Story
Ava Rayne was born on September 3, 2020. She has been an only animal for most of her life, as she does best in a home without other pets. While she has been around some animals, she is selective and would thrive as the only pet in the household. Ava is not suited for a home with young children. She is very protective of her home and her people, and she will need patience and time to adjust to a new environment. Once she is comfortable, she is a loyal and attentive companion. She knows many commands and is very intelligent. She is not 100% leash trained, but with her harness with a handle, you can correct issues as needed. Ava has strong protective instincts, making her an excellent guard and watchful presence. I am no longer able to keep Ava. I am seeking a responsible, experienced home where she can be an only pet, or a temporary foster who can care for her until a permanent home is found. Ava will come with her bed, toys, food bowls, and any remaining food she has at that time.

🎄❄️ Christmas Adoption Bio – Meet Ice 🧊 ❄️🎄 All Ice wants for Christmas is you. 💙 Ice is an approximately 12-week-old sweetheart with the gentlest, most loving soul. She’s the kind of puppy who believes cuddles are a full-time job and will happily curl up right beside you for all the snuggles she can get. Calm, affectionate, and people-oriented, Ice loves being close to her humans and soaking up every bit of love offered. She’s already crate trained and doing wonderfully with potty training, making her an easy and joyful addition to any home. In the little over a week she’s been with us, Ice has proven herself to be one of those rare “old soul” puppies — playful when it’s time to play, and perfectly content to settle in for cozy moments. Her personality is pure Christmas magic: happy, loving, gentle, and eager to be someone’s forever companion. Ice is the kind of pup who won’t just grow up in your home — she’ll grow into your heart. 🎁 Ice’s Christmas wish: a forever family to cuddle with, love endlessly, and call her own. Could that be you? Adoption fee covers all vaccines and neuter at 6 months.

Story
Cash’s story hasn’t been an easy one. After his original owner passed away, Cash spent far too much time confined to a crate that was too small for him, with very little time outside. The other dogs in the home were semi-aggressive toward him, leaving Cash overwhelmed, stressed, and misunderstood. He was labeled “aggressive,” but the truth was much simpler: he just needed space, kindness, and time to decompress. And once he finally got that… everything changed. At the boarding facility, Cash slowly relaxed and revealed who he truly is — a playful, goofy, incredibly gentle big boy with a heart as soft as his back-scratch-loving soul. He’s strong, yes, but so good with people. He takes treats from a 3-year-old with the softest little nibble, melts under affectionate hands, and loves forming bonds at his own pace. Cash does best with slow introductions and thrives with female dogs or calm canine companions. He’s not a fan of intact males and can become overstimulated around them, but with the right match, he’s a wonderful playmate. Most of all, he’s deeply food motivated, loves to learn, and adores being included. Cash is waiting for someone who sees the beauty in giving a dog a second chance — someone who understands that love, routine, and time will bring out his very best.

Story
Meet Lovable Loo! 💕 A goofy, chocolate-brown pup named Loo, hoping this holiday season brings him the greatest gift of all, a forever home. Loo’s journey began at Love’s Lookout near Jacksonville, where he was found alone as a tiny pup with a big will to survive. Despite that tough beginning, this brave boy has blossomed into a joyful, affectionate, slightly clumsy “teenager” who fills every space with warmth and laughter. He almost had a home lined up, but when that fell through, he never lost hope, and he’s still patiently waiting for the person who will see just how special he is. At about five months old and already 45 pounds of love, Loo is: ✨ Adventurous & curious ✨ Affectionate & snuggly ✨ Athletic and enthusiastic ✨ Friendly, goofy, and great in the car ✨ Food-motivated and smart, learns quickly! ✨ Playful, toy-loving, confident, and patient ✨ Independent but so happy to be near his people ✨ crate trained, house trained, and nearly mastered the leash. ✨ Fully vetted and ready for forever, Loo is the kind of dog who grows right along with you; loyal, eager, and full of heart. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will grow up right alongside you — full of heart, energy, and endless affection — Loo might just be your perfect match. 💖

Story
Lily roamed Jacksonville for a while, getting most of her meals from Chicken Express, which means she's been crossing a very busy road. She wandered up to a church with her litter of puppies in the spring, the kind ladies there took them all in. Pups have been adopted and now it's Lily's turn for the furever home she deserves. ❤️! She is heartworm + and is waiting in line (with Angel Paws Advocates) for treatment. Lily is quite protective of her home and people. She is cautious of new surroundings and new people/dogs, as expected because of her past, but will warm up quickly with proper introduction. She has been around several dog savvy children and does well! She LOVES attention, pets and being spoiled by her fosters.

Story
Callie was pulled from an East Texas shelter the day she was to be euthanized. Ater two minutes in her new foster home, it seems like she has always been there....she fit right in, a total team player, easy going, calm, patient. She demonstrates no annoying puppy behaviors, she is so grounded and just so happy that she is loved. She does not jump up on people so sh's a great candidate for families with younger children. She will play bark when romping around with her dog friends but everyone should be entitled to cut loose of energy, and all dogs usually have the same behavior. We are working on leash training, she does well in a harness, no collar, she doesn't pull but will stop walking when she's done. She is totally house broken and NEVER has destroyed or chewed up anything in the house. She is a true joy! and a perfect candidate for a first time dog owner!
