Lucy, a Yorkie/Terrier mix

Meet Lucy! Lucy is a 7-8 year old female Yorkie/Terrier mix and she weighs about 11 pounds. She arrived in rescue when her family could no longer care for her. Lucy has a cataract in her right eye, but it doesn't affect her. She is settling into her foster home, but would love to find her forever home. Her foster mom says, "Lucy is an incredibly sweet and submissive lady. She would probably be ok with gentle, calm children over 10 years old. She loves being with her person and pretty much loves everyone. She is not a barker, but will howl and howl when she is left alone. NO shared walls for her, NO exceptions. She needs someone home more than gone because she has separation anxiety. She shouldn’t be left alone on a regular basis for more than a couple of hours and she would need to be in a crate when you are gone.

She walks on a leash with some coaxing, but we only take short walks. It seems like putting on a collar/harness and leash is new to her. She probably would love a little fenced in yard to do her business. She is also good using potty pads in the house. Lucy is a loving little girl who loves her naps, belly rubs and people. I was told she was good with other calm dogs, both big and small. She would be fine as an only dog or with another dog. Miss Lucy needs consistency and calm in her life, could that be you?" She is spayed, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, microchipped and has had her teeth cleaned. Lucy is fostered in the Orlando area and her adoption donation is $275.

Beans, a Schnauzer

Meet Beans! Beans is a 4 year old female Schnauzer and she weighs about 15 pounds. She arrived in rescue when her previous family could no longer care for her. She has settled into foster care nicely, but would love a forever family to call her own. Her foster mom says, "Beans is the sweetest lady! She loves to be wherever her humans are! She will follow you from room to room if you allow her. Beans seems to have a little separation anxiety and will bark/howl for a few minutes when you leave so a home with shared walls would not be ideal for her. She enjoys going outside and exploring the fenced in yard with us. She can and will jump over a 3ft fence/baby gate so, the taller the fence the better! Beans gets along with the other pups in the home.

So far she has not engaged them in play but certainly doesn’t mind having friends around. If she had a choice, she would prefer to sleep in the human bed if allowed (beware she can and will jump on the bed even if not invited). She will also sleep in a pet bed in her humans' room. She loves being petted and getting attention. If given the chance, Beans would try to escape out the front door so you must be quicker than her or have a baby gate in front of it for her safety (unless you enjoy running!). Beans is house trained on a schedule and walks great on a leash." She is spayed, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, microchipped and has had her teeth cleaned! Beans is fostered in the Orlando area and her adoption donation is $400.

Willie, a Chihuahua mix

Meet Willie! Willie is a 1 year old male Chihuahua mix and he weighs about 10 pounds. He arrived in rescue after winding up at animal control because the home he was living in had too many dogs. Willie was scared and nervous, so he came to rescue. He has settled into foster care nicely and is ready to find a forever home to call his own. His foster mom says, "Willie is a very handsome boy with the most beautiful eyes! He was super nervous and shy when he first came into our home. Now that he has settled in, he is super loving and sweet. He loves to shower you with kisses and loves a good belly rub while hanging out on your lap. When meeting new people, it takes him about 10 -15 mins to warm up. Willie can be very playful at times. He likes to put your hand in his mouth and nibble on your fingers (totally playing/not being mean.) For this reason, I will not put him with small children as it may scare them.

Willie came in with other dogs that he gets along great with but will need to do slow intros if you have another pup in the home.He would do best with pups his size or smaller as bigger ones make him nervous. Willie is not fully house trained yet but we are working on this. He is terrified of a leash and collar so a fenced in backyard is a must while he learns leash training. Update: He gets along with large dogs who can tolerate his “energy”. Recommend a home with a dog buddy to help him with his anxiety when left without his person. He walks very well on leash with his dog buddy. He is very treat motivated and needs redirection with happy nipping and a sturdy chew toy helps his chewing needs. He can now tolerate short stays in sturdy crate with decreased anxiety but would not do well for a full work day in crate. He attaches to his person and is slowly doing better letting other people pet him without immediately running away. Willie doesn't tolerate cates wouldn't do well in a home with younger children due to overstimulation/noise and chewing hazards with small toys. He will put any small found item in his mouth to chew including yard choking hazards so he needs to be watched when playing in a fenced yard." Willie is neutered, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, microchip and has had his teeth cleaned! He is fostered in the Orlando area and his adoption donation is $300.

Riley, a Bernadoodle/Schnoodle mix

Please know Riley is NOT HYPOALLERGENIC - she does shed some!!!

