As stated on the adoption process page, many of these dogs will receive multiple applications. Please review the adoption process page as to when the pups are removed from this page (it's when they are adopted, as meet and greets and applications do fall through)
Jackie, a Chinese Crested Powderpuff
Meet Jackie! Jackie is a 5-7 year old female Chinese Crested Powderpuff and she weighs about 10 pounds. She arrived in rescue from a home with too many pups that could not properly care for her. She has settled into foster care and her foster dad says she would like to introduce herself: Hi, my name is Jackie. I’m a friendly little girl, however, I am extremely shy and scared at first until I get comfortable with you. I am also scared of sudden movements and loud noises, so it is ideal for me to have a “safe space” where I can go and hide. I really do like like attention from my human, but I'm scared and it takes time. Once I’m settled and feel safe, I love to run outside with you and play with other fur friends. I love treats, but will not take them from your hand, so we will have to work on a "system" for that.
I would prefer a home with no young children and a human who can be home with me most of the day. I sleep well through the night and I’m doing well on potty training, but an occasional accident could happen. If you are looking for a sweet and loving new family member and are willing to work with me, then I’m the pup for you! Jackie 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 $450.
Bandit, a Pekingese
Meet Bandit! Bandit is a 1 year old male Pekingese and he weighs about 13 pounds. He arrived in rescue when his previous family could no longer care for him. He has settled into foster care and is ready to find his forever home. His foster mom says: He is a sweet, cuddly boy who loves being close to his people. Toys and belly rubs are two of his favorite things, and he’s already house trained (on a schedule) and comfortable walking on a leash. He also gets the zoomies and loves to sprint around when he’s feeling playful. At night he sleeps in a crate, though he would much rather curl up in bed with you if given the chance. He doesn’t bark much, but you may hear a quick alert if someone comes to the door.
He can be protective of his person and has some food guarding with other dogs, though this is improving with training and consistency. He generally does well with other dogs as long as they respect his space, but he should be the only dog in his forever home. He will give a warning growl if he feels uncomfortable around other pups, but he may escalate if another dog tries to take his food or challenges his bond with his human. His reaction to cats is still unknown, so slow introductions would be important. Bandit is neutered, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative and microchipped. He is fostered in the Orlando area and his adoption donation is $500.
Bonnie, a Rat Terrier/Chihuahua mix
Meet Bonnie! Bonnie is a 4 month old Rat Terrier/Chihuahua/something really freaking cute mix and she currently weighs about 8 pounds. She is still growing and we are unable to predict her adult weight as we do not really know anything about her parents. If you need a pup to stay under a certain size, please know Bonnie is not the girl for you. Bonnie arrived in rescue after arriving at animal services and being really small with an upper respiratory infection. She has recovered well and thrived in her foster home and is ready to find a family to call her own!
Her new family needs to be prepared for all things puppy, including house training, leash training,
learning what to chew and not chew and continued socialization. Her foster mom says: Bonnie is an energetic and playful pup. She enjoys running outside and playing with the other pups in her foster home. She does not like to share her food with other dogs so she would do best as the only dog in the home. Bonnie would love an active home where she could get all the attention and her people are up for all things puppy. Bonnie is spayed, up to date on vaccines, on flea and heat worm prevention and microchipped. She is fostered in the Orlando area and her adoption donation is $450.
Sabrina, a Shih Tzu/Maltese mix
Please note: Sabrina is not hypoallergenic and does shed. Due to Sabrina's participation in a TV program, her forever home needs to be located in the Orlando area.
Meet Sabrina! Sabrina is a 7 month old Shih Tzu/Maltese mix puppy. She currently weighs about 12 pounds, but is still quite the growing pup. While we expect her full grown weight to be under 25 pounds, we can not accurately predict that. If you need a pup guaranteed to be a specific size, she is not the pup for you. Sabrina and her littermate arrived in rescue after they were surrendered as their previous family could not properly care for them. They have since been raised in loving foster homes (they are not in the same foster home) and are thriving. Sabrina is still very much a puppy and learning all of her life skills. She will need a family that is up for that long term,
That includes house training, leash training, learning what to chew and not chew, continued socialization and positive reinforcement. Her foster mom says: Sabrina is a super sweet, super special girl. She is full of charm and charisma and has no problem trying to work her magic on you to get out of trouble. You need to be immune though and help her work on her puppy manners. She is doing well on her housetraining, but will need a family to keep her on a consistent schedule and understand that accidents happen. Sabrina gets along well with her furfriends and would love a fur friend of similar energy, but is not suited for a home with senior pups - she can be a little annoying, lol. She gets along great with older, dog savvy kiddos and we are working on her learning fingers are not chew toys. She is very smart and food motivated, so she learns quickly. Sabrina is going to make a special family very lucky! Sabrina 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.

