Story
Pistol Annie is a sweet, energetic girl who just turned 1 in April 2026. She was brought into our home by my youngest daughter and her boyfriend, and she has been a joy to have around. She’s wonderful with kids, other dogs, and even cats. Full of life, playful, and incredibly loving, Pistol thrives on attention and companionship. She is leash trained, potty trained, and has a great personality. At a little over 60 lbs, she still believes she’s a lap dog and loves to cuddle. Her favorite places to sleep are the bed, the couch, and anywhere she can be close to you. She is also used to her extra large-long cage. Due to our busy schedule, we want to find her a home where she can receive the time, attention, and affection she truly deserves. She will make an amazing companion for a family who can give her the love she gives so freely.

Story
Theo is a great boy, just has a few issues that will require a stern adopter. He is friendly with dogs and people, but due to his nature, no small children. He has been through extensive training. He knows all obedience. www.playk9resuce.org The adoption fee for this pet covers the cost of care which may have been for several weeks or several months depending on the health and other needs. The fee also covers all vet bills during this time to ensure his/her health is improved or maintained and provides you with assurance that this dog has been well cared for while in our possession and evaluated to meet your home's needs. Included in this fee is also life- long training support provided by PLAY! K9 Academy located in Bradenton, FL as well as Life time microchip registration. When you adopt from a local shelter, you may not receive any medical history for this dog nor will you receive any behavioral history. We hope you understand that the minimal adoption fee we are asking is to continue our mission to rescue unwanted herding and working breeds from shelters/owners and get them adopted to their forever home.

Story
Cookie came to us a little while ago and has been rehabilitated by our awesome medical team! His hypothyroidism and food allergies are now under control with the right diet and medication. He would need to stay on both of those in his new home to remain well. 💝 If you're looking for a sweet loving pup to care for, he's a wonderful fit. Cookie loves to play! He's dog friendly and does well with all sizes at doggy daycare. He's leash trained and has manners (he knows standard commands). We feel he would be an amazing addition to someone's home and family! 🏡 Call Gateway Animal Hospital at 727-577-6500 or email us for an application and further information.

Story
I’m looking for a new home for my dog Jackie Brown. She is a very sweet dog with a big personality, who loves to play and gets along great with other dogs and cats. She’s very playful and energetic and having smaller child living with me she can be a bit much for him sadly. She would make a great dog for a family with older kids. I hate to have to give her up because I do love her very much and I’m hoping to find her a good home where she can be herself and be happy!