Meet Riley! Riley is a 5 1/2 month old female Bernadoodle/Schnoodle mix and she weighs about 10 pounds right now, but she is still growing, and could be anywhere from 25-60 pounds full grown. She arrived in rescue with her littermates when they were surrendered. Riley is all puppy and will need a family that is ready for Doodle exuberance and antics. She will need her forever family to continue to work with her on life skills like house training, leash training and socialization while using positive reinforcement.

Her foster mom says, "Riley is very sweet and a bit of a drama queen. If the playing gets too rough, she will cry and then come running to her person for comfort. Riley will get in your lap and just melt while she looks up at you with her big brown eyes. She can be a bit barky when she is excited in an effort to get your attention but will calm down as soon as you pay attention to her. She gets along well with all the dogs in her foster home, big and small and is piddle pad trained if she can’t get outside." Riley is spayed, up to date on vaccines, on flea and heartworm prevention and microchipped. She is fostered in the Orlando area and her adoption donation is $500.

McHenry, a Beagle

Meet McHenry! McHenry is a 3 year old male Beagle and he weighs about 22 pounds. He arrived in rescue after being rescued by a nice family that could not keep him. He has settled into foster care nicely, but he would love a forever family to call his own. His foster dad says, "McHenry is an adorable guy! He’s so sweet and loves being with people and loves everyone he meets. McHenry loves going for walks and gets along with dogs of all sizes.

He likes playing with toys and especially if you play with him. He’s a pretty quiet boy but when excited he lets out that Beagle howl. McHenry is crate trained and currently sleeps in his crate at night. He enjoys exploring the fenced in yard with us but also enjoys his walks. He does pretty well on the leash but still requires some additional correction when walking. He seems pretty good on his house skills, but I generally ask if he wants to go out or for a walk. You just need to learn his signals. Mac has lots of love to give to his new family be it a home with older children or other dogs. When you meet this boy you can’t help but fall in love!" McHenry is neutered, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, microchipped and has had his teeth cleaned. He is fostered in the Orlando area and his adoption donation is $350.

Copper, a Goldendoodle

Please note Copper is not hypoallergenic - he does shed!

Meet Copper! Copper is an 8 month old male Goldendoodle and he weighs about 40 pounds. He is still a puppy and growing, which means he could grow to be larger than 50 pounds. We just want his new family to be prepared for however big he may get! Copper arrived in rescue when his litter was surrendered. He's been doing great in foster care, but is ready for a forever family to call his own. That family must be ready for all things puppy including leash training, house training, continued socialization and learning what is OK to chew and what isn't. His foster mom says, "Copper is a very energetic and playful pup. When he arrived in foster care, he was extremely shy of humans and would back away and run if approached. However, he now comes for pets and affection. He's become more confident, however, it will probably take several days for him to bond with new folks. His adopters will need to respect this behavior and go slowly.

He barks at strangers and new sounds, so no shared walls. He goes into a crate willingly, enticed with a milk bone treat. He is housetrained on a schedule and will bark during the night to let me know he needs to go out. He is working on his leash training and his new family will need to continue this training with positive reinforcement, a harness and a secure fenced yard. He loves to run in the yard and play with my other dogs of similar size and enthusiasm. He ignores my small dogs and he's ok with dog savvy cats. Cooper is teething and likes his puppy toys. Beware he has no discretion about the definition of an appropriate chewable and will munch on anything available. He needs an active, very patient and experienced family, a playful canine friend of comparable size, and a very secure fenced yard (he is a digger). No small children or frail adults, as his energy and puppy incoordination may result in a tumble. Share your home with Copper and help him express all the love and fun he has to offer!" Copper is neutered, up to date on vaccines, on flea and heartworm prevention and microchipped. He is fostered in the Flagler Beach area, and his adoption donation is $400.

Tammy, a Chihuahua/Beagle mix

Meet Tammy! Tammy is a 5 year old female Chihuahua/Beagle mix and she weighs about 22 pounds. She arrived in rescue when her previous home could no longer care for her. Tammy has been confused about her situation, but is trying to learn to trust again and find her forever family. Her foster dad says, "Tammy is a very sweet, but very shy girl. She is shy and keeps her distance but still comes to be near you then backs away. She’s working on trust but is so sweet and loving once she surrenders to you.

She has been around dogs of all sizes and is okay with that. Tammy absolutely needs another dog in her forever home as she has anxiety when she is "all alone". She has not been around cats or children. She is crate trained, but you have to put her in but is starting to go in on her own. She currently is sleeping the night in her crate and rides in her crate in the car. Tammy is working on house training and leash skills. She will require patience to gain your trust and that will take time. She’s so cute and sweet she’s hard to resist! You can’t help but love her." Tammy is spayed, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, microchipped and has had her teeth cleaned. She is fostered in the Orlando area and her adoption donation is $275.
