You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. MEET SYDNEY! 2 Years Old | 42 lbs | Australian Shepherd Sydney is a sweet, gentle, submissive girl who is becoming more comfortable and confident every day. She loves following her people around, cuddling, and being close, but she does not show separation anxiety. She is wonderful with other dogs and could happily live with a canine companion or be your one-and-only. She is also house trained and has recently been trusted to roam freely throughout the house with no issues. ❤️ Sydney is still learning about toys. She is not leash trained yet, but she is improving with her harness. We don’t know how she is with cats, but her gentle, submissive nature suggests she may be respectful. ✂️ Sydney still needs to be spayed, but her spay will be covered under her adoption fee. Sydney is learning that she is safe, and every day her sweet personality shines a little more. She is a quiet, affectionate companion who would love a family of her own. Sydney is being fostered in Tampa ❤️ Apply to adopt at 4luckydogs.org 4 Lucky Dogs Pet Rescue, Inc. Saving lives. Changing futures.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Bear! Bear is a handsome tri-color mini Aussie Doodle boy, born in April 2025, weighing about 25 pounds. With his beautiful coat, bright personality, and playful spirit, Bear is sure to turn heads wherever he goes — and with regular grooming, he’ll keep looking his absolute best. ✨ Bear came to us from the same loving home as Lilo (golden retriver). His previous owner, a nursing student who cared deeply for both dogs, made the difficult and selfless decision to find families who could provide them with more time, attention, and opportunities to thrive. Like many young dogs, Bear is full of fun, curiosity, and youthful energy. He loves to play and will do best with a family that can provide plenty of exercise, enrichment, and an outlet for his active mind and body. A yard to run in, walks, adventures, training, or interactive play would all be right up his alley. Bear is friendly with most dogs when introduced properly, and he would especially love a canine sibling in his new home to keep him company when his humans are at work or away from the home. His ideal doggy roommate would have an easygoing personality and a similar playful style so they can become great friends and enjoy their time together. ❤️ Cats are unknown at this time. Bear is still very much a young dog and is learning his manners. He has plenty of puppy energy and is working on remembering that not everyone wants to be greeted with all four paws off the ground! Continued training, consistency, and positive reinforcement will help him become the best version of himself. His prior owner shared that Bear could sometimes be a little shy around certain men, although we have not observed that behavior in our care yet. Overall, Bear has been a happy, friendly, affectionate young dog who loves being part of the action. Bear is neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on his vaccines, so he is ready to find his new family! Bear would thrive with an active family that appreciates the fun, energy, and companionship of a young dog and is ready to help guide him through this stage of life. In return, they’ll get a loyal, playful, loving companion with a big heart and an even bigger personality. Bear is officially ready to accept applications for his forever family! If you’re looking for a cheerful, handsome pup who is ready for adventures, playtime, cuddles, and a lifetime of memories, Bear may be your guy. If you're considering adopting two dogs, please check out Lilo, who he came into rescue with. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 6, 2026, 5:25 pm

Story
MEET AUTUMN! 🐾 • Age: 7 months DOB:11/30/25 • Size: 18 lbs MY TRAINED SKILLS: I am a proud graduate of a 6-week training course! I already know: Sit | Stay | Wait | Drop It | Place | Come | Go get it House-training Status: Autumn is doing fantastic with her routine! She is 100% crate-trained and handles her overnight/crate time beautifully without any accidents. She knows to go outside, though as a 7-month-old puppy, she can still have an occasional accident indoors if her humans miss her "I need to go" signals. She thrives on a consistent schedule!. She is highly food-motivated, eager to please, and absolute magic to train! Personality: Sweet, incredibly smart, loving, and full of life! Autumn has strong herding instincts and a lot of athletic energy. Because she tends to try and "herd" or nip when excited, she needs a home without small children. She would thrive best with an experienced owner, familiar with working or herding breeds, or an active family who can give her a job.

Story
I rescued Brandy from Precious Paws, so I am not sure of her exact age. She was an adult dog when she came to live with me. Brandy has been my companion for 6 years. She appears to be a purebred Austrailian Shepherd based on looks and behavior; however, Precious Paws could not verify whether she was purebred or not. Brandy was well trained when she came to live with me. She seems to understand English as she listens and follows directions. She is playful and loves to run. She will take off if she is not on a leash. Precious Paws said that she ate Kibbles n' Bits, so I feed her 3/4 cup of Kibbles 'n Bits mixed with 3/4 cup of BJ's brand (berkely jensen) Deboned Chicken and Brown Rice Recipe. Brandy is motivated by food, so she gets healthy treats. Brandy is crate trained and eats in her crate which stays open most of the time. At 71, I have medical conditions that have caused increased debilitation. Brandy needs an owner that can better care for her.

Bear is a wonderful dog and needs attention which we are not able to give him as we are traveling several months out of the year. He’s a beautiful, smart dog that would thrive best with an active owner and a big yard.