She has recovered well and thrived in her foster home and is ready to find a family to call her own! Her new family needs to be prepared for all things puppy, including house training, leash training, learning what to chew and not chew and continued socialization.
Her foster mom says: Sapphire is a spitfire! She is super fast and loves to run in the back yard with the big dogs. They can never catch her and she is fearless. She is very light on her feet and can jump high enough to get on the couch or the bed without assistance. She loves people and welcomes any attention she can get. Sapphire loves other dogs and would love a fur sibling to play with in her forever home. She is super sweet, smart and loving but still learning about all things puppies should and should not do.

Orville, a Mixed Breed
Meet Orville! Orville is a 6 month old male puppy and he weighs about 35 pounds.

Orville and his littermates arrived in rescue after being part of an accidental litter.
Dad is a Beagle/Cavalier mix (a Beagleier) and mom is a Bassett Hound/Blue Heeler mix.The pups have been raised in a loving foster home and are thriving. A forever family will need to be up for all things puppy - including housetraining, leash training, learning what is ok to chew and not chew, as well as continued socialization. This litter is very sweet, but very energetic. They would do well with furfriends of similar energy levels, senior pups will be highly annoyed. They would also do well with dog savvy kiddos. An active home is a must - they have lots of energy!! Orville is neutered, up to date on vaccines, on flea and heartworm prevention and microchipped. Orville is fostered in the Orlando area and his adoption donation is $450.

I’m a super sweet and very friendly little girl, but I tend to be skittish at first until I get to know you. I get along well with people, older children and other dogs once I’m comfortable with them. Although I’m not currently a huge fan of toys, I will play with them briefly from time to time.
I am working on my crate training and sleep well through the night, but I prefer to be free to roam. Someone who can be home with me most of the day would be my ideal companion.

