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

Story
Stormy is a 9 month-old Jack Russell Terrier Poodle mix with lots of energy and a loving heart. She does best in a home without children and can be shy or nervous with strangers and in new environments. In her previous home, Stormy did well with the dogs she lived with, though she may be shy around unfamiliar dogs. She has not had any interactions with cats yet. Stormy rides well in the car and loves playing with a ball, running around the yard, and staying active. She can be talkative and is very energetic, but she is also affectionate once she feels comfortable. Stormy is good at communicating her needs and will let you know when she needs to go potty, making her a smart and attentive companion. For more information on how to adopt, please call the shelter at 863 324 5227 to see if this pet is still available for adoption. Then come to the shelter for a meet and greet. We are open 10:30 to 6 Tuesday through Friday, Saturday from 10:30 to 4 closed 1 to 2 for lunch and the last Friday of every month.
