Details
Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Bobbie was a stray and has had a very rough life. He had no trust in humans anymore. He has grown to trust his foster family, but would need an experience adopter who knows how to handle fearful dogs. He does not like to be picked up and we have to towel him so he will not try to bite. Bobbie is adorable and wants nothing more than to be with his person. He does not shed much and enjoys being outside, but in the shade or better yet in a hole. He is ok with most dogs, but tends to ignore them mostly. He does not like other dogs in his space.

Leo

Shih Tzu

Male, 11 yrs 8 mos
Dunnellon, FL
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Needs special attention, House-trained, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Can be sweet and loves to roll around on a lap, but also has biting tendency so proceed with caution with treats. Also, grooming may be a challenge, but must be done regularly so possibly will need calming meds from vet and must be done by a professional. This poor baby was found incredibly matted with corneal ulcers in both eyes, possibly from scratches he got from his matted hair. His eyes have healed, but scaring remains. ((He is currently not available, but he may become available in the near future. So we would like to have anyone who is interested in possibly adopting him fill out an application)) Leo's Foster family is going to be keeping him longer and are hoping that in time he's going to settle in better and his negative behavior will calm down. Please send prayers and positive thoughts for Leo and his foster family that things work out and it becomes his furever home. Please be advised that he is a bite risk. He needs an experienced handler that will be patient and cautious. This is what his foster had to say:  He is doing great with me, unfortunately he still growls at my husband. We just can’t have that not knowing what will happen.  He doesn’t like anything put over his head. You can put a harness or clothes on him as lone as he can step into them. He will wait for his food, usually sits waiting though might bark softly telling you to hurry up. He likes to go for walks, pulls some, which will get better. Likes to ride in car. Wants to be near you, either sitting with you, laying on the floor or in his bed. He sleeps in his bed at night. He is house trained. He peed in the house the first 2 days. Hasn’t since. We have a doggie door they all use. No children under 16 in the home or regularly visiting. Extreme caution should always be used with him due to bite tendency. Especially with new people.  ##1987976##

Story
Pebbles and Ella are bonded “sisters”  Pebbles is an 8-year-old Shih Tzu mix weighing 14 pounds and Ella is a 7-year-old Pug weighing approximately 18 pounds.  Pebbles recently had surgery to remove bladder stones and she has to be on urinary prescription food which she actually loves!  They are both super friendly and affectionate.  They are totally bonded, when Pebbles was recovering from surgery her sister Ella was so despondent.  As soon as they were together again, their tails were wagging in a happy reunion.  They do get along with the other dogs but have not been cat or child-tested. The adoption donation for the pair is $550 which includes their spay, vaccinations and microchip. They are heartworm-negative and on monthly prevention.  They are an adorable, lovable pair looking for their forever home together. https://www.aforeverhomeanimalrescue.org/Project/pebbles_ella/ We are only able to adopt within the state of Florida. We have a page on our website that explains our adoption process, and contains a link to our adoption application. Here is the link: http://www.aforeverhomeanimalrescue.org/adoption-information-2/
