Story
Introducing Millie! This sweet 3-year-old Rat Terrier comes as part of a duo: she's bonded with Jack, and the two must find their new home together. Millie is deeply affectionate with her person and thrives on that special one-on-one bond. She's a bit cautious with unfamiliar faces at first and needs time to build trust, so we're hoping to find her a home without small children where she can adjust comfortably. Millie already has the basics down pat: she's both leash trained and house trained, making her transition into a new home much easier. A small-breed-suitable fenced yard is also a must, giving her a safe space to romp and relax outdoors. Devoted, gentle, and bonded to her best friend Jack, Millie is hoping for a family patient enough to win her heart and give her the forever love she deserves. Millie's estimated birthdate is June 2023 and she weighs about 12 pounds. Her adoption fee is $315 and she is spayed, microchipped, and vaccinated. To learn more about Jack & Millie, complete an adoption survey at furkids.org and a team member will get in touch with you to schedule an in-person meeting. You must be 21+ to adopt.

Story
Meet Jack! This cute little 3-year-old Rat Terrier is looking for his forever home - and he's a package deal! Jack is bonded with Millie, so the two of them must be adopted together. Jack is so very loving, especially once he's bonded with his person.. he'll be by your side through it all. He does take some time to warm up to new people, so we're looking for a home without small children, where he can ease into trust at his own pace. Jack already has some great manners down: he's leash trained and house trained, making the transition into your home that much smoother. Loyal, loving, and ready to settle in with his best friend Millie by his side, Jack is hoping to find a family who's ready to earn his trust and love him for life. Jack's estimated birthdate is June 2023, he weighs 16 pounds, and his adoption fee is $315. Jack has been neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. To schedule a time to meet Jack and Millie, please complete an adoption survey at furkids.org and a team member will get in contact with you to chat more. You must be 21+ to adopt.

Story
MEET FLOWER — SHE’S READY TO BLOOM IN HER FOREVER HOME! Flower didn’t get the beginning every puppy deserves. This sweet little girl was abandoned, but thankfully, a kind woman stepped in, took her home, and gave her the love and care she needed. Now Flower is safe, happy, and ready for the best part of her story — finding a family of her very own. Flower is a 9-month-old terrier mix who weighs about 20 pounds right now. We expect her to be around 30 pounds full grown, making her a wonderful medium-sized companion. And those ears! Flower has the kind of adorable face — and personality — that is impossible to forget. She is a sweet, playful girl who loves other dogs and enjoys having a canine friend to run around and play with. She’s still young, so she has plenty of puppy energy, curiosity, and silliness. After playtime, she’s more than happy to soak up attention from her people. Flower has already learned that life can change for the better. She went from being abandoned and unwanted to being loved and cared for. Now there’s just one thing missing: Her forever person. She’s looking for someone who will give her the things she should have had from the beginning — love, patience, playtime, adventures, a soft place to sleep, and the security of knowing she’ll never be left behind again. At only nine months old, Flower has her whole life ahead of her. 20 pounds now — approximately 30 pounds full grown 9 months old Terrier mix Dog friendly Playful, sweet and affectionate Ready for a forever home Flower was abandoned once. Let’s make sure the next person who chooses her chooses her forever.

Story
    Hello, my name is Linky West! I'm around 9 years old and I weigh about 15-20 pounds. I think I'm a rat terrier mix. I'm spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, healthy, and ready to find my new home! I'm house trained and have learned to walk on a leash fairly well. I do not like crates for more than a short period of time, but that's okay because I can be left out without any worry of mischief making. When I first arrived at my foster home, I was very scared and unsure. Over time, I have settled in and come to love it here. I'm so much more happy and confident. I discovered that I love toys and cuddling. I also love treats! Now that I am more confident, I have found my voice and will let you know any time something even remotely interesting is going on in the house or the neighborhood, so I'd do best in a home that did not share walls with neighbors. I live with four other dogs right now. I prefer gentle, easy going dogs and do not care for bossy or dominant dogs. I also lived with cats in my last home. My favorite companion is my human though. Once I get to know you, I will adore you! Where you go, I go. I must insist that I sit on the couch with you and sleep in bed with you.    An odd quirk I have is that I get scared when someone tries to handle me (like a vet) or put something on my body (like a harness). If you slow down and speak sweetly, it helps me calm down a bit. My other request is a securely fenced yard. This is because I sometimes try to dart out the door and run wild, and also because I'm still working on my leash skills.  I'm really enjoying life in my foster home, but I am ready to find my new forever home!   An Adoption Application for this dog can be found and submitted online. http://www.angelsrescue.org/adopt/adoption-forms  Please be sure to like our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/angelsrescue.  Email inquiry@angelsrescue.org  Note: Some apartments and neighborhoods have breed restrictions. We verify rental policies and adhere to any regulations. Please ensure you understand those restrictions before choosing a dog.          September 1, 2026, 6:51 am

Story
Sleepy started life as a beloved puppy, but somewhere along the way, her story took a hard turn. She was recently found wandering the streets of Florida, thin and covered in fleas and ticks, clearly having been on her own for far too long. Despite everything she's been through, this girl has not lost a single ounce of sweetness. Sleepy is gentle, calm, and kind - the kind of dog who makes you forget she ever had a hard day in her life. She walks beautifully on leash and gets along well with other dogs, making her a wonderful fit for a variety of homes. At 29 pounds, she's the perfect medium-sized companion, just needing a little extra love and some good meals to get her back to her best self. If you've been looking for a sweet, easygoing girl to share your home with, Sleepy just might be the one. Sleepy is 6.5 yrs. old (est. birth date 12/04/2019) and her adoption fee is $315. If you want more information about Sleepy, please submit a survey at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/FKDS/Dog. At this time, meeting our dogs is by appointment only. After submitting a survey, an adoption counselor will contact you to give you more information about the dog you are interested in adopting and to arrange for you to meet the dog. Must be at least 21 years of age to adopt.
