizes. He's even fine with cats! Children: Sweet Billy is good with children of all ages.  Ideal Home: Laidback and chill, Billy isn't picky and would be happy to live an apartment, condo, or single-family home: wherever there are people who love him.  Overall: Could Billy be your bestie? If so, visit www.PoodleandPoochRescue.org to fill out an adoption or foster application. If it seems like a good match, our team will reach out with more information. His adoption donation is $350. ##2629676##

Story
Bebe and Tabby are a bonded pair of 7-year-old female Chihuahua/Rat Terrier mixes. Bebe weighs approximately 15 pounds. She is a friendly, happy, affectionate girl who is always wagging her tail as soon as she sees you. Tabby also weighs 15 pounds. She is timid when she first meets new people, but quickly warms up. We have no idea why they named her Tabby? They both gets along well with the other dogs, but have not been cat or kid-tested. Their adoption donation is $500, which includes their spay, vaccinations, and microchip. They both are heartworm negative and on monthly prevention. They are currently in a foster home, please fill out an adoption application, and we will arrange meet and greet. https://www.aforeverhomeanimalrescue.org/adoption-application.html https://www.aforeverhomeanimalrescue.org/store/p154/Bebe_%26_Tabby.html We are only able to adopt within the state of Florida. We have a page on our website that explains our adoption process, and contains a link to our adoption application. Here is the link: https://www.aforeverhomeanimalrescue.org/adoption-information.html

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##

Story
Sammy has been our dog for over five years, and we love her very much. She is very smart and obedient. I often walk her without a leash, and she goes outside in the front yard off leash with me almost every day. Sammy is very energetic. Her love language is going on walks, and she especially loves long walks. She is a bit obsessed with squirrels and loves to chase them. She is okay with other dogs. She loves playing with our neighbor’s dog, but if another dog is aggressive, she will not back down. Sammy is extremely house trained. She has never destroyed anything and has never had any accidents in the house. Three years ago, we had our first child, and Sammy has never quite adjusted. She is anxious around young kids and would do best in a home without them. She has never caused any real harm, but she needs a place where she can feel completely safe.

These pups are in Orlando, Florida too!

Story
***Bonded – Lily and Rita are bonded and must be adopted together.*** Meet Lily and Rita! Hi, we're Lily and Rita. We're just two tiny girls trying to make our way in the big, wide world and find the family who will love us forever. Lily – I’m a 1-year-old Jack Russell blend who weighs just 8 lbs. I am a gentle, shy, snuggly, and smart girl who wants nothing more than to be loved by my humans and to stay close by the side of my best friend, Rita. Rita– I’m a 9-lb Pug-Chihuahua blend and I'm 1 year young.  I'm a cuddly, clever, and kissy girl who loves being near my person, learning new tricks, and hanging out with best friend Lily!  Favorite Things: Both girls love to be held by their humans, which is easy since they are so tiny. Lilly even loves to sleep in her dog bed on the human bed! 24/7, they love to snuggle and cuddle right up to their human!  Training & Manners: Both Lily and Rita are smart cookies who are eager to learn and who are housetrained if let out frequently and have even picked up a few tricks. Rita will even sit for treats now! They both walk well on a leash and are well-behaved little passengers on car rides.  Health & Care: This healthy pair are up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, microchipped, and spayed. They just need their monthly flea and heartworm preventatives, like any dog. These low-maintenance gals won't even require much elaborate grooming.  Other Animals: Lily and Rita both do well with other calm dogs of all shapes and sizes. They haven't been observed around cats yet, but her foster thinks she'd get along with them, too.  Children: These two sweethearts have not been observed around children yet.  Ideal Home: Equally at home downtown or down on the farm, these two would do well in an apartment, condo, or single-family home. Overall: Lily's and Rita's foster thinks they'd be a great blessing for any family with a heart big enough to take them both. If you’re looking for some cuddly cuties who make wonderful companions, visit www.PoodleandPoochRescue.org to fill out an adoption application. If it seems like it could be a good match, their foster family will reach out with more information. The adoption donation for the pair is $750. ##2726930##

Story
Looking for a loving home for Sophie. She is a 9-year-old Beagle/Jack Russell mix who is looking for a loving forever home. Unfortunately, due to my circumstances I am no longer able to give Sophie the quality of life and attention she deserves. Sophie deserves a home where she can be comfortable, happy, and get the time and attention she needs. Sophie is potty trained, very well behaved, affectionate, and loves being around people. She is a sweet, loyal girl who would make a wonderful companion for the right person or family. My biggest priority is finding her a safe and loving home. I do not want to take her to a shelter, so I am being very selective about where she goes. If you or someone you know is interested in giving Sophie a loving forever home, please send me a message. Serious inquiries only, please. ❤️🐶
