Story

I purchased Snoopy as a birthday gift for my daughter when she was in the 3rd grade from a pet store. She's now in college. He is a good dog and just needs a loving home. He's 10 years old. He loves to be held and rubbed. Since our daughter is gone away to college, we don't have the time for him and he and our other dog is left home alone for long periods of time. Snoopy loss one of his eyes a couple of years ago but it hasn't hinder him from doing anything. We do have another bigger dog that Snoopy gets along with but he doesn't really go around other dogs. He's not really friendly with other dogs. He's never been around cats. He's a real chill dog and would be a great companion dog for someone that has time for walks, cuddles, and hugs. Update: my daughter really wants to keep Snoopy. If you are willing to shelter him until the end of April, that would be ideal.

Story

Meet Ted & Bill! This tiny duo came in together and are inseparable. They are bonded brothers and need to stay together. They are just over a year old (13 months) and each only about 10lbs. Ted is the spark, the explorer, the one who wakes up already ready to do something. He’s full of curiosity and enthusiasm, always eager to move, play, investigate, and learn what’s happening five feet ahead. Ted is very sweet and affectionate in his own way, though he prefers playtime over snuggle time. Bill is the tender-hearted gentleman of the duo. He’s the kind of pup who believes couches were invented for cuddling and that bones exist to be thoughtfully gnawed into submission. Sweet, affectionate, and people-oriented, Bill enjoys being close to his humans and is happiest when he can curl up nearby after a good play session. They can be vocal at times, so a home with no shared walls is important. These boys are curious, require supervision, and consistent training while they learn how to be polite members of society. In return, they offer laughter, affection, and the kind of happiness that only puppies can provide. They’re exactly what puppies should be: joyful, chaotic, loving little beings ready to grow into amazing dogs with the right guidance. 🐶💙💚 They are microchipped, neutered, heartworm negative and vaccinated. They are located in Tampa and their adoption fee is $500.00 for the PAIR. Apply: www.love4pawsfl.org/adopt

Taz

Shih Tzu

Male, 4 yrs 1 mo

Tampa, FL

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

PLEASE READ THE ANIMAL’S PROFILE AND ALL NOTES BELOW BEFORE APPLYING! Taz is a 4-year-old, 8 lb little guy who was transferred to PRC from another shelter due to concerns with handling and stress. Despite everything he’s been through, when he’s given time, space, patience, and trust, Taz shows who he truly is — a sweet, playful, affectionate boy with a heart that wants to connect. When he feels safe, Taz: Wags his tail Does zoomies Rolls on his back Solicits gentle attention Play bows Settles calmly near people he trusts He gently paws for comfort, quietly whimpers for reassurance, and truly wants to bond. But life hasn’t always been kind to him. Taz struggles when he feels pressured, restrained, or overwhelmed. Leashing and certain kinds of touch are still hard for him, and when he gets scared, he may react defensively to protect himself. With calm, low-pressure handling, predictable routines, and understanding — he does beautifully. He even tolerated sedation for grooming with no reaction when handled correctly. Taz doesn’t need punishment. Taz doesn’t need someone to “fix” him. Taz needs someone to understand him. He needs an adopter who: Is experienced with behaviorally sensitive dogs Can provide a quiet, decompression-focused environment Can go slow and let him build trust at his pace Is willing to work with behavior guidance and support Taz needs us now more than ever. He deserves safety. He deserves kindness. He deserves a chance. If you believe in giving dogs like Taz the love and patience they’ve always deserved, please reach out. He is counting on us.
