Story
EXERCISE NEEDS: Daily Workout EASE OF TRAINING: Willing FRIENDLINESS WITH PEOPLE: Outgoing PLAYFULNESS: Amateur FRIENDLINESS WITH DOGS: Tolerant LEASH MANNERS: Pulls Often Meet Sarabel: A Tiny Dynamo with a Big Heart! Age: 2 years Breed: Pit Bull Mix Size: Small but Mighty Sarabel is a bundle of joy wrapped in fur, with a heart as big as her smile! Despite having IVDD (a condition where the discs between the vertebrae can degenerate or rupture, putting pressure on the spinal cord), which gives her a unique little walk, she never lets it slow her down. She’s still full of playful energy, always ready for an adventure (especially if treats are involved—she’s VERY food motivated!). When she’s not bouncing around with her signature wiggle, Sarabel is the ultimate cuddlebug. She loves snuggling up close, soaking in all the love and warmth she can get. Her big, beaming smile is contagious, and her happy spirit reminds everyone that life is all about enjoying the little things—like belly rubs and snack time! Sarabel may move a little differently, but in her eyes, she’s just like any other playful pup. And honestly? She wouldn’t have it any other way! New families will need to be aware that Sarbel should keep her current figure - she will need to maintain weight as excess body mass can put strain on her back. While she is food motivated and loves treats, selecting healthy, low-fat snacks like carrots, apples, and pumpkin puree would be best for her!

Story
Lil Girl, as I have called her, was found by a neighbor walking down the highway near my doggie daycare. It appeared that she had had a recent litter of pups and had been bred quite young. She is a sweet dog, great with other dogs, cats and kids. Loves everyone. Although she loves being indoors, I think she was an outdoor dog due to the fact that she continues to pee/poop in the house. She rides great in a car, walks great on a leash and does fantastic in public (parks, restaurants, stores etc.) She has a very laid back, calm demeanor. Not aggressive in any way. I think she would make a great therapy or emotional support animal.

We have 2 male Pitbull Mix for rehoming. One is American Pitbull Terrier mix (Gray, Tan & White) approx 4yrs old and the other is said to be American Staffordshire Terrier (Brindle & White) a little over 1 year old. Our lives have drastically changed in the past year and a half forcing us to need to rehome them. ☹️ Gray is fixed and Brindle is not fixed. They both are great with dogs, great with kids, good with cats but Brindle will try to play. Both are super loving. They are primarily inside dogs but love to be outside if you’re with them. They are crate and house trained. We just want a good home for them.

Story
Introducing our fun loving 2 year old Pitty, Flaco! This handsome, high-energy boy is full of life and would thrive in a home with a fenced yard where he can run, zoom, and play to his hearts content. Flaco adores people of all ages, though he can be a bit of a goofball he does not always realize how big he is, so supervision around small children is recommended. He is always up for playtime and loves all kinds of toys except rope toys those are a no go for him. On hot days, you will often find Flaco splashing around and cooling off in a kiddie pool. He is a creature of habit, too in his previous home, he enjoyed Friday bath days as part of his weekly routine. Flaco can make dog friends with proper introductions, but he does have a strong prey drive and prefers to chase cats, so a feline free home would be best. This smart boy knows several commands in Spanish including sit, stay, wait, no, yes, and out and he had great potty habits in his last home. If you are looking for a loyal, playful, and affectionate companion to join your adventures, Flaco is your guy! For more information on how to adopt, please call the shelter at 863 324 5227 to see if this pet is still available for adoption. Then come to the shelter for a meet and greet. We are open 10:30 to 6 Tuesday through Friday, Saturday from 10:30 to 4 closed 1 to 2 for lunch and the last Friday of every month.

These pups are in Lakeland, Florida too!

Story
EXERCISE NEEDS: Daily Workout EASE OF TRAINING: Eager FRIENDLINESS WITH PEOPLE: Loves Everyone PLAYFULNESS: Party Animal FRIENDLINESS WITH DOGS: Selective LEASH MANNERS: Pulls Sometimes Meet Worcestershire Sauce (Worcester, for short!), a small, spunky, and totally goofy bully mix who is ready to spice up your life! This energetic boy is pure fun, famous for his irresistible wiggle butt and high enthusiasm for everything. He is highly food and toy motivated, making training a blast, and he already knows his basic commands! Worcester is good on the leash, perfect for adventures. What you need to know about Worcester: High Energy: He will need an active owner who can provide plenty of physical and mental exercise. Dog Selective: He should meet any resident dogs before adoption to ensure compatibility. He may do best as the only dog in the home. Safety First: Worcester is a door/gate rusher, so secure entryways and consistent training will be essential to keep him safe. Training Potential: He is super smart and eager to learn (and eat!), making him an excellent candidate for continued training. He is also possibly house-trained! If you are looking for a compact, goofy, high-drive companion, come meet the one and only Worcestershire Sauce!

Bringing a puppy into your home is a lifelong commitment— this baby will depend on you for care, exercise, and companionship for years to come.
