Abigail

American Staffordshire Terrier Shar Pei

Female, 3 yrs 4 mos
palm bay, FL
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Abigail is a sweet, shy girl who absolutely loves affection and to play. She was rescued from living on a heavy chain outdoors with no access to food, water or shelter. Abigail and 30 other dogs were removed from this property by law enforcement and their previous owner was charged with animal cruelty and dog fighting. Abby will need a patient adopter who understands that she hasn't ever been inside of a home before and will need to learn basic living skills like potty training. She will most likely need to eat soft foods for the remainder of her life because she's missing half of her lower lip and part of her tongue and has a tough time keeping kibble in her mouth. Because of the emotional and physical trauma that she's endured we would prefer she be the only pet in the home.

Story
Hi there! I’m Daisy, a sweet, shy girl who came to the shelter as a stray on August 11th, 2024. I’ve had all my vaccinations, been microchipped, and spayed. I might be a bit nervous at first, but once I get to know you, I get so excited! I’m still learning to keep all four paws on the ground—will you help me with that? I’d love to find a loving forever home. Could it be with you? We strongly recommend calling the shelter between 11am and 4pm to discuss more details about my background with our behavior team!

Story
Lola is a people dog and great around my niece and nephews and other children. She only barks at fireworks, thunder and large packs of dogs. She was a "teachers pet" at the shelter I adopted her from and her weight is perfect. She doesn't pull very hard and its easy to open her jaw if she gets somethhing she's not supposed to have. When she is bathed she uses uses her weight against you and plops down with minimal resistance. Best to have a bag of treats with you if you decide to clip her nails on your own, she tends to pull the paw away, does not bite. She responds to "gentle" "sit" "come" "down" "shake" If she snatched a treat yell "ow" and she immediately knows she went too fast for it. Likes her ears rubbed alot. Likes to be outside but not much of a walker. Very good manners around loud and undisciplined dogs.When I see her eating too much grass I make her chicken breast and white rice. 2 meals a day, wet digestion based food,watch for garbage outside,she is used to crates.

Story
****COMING SOON- He is still being vetted, he will be fixed before adoption**** Canine Clip: Isla's Journey watched my owners open the door and let me loose, they no longer wanted me. So they ended up surrendering me to Isla's Journey. I'm a very sweet boy, I am very goofy! I'm dog selective, so I need meet-n-greets with any possible fur siblings. I am potty trained!! Personality: Roscoe is a happy-go-lucky boy. He's determined to make you laugh!! He has lots of energy so he loves to play and go for walks. While he does well with children he gets nervous with younger kids so he needs to go to a home with older children (10yrs+). Dream Lifestyle: He would love a fenced in yard to get all my zoomies out! Roscoe would like someone active who can keep up with his puppy-like energy level. He would love daily walks and lots of playtime! Other Pets: Roscoe is dog selective so he would need to meet any other dogs in the home first. He can't be in a home with little dogs, only dogs his size or bigger if any. We aren't sure how he would do with cats.