Roberto, a Corgi
Meet Roberto! Roberto is a 7 year old male Corgi and she weighs about 35 pounds. He arrived in rescue after coming from a home with too many pups that could no longer care for him. He has settled into foster care nicely and his foster mom says: Meet Roberto — the kind of dog families dream of Roberto is truly the definition of a perfect family dog. He’s gentle, quiet, loving and has the kind of presence that makes a house feel like home the moment he walks in. He absolutely adores people and is wonderful with other dogs. Roberto would do great in a home with older kids, where he can be part of everyday life — hanging out, joining in for outdoor time, or simply laying nearby keeping watch. He isn’t wild or demanding; he’s steady, kind, and incredibly easy to love. One of Roberto’s favorite things is being outside with us. Fresh air, sunshine, his human and a peaceful yard make him so happy.
He walks well on leash and collar, enjoys his meals (never skips one) and is fully crate and house trained.In fact, when Roberto is ready for a nap, he’ll often put himself into his crate — a true gentleman through and through. Roberto is a quiet dog with a big heart. He doesn’t need constant attention or entertainment. What he wants most is a family to belong to — a place where he’s included, loved, and allowed to just be himself. If you’re looking for a dog who will blend seamlessly into your home, love everyone he meets, and bring calm, comfort, and loyalty into your life, Roberto may be the one you’ve been waiting for. He’s not just looking for a house.
He’s looking for his family.
Roberto 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 $475.
Orson, a Mixed Breed
Meet Orson! Orson is a 6 month old male puppy and he weighs about 35 pounds. We expect him to stay under 55 pounds when full grown, but due to his unique mix, we are unable to accurately predict his actual adult weight range. If you need a pup to stay a specific size, he is not the pup for you. Orson and his littermates arrived in rescue after being part of an accidental litter. Dad is a Beagle/Cavalier mix (a Beagleier) and mom is a Bassett Hound/Blue Heeler mix. The pups have been raised in a loving foster home and are thriving. A forever family will need to be up for all things puppy - including housetraining, leash training, learning what is ok to chew and not chew, as well as continued socialization.
This litter is very sweet, but very energetic. They would do well with furfriends of similar energy levels, senior pups will be highly annoyed.They would also do well with dog savvy kiddos. An active home is a must - they have lots of energy!! His foster mom says: Orson is a friendly, people loving pup who thinks bedtime is best spent snuggled up in bed with his humans. He’s affectionate, gentle and always happy to soak up attention. He loves a good game of tug-o-war and gets along well with other dogs. Orson isn’t much of a barker, but he is a typical hound when it comes to curiosity—shoes and forbidden treasures are especially tempting, so he’ll need some guidance as he continues learning what’s his and what’s not. If you’re looking for a sweet, social pup who enjoys playtime followed by cuddle time, Orson could be the perfect fit. Orson is neutered, up to date on vaccines, on flea and heartworm prevention and microchipped. He is fostered in the Orlando area and his adoption donation is $450.
Elizabeth, a Corgi
Meet Elizabeth! Elizabeth is a 5 year old female Corgi and she weighs about 26 pounds. She arrived in rescue after coming from a home with too many pups that could no longer care for her. She has settled into foster care nicely and her foster mom says: Meet Elizabeth — Queen Elizabeth Elizabeth isn’t loud about love. She doesn’t demand it. She just quietly offers it… and somehow gives you exactly what you didn’t know you needed. When you come home, she greets you with a soft, happy “heyyyyy”—just the calm relief of a soul who’s been waiting for her people. Once she knows you’re home, she settles in, content simply knowing she belongs. Elizabeth is the definition of easy. A little attention fills her cup. She’s happiest chewing on a bone, gently squeaking a toy, stretched out on cool tile or laying in the sun like she finally has nowhere else to be. She doesn’t need constant entertainment—she just wants to exist near someone who loves her. The Queen could lose a little weight and she’s hoping for a family who will walk beside her through that journey with patience and kindness.
Not an overly active home—just one that believes in her and cheers her on, one step at a time. She needs to be an only dog, so she can be the queen of her perch. Elizabeth is crate trained, house trained (with her outdoor time and on a schedule), walks well on leash and absolutely loves the backyard. If you have a screened-in patio where she can lay, watch the world and nap the day away… you might actually be her dream come true. Elizabeth doesn’t need much. She just needs someone. Someone to come home to. Someone to lay in the sun with. Someone to love her for exactly who she is. And in return, she’ll give you quiet loyalty, peaceful companionship, and a heart that feels like home. All hail Queen Elizabeth.
Elizabeth 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 $500.

She has settled into foster care nicely and her foster dad said she would like to introduce herself! "Herrrrrro, my name is Avery. I’m a super sweet and friendly little girl. I have a laid back and “chill” personality.
I’m not a big fan of toys, but I love attention from my human and playing with other dogs! As a herding breed, I love to run and romp. Although I like attention and being close to my humans, I am not a lap dog...I prefer to sit next to you while you rub/pet me, very very typical for a corgi. I am crate and house trained (on a schedule) and get along great with older kids and other dogs. Oh, and fun fact about me….I have heterochromia. So if you’re looking for a gentle, loyal and loving new family member, you should definitely pick me!" Avery 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 $475.
