Story
Kip is a true velcro pup with a heart of gold. While indoor life is clearly a brand-new adventure for him, he loves cuddling on the couch! He is crate-trained and has not had any accidents inside. Currently fostered in Gainesville area, Kip is heartworm positive and the rescue is willing to pay for treatment up to 600 dollars. Our usual treatments range from 500 -700. He LOVES to meet new people and has a playful energy. He does a good job on leash and is not reactive to other dogs even if they are. When it comes to play, he matches other dogs energy. He is calm around the resident dog who is old and not interested in play, while he wants to play with the young, high energy resident dog. When he gets excited he may jump up on new people, but he’s easy to correct and knows to sit for his attention. While traditional fetch isn't really his thing, he loves a good rope toy! Watching for squirrels and lizards in the yard is his absolute favorite hobby, so this prey drive won't be the best fit for homes with cats. Because he is food-motivated, working on new commands with him is fun and rewarding. He easily learned commands like "sit", "here", "wait", and "go to your place" (for going to his crate). He is a sensitive soul who thrives on encouragement and soft, positive reinforcement. He learns quickly and just wants to make his humans happy! Kip will do wonderfully with a dog savvy owner who appreciates his playful side and is willing to be patient with slow introductions to resident dogs as he learns more about house-dog life. Apply to meet him today! 💙

Story
Hi! I am posting this listing for my older brother, who needs to re-home Sapphire. He has a newborn, along with two other young children. Because of this, we feel that he cannot give the proper love and attention that Sapphire deserves. Sapphire is turning six this month, and is a great dog. He acquired her from an online search. In a new home, we are looking for someone that can treat her as a companion, and spend time with her. Sapphire is energetic, loving, and smart. The one thing that she struggles with is jumping— she gets excited when guests come over. An experienced dog owner could probably resolve this issue if given the correct amount of attention. Please help us find Sapphire a new home!

Story
Please visit our website for more information on the adoption process and to complete an adoption application. https://www.pawliferescuegroup.org/adoption-resources Sadie is the sweetest girl! A 60-pound,Australian Shepherd and Lab Mix. She came to the rescue overweight and has put in the work to get healthy again! Sadie is house broken, does well at home alone, and loves walks! She is good with kids of all ages and does well with other dogs with the right introductions. Puppies or high energy dogs might be a challenge as she likes her own space but with proper introductions she gets along with anyone. Cats are unknown. At 7 years old, she is calm and easy going but still has some young energy in her and would do best with someone who can commit to walking her daily. She is very vocal and will tell you exactly when she needs something. She loves people and is content to just be with you and would make a great companion for any type of household! Located in Pinellas County, Florida.

These pups are in Bradenton, Florida too!

Story
🚨Border Collie/Herding Dog Experienced Foster or Foster to Adopt Needed. 🔹Pets Name: Penelope 🔹Age/DOB: 2 years old 🔹Gender: Female 🔹Spayed: Yes 🔹Weight: 50lbs 🔹Breed / Breeds: Border Collie Penelope is a very smart sweet border with typical herding tendencies. She has been on sheep and done very well. She is house broken leash trained. Does not like a crate but will go in , Needs work with crate training. Penny is a dog that needs someone who can set boundaries in a positive firm consistent manner. Typical of herders, she will try to control if she senses you are not in charge. She knows commands, she is motion activated as are most herders. We are working with that and she can be reactive with other dogs, thus the need for a dog savvy handler. She would do best in a home with one other dog or no other dogs for those less experienced. Fenced yard is a must, as is a knowledgeable border collie person . She would do well where she could work stock. She will be in the port charlotte area. 📩 Apply to foster or foster to adopt at the link below! ewenityfarmsbch.com

Story
This is Peanut!! Border/corgi mix but i see a lot of border!! He is a year old.. This boy is about a year old and a beautiful tri with a lot of white on him. He is neutered and up to date on all his vaccines/testing/wormer/flea and heartworm. He is heartworm negative. He is needs a place to shine, he is scared in the shelter but is well behaved and is really sweet and silly when his personality comes out. he is a bit timid of men but will allow touching once he sniffs you. Good with other dogs, Lets get this boy a place where he can run and be all he can be!! May be a sports prospect!!!! Peanut is settling in. He is very active and loves to play with other dogs but can be a bit overwhelming. He loved toys and will play tug or chase a ball (fetch in progress). He does jump up when excited and we are working on that. He walks nicely on a leash with a collar or harness. We are currently working on basic obedience and manners. Peanut needs an active home and would make a good running or hiking partner. He would also do well in dog sports. I will keep updating his progress. Fostered in the Gainesville area
