Story
If dog shows had a Mr. Congeniality award Buster would be wearing a blue ribbon. A friend found Buster limping behind a restaurant on a hot day. His feet were blistered from the asphalt and his neck was raw from being chained up. His resilience is inspiring. He approaches every new person or dog with an assumption that he’s making new friends. He loves a good walk as much as he loves snuggling up for a lazy day. He very rarely barks and will quietly get your attention with sustained eye contact if he needs to go outside.He’s an amazing and gentle dog! I agreed to foster him despite having multiple health issues until my friend found him a home but never did. I had a potential home for him that fell through and now I’m panicking about finding him a new home before May 1st. I’m moving in with an elderly woman that’s terrified of dogs and has chronic allergies and asthma.

Story
Yamil has found himself in a shelter in Puerto Rico, still waiting for his chance at a better life, At Caribbean Paws, we’re doing everything we can to give him that fresh start and help him become part of a loving family. Like so many deserving dogs in PR, Yamil's best shot at finding a home is by flying to the mainland. Yamil is a 1-year-old 20–25 lb male who is up to date on vaccines and awaiting his neuter.  Yamil is submissive, and hoping to learn how this world works by following the lead of a dog who can teach him.. He enjoys playing in the yard, gets along well with other dogs, and would love a family to call his own. If you’re open to fostering or adopting, please reach out.
