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.

Story
Apply to Adopt Me! Meet Sherman. An approx. 5-year-old neutered male JRT mix. Sherman is what we call a low rider due to his short legs, which doesn't stop him from jumping onto the couch to snuggle with his foster mom. Sherman has come a long way in the short time he's been with his foster family, but he is still cautious of new people and wary of men. Sherman was most likely not well socialized and needs someone who will show him patience and love as he continues to come out of his shell. He loves women and would most likely do best in a female only home and because he needs a quieter, slower paced environment, a home with children would not be an ideal situation. Sherman does love other dogs and has fun playing with his foster brother and sisters. He runs around the house wagging his tail, trying to get them to play. He really has a silly side that will come out even more as he learns to trust. He has a very JRT personality and at times tries to be bossy with the other dogs so dogs with a more submissive personality would be a better fit. Someone who has JRT breed experience is important as well. Sherman is crate trained and housebroken. He is fearful of walking on a leash, but we are working on making him more comfortable with it. He rides quietly in the car too. Overall, he is a very sweet, goofy little boy that just needs to find someone who will help him become more confident. If you live in the Central Florida area and think this goofy little low rider would be a good fit in your home, please fill out an application and tell us more about yourself. December 3, 2025, 8:56 pm
