Story
Hi there, I'm Bella, but my friends call me Bella Bella Bella. I'm a girl who enjoys the simple pleasure in life - zoomies, nappies, and chicken nuggies. I'm a social butterfly when it comes to other dogs, and I am alwaaays ready to show off my zoomies to my pals. I go so fast that I tucker myself out almost instantly, and then I'm ready to plop on the couch and have you rub my belly. The volunteers take me on car rides, give me lots of toys, and let me crash on their couches from time to time and say I'm always the best girl and seem to be housebroken, know sit and down, and I'm just a delight to be with. I do know I would prefer a home without small animals like kitties, but I've been a friend to all dogs and humans! Man, I could go for some chicken nuggies right now. How about you get me out of here, and we hit McDonald's on the way home? Let's meet!

Story
Jane is a small Pit Bull mix. She is initially aloof, but warms up and is full of personality and loving. She is CRAZY about her 'giggle ball,' but will settle for a kong ball or something similar in a pinch. She carries it around non-stop and sleeps with it. She is a quiet, easy dog and would be a great companion for a quieter household looking for a slightly quirky dog. She is sure to make you smile and laugh multiple times a day! She is currently on a slow kill heart worm treatment protocol and is available as a foster or foster to adopt until she tests negative for heartworms. If you are interested in fostering Jane, please fill out a foster application on-line at www.puppyhillfarm.com.Visit us at the Gainesville Petsmart on Archer Rd Saturdays 11 am to 5 pm and Sundays Noon to 5 pm.

B-b-b-b-b-b-Benny and the petssss! I'm Benny, and I'm a delightful boy who LOVES getting pets. I also LOVE tennis balls. And other toys. And treats. And car rides. And you. And, well, everything. I go on Doggy Day Outs all the time, and I will gladly accept scratches and cuddles from everyone I meet along the way. I will spend hours chasing after tennis balls, but I will stop in my tracks when the treat bag comes out. I am a sucker for food and know sit, and thanks to yummy snackos I'm also working on down, paw, and my leash manners. I am dog friendly and like to play rough and rowdy! I can be a chill guy once I get my zoomies out and say hi to everyone, and I really think crashing on the couch with you after a day of adventure would be totally rad. Let's play ball - ask to meet me today! Visit us at the Gainesville Petsmart on Archer Rd Saturdays 11 am to 5 pm and Sundays Noon to 5 pm.

Story
This is Cassie! She is about 2 years old, 40 pounds, and spayed. Cassie has lived with other dogs and was kenneled with other dogs during her time at the Palm Beach County shelter. She is the world’s best snuggler, and she loves to go for walks, chew on bones, and play with toys. Cassie has lots of energy and loves when she has the chance to run at the park, but she is equally as happy next to you on the couch watching tv. She recently attended a month-long boarding training program where she learned basic commands and how to walk like a good girl on a leash. She also learned to not be afraid of certain things that scared her before, especially the Swiffer and the mop. Cassie is up to date on all vaccinations, veterinary appointments, and heartworm/flea medications. Cassie has never been around cats or children. She is a big love bug, and she will make a very wonderful addition to a family willing to keep up with her training!Visit us at the Gainesville Petsmart on Archer Rd Saturdays 11 am to 5 pm and Sundays Noon to 5 pm.

Story
Ray is a 2-3-year-old Pit Bull who came to us in rough shape. He was emaciated and heart worm positive. He has since put on plenty of weight and looks like a healthy, slightly beefy boy. He is on the slow kill heart worm method so he is available as a foster to adopt until he is heart worm negative. He loves people and can get a little exited so he may be too much for young kids, but may be just fine? He likes toys and is eager to please. He is going to make an excellent side-kick for some lucky human/s.Visit us at the Gainesville Petsmart on Archer Rd Saturdays 11 am to 5 pm and Sundays Noon to 5 pm.

Story
Meatball is one of the best girls out there. She is one of the most kid- and people-oriented dogs I've met in 20 years of pet rescue. Meatball loves attention almost as much as she loves treats. She is eager to cuddle and happily sits for hours with the 3 year old girl in her foster home. Meatball is crate trained and loads up great when it's time for bed, but she wouldn't complain if her new home gave her a little more freedom. She is crate trained and doing pretty well on her housebreaking with frequent trips outside, but she still needs a little work with signaling if she needs to go potty when she's inside. Meatball has the normal bulldog things - can get overheated so her new home should use caution during the hot Florida summers and she also has gets super itchy if a flea gets on her...or with certain seasonal allergies (her skin folds on her face, neck, armpits needs to be wiped regularly as they can get yeasty due to the humidity). Meatball is great with non-confrontational male dogs, but will pick fights with female dogs.
