Story
Shadow's story. Information provided by his foster parents. Two years ago, Don and Evelyn went to a shelter to meet a new possible foster dog. He was a handsome, brindle boy but he had no use for them at all. Didn't want anything to do with them. However, they decided they were ready to take on this challenge and give then Drax (the destroyer), now Shadow, a chance at life. Shadow jumped into the car fine and laid down in the backseat. Ten minutes into the car ride, Don and Evelyn were quite surprised when Shadow got up, went over to Don and kissed his ear and then went over to Evelyn and kissed her ear as if to say "I think you might be okay". However, they quickly discovered that although very smart dog and well trained, Shadow was very wary of strangers. When you reached out to Shadow, he appeared to think he was about to be hit, and developed a defensive system leading them to think that he was likely trained with the fear and punishment method. A short time after taking Shadow home, they reached out to Satchel's to take ownership of Shadow while he remained in their care. Fast forward 2 years, and thanks to the help of Satchel's, Jeff Joyce and his team, and events they attended with neighbors and friends, along with lots of love and patience, Shadow has become a wonderful, fun loving boy. Shadow has learned that strangers are not his enemy and that he can trust them, have lots of fun with them, and get loving, treats and petting back. Although still a little standoffish at first, he will take an hour or so to check you out, and then will warm right up and make you his good friend. Shadow, now 4 years old, is ready to find his forever home with a loving family who will give him a little time to adjust to a new home and feel safe. For an appointment to meet Shadow, please submit the adoption application (no commitment) and an adoption counselor will contact you.

Story
Meet Brew! This beautiful boy is looking for a home where he can enjoy outdoor play, car rides, and time with special people in his life. If Brew could speak, here is what he would tell you about himself.... "I'm a bit on the shy side, but once I know you, I am your best friend for life. Loud noises and commotion scare me, so I'll need a calm quiet home. I know basic commands and am very treat motivated when learning new tasks. I have made new friends here at Satchels, two-legged and four-legged. I did live with cats in my prior home. I enjoy walks on my leash, although I might still pull if I spy a squirrel! My Woof Pack leader helps me adjust to new places and new routines. She says that she adores me! For an appointment to meet Brew, please submit an application (no commitment) found on our website at Satchelslastresort.org/adopt and an adoption counselor will get back to you!

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Sawyer is an energetic boy who recently spent time in a foster home and, we are told, had great house manners. He got along well with the dog in the home but wasn't happy about having a cat in his life. Sawyer enjoys his walks and playtime but is always ready to relax and cuddle on the couch. He loves meeting new people and playing with the children at our off-site adoption events. Sawyer would love an active family to match his energy level and keep him mentally stimulated. This is what a volunteer has to say about him: Sawyer aims to please. He’s exceptionally smart , great on walks, attentive and treat motivated. He will pose for photos and is super affectionate." Submit a no obligation adoption application found on our website, satchelslastresort.org/adopt/, and make an appointment to meet this handsome young boy.

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
All Tyson wants is love. He was surrendered to Satchels after his family could no longer care for him. Tyson is a gentle soul with a calm demeanor. He wants nothing more than to be with his people. He lived with young children in his prior home and adored them. He was initially a bit lost in the shelter environment. It took him a little longer to adapt and he searched for his family every time he went outside for the first couple of weeks. Now that he has finally settled in, he loves to go for walks with volunteers. He is a gentle and polite walker despite his large size. He can be a little timid of loud noises at times.

These pups are in Venice, Florida too!

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Carter is a sweet, lovable, and fun dog. He is very calm if you give him time to play and run around. He is now 6 years old, but he has a young soul and needs someone who will be able to give him time, love, and lots of cuddles. He does pull on a leash, so some training would be required to get rid of that behavior. Carter has a strong prey drive so he CANNOT be in a home with small animals or infants, but small dogs and kids who can crawl/walk are fine. I do not know if this behavior can be trained out of him. He tends to struggle with separation anxiety so chew toys are ideal, I can provide some. Ultimately, he is a very good and lovable dog, our schedules are just to busy to give him the life he deserves.
