NAME:  Ana BREED:  terrier mix SEX:  female COLOR:  white/brown AGE:  6 yrs as of Jan 2025 WEIGHT:  11.8 lbs FOSTERED BY: LOCATED IN: NOTES FROM FOSTER FAMILY: Hello, I'm Ana. 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.

Colton came to us a puppy and now he is a lovable, cuddling kind of dog. He’s a medium size dog who loves to seat on laps. We are moving to Arizona and he cannot come to our new home due to pet size restrictions. We are devastated and hope we can find him a new home that will love him like we do

Story
Hello- my name is Lacey. My partner, Cagney, and I were found as strays trying to survive on our own in Miami - we were both so very scared! Thankfully, the angels at Guardians of Florida Animal Rescue came for us and we are now safe at the rescue.I am estimated at just a year old and last weighed in at 24 lbs. Best guess at my breed is a rat terrier/chi mix. I walk well on leash and even know a few of my basic cues! I typically get along with other dogs after a proper and safe introduction and I have never reacted to the rescue cats when I see them.My $450 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
