Violet, a Chihuahua mix

Meet Violet! Violet is a 10 week old female Chihuahua mix and she currently weighs about 3 pounds. Please know she is still growing and we do not know who daddy was (he didn't stick around, probably trying to dodge pup support, lol!) and mom weighs about 15 pounds. We anticipate her staying under 25 pounds, but we can't promise that. Violet arrived in rescue just ahead of Hurricane Milton after being born at animal services where mom was brought in as a stray. No one came for them and they needed a safe place to evacuate to as the hurricane approached, so the family settled into a loving foster home where they have been raised and showered with love.

She is ready to find a forever family to call her own. One that is up for all things puppy - including house training, leash training and learning what to chew and not chew. She'll also need continued socialization and manners, using positive reinforcement of course.Her foster mom says, "Violet can be a little shy at first. Always ready to play as long as it doesn’t involve heights at the moment. Full of puppy energy when play wrestling with litter mates." Violet 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 $375.

He has been thriving in foster care, but is ready to find a forever family to call his own. His foster mom says, "Reilly is a super happy and sweet pup! He loves to play with all the dogs, including the big ones. He is quite fearless! He will chase them all over the yard and bark at them when they are playing with someone other than him.

When Reilly gets excited, he bounces up and down and then dances on his back legs hoping you will pay attention to him. He loves attention and quickly warms up to new people he meets. He has a constantly wagging tail and tries to share his happiness with those around him. Reilly is always up for a snuggle when he can shower you with kisses." He is neutered, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative and microchipped. (please excuse the choppy haircuts, he had some matts that needed to be cut out and we will be updating with freshly groomed pictures shortly!)

Ozzie, a Chihuahua/Italian Greyhound mix

Meet Ozzie! Ozzie is a 1year old male Chihuahua/Italian Greyhoud/something really cute mix and he weighs about 16 pounds. He arrived in rescue after winding up at animal services as a stray and no one came to claim him. His hold time was up right as Hurricane Milton was approaching. He has been in a loving foster home ever since, but is ready to find a family to call his own. His foster mom says, "This young boy is so full of love and life! He has so much love to give. He enjoys doing everything with other dogs.,,playing, chasing, tug of war, everything. He looks for the other dogs to show him the ropes of the house. He would do best with another young dog in the home that can handle his energy, not an older pup. He is 100% house trained in the house and his kennel. Ozzie gets a bit of anxiety when going into the kennel at first, but he settles. He has gotten so much better since he's been with me. He eats very well and is always wanting to learn something for a snack. Ozzie is going to need a family that can give him quite a bit of exercise. He enjoys doing laps and laps and more laps around the yard and also loves to take walks around the neighborhood.

He is easy going and can hangout with you on the couch, but he is very energetic and loves to stay busy (lick mats and food puzzles are his best friend). Ozzie would love to sleep in the bed with you. (His crate is in our room) He gets along with smaller and larger dogs, I have both. I'm unsure of kids and cats since I don't have either, but he jumps on you when he's excited (we are working on that) so probably no small kids. Ozzie is such a loving boy and is ready to be home with you!" He is neutered, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, microchipped and has had his teeth cleaned. Ozzie is fostered in the Flagler Beach area and his adoption donation is $300.

He has been thriving in foster care, but is ready to find a forever family to call his own. His foster mom says, "Sydney is a wonderfully happy little guy! His tail is always wagging and he loves it when anyone pays attention to him. He will dance around on his back legs when he gets excited or if he is begging for something.

Sydney loves to crawl into your lap for some snuggles and scrubbies.Whenever you get down to his level, he will be right in front of your face to give you a sniff and a kiss. He makes the best facial expressions with his big brown eyes that are always amusing. Sydney gets along well with all the dogs in his foster home, big or small. He is a bit of a barker when he is playing with the other dogs or if the doorbell rings, but other than that he is quiet." Sydney is neutered, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative and microchipped. (Please excuse the choppy haircuts, he had some matts that needed to be cut out and we will be updating with freshly groomed pictures shortly!)

Rufus, a Chihuahua mix

Meet Rufus! Rufus is a 3 year old male Chihuahua mix and he weighs about 8 pounds. He arrived in rescue after arriving at animal services before Hurricane Milton and his time being up as the storm was approaching. He found a safe place to ride out the storm with rescue and has settled into foster care but would love a family to call his own. His foster mom says, "We would like to introduce you to Rufus. He is a Chihuahua mix and a pretty mellow dude. He has settled in so easily into our home. He gets along with other dogs, tolerates our cat (our cat is the instigator most times!) He has done well meeting different people who visit our home and loves the occasional pup guest. He has been around teen aged kids, so we are not sure about littles. He likes to sleep in his doggy bed but he would probably love to sleep in bed with his humans, (however our dog has already claimed that spot!)

We have found the only thing he DOES NOT like is to be picked up. He knows his name and will come when called, but he wants to do it on his time. He is a very smart dog and he knows it. Rufus is totally house trained and has not had a single accident since we've had him. He absolutely loves his walks and does great on a leash. He's not bothered by other passing dogs, if only to stop and check them out. If you are looking for a walking buddy, he is your guy!" Rufus 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 $300.

Loki, a Puggle mix

Meet Loki! Loki is a 3 year old male Puggle mix and he weighs about 20 pounds. He arrived in rescue when his previous family was no longer able to care for him. He has settled into foster care, but would love a family to call his own. His foster mom says, "Hi everybody, meet Loki. Like his namesake, he is a little mischievous and likes to chase squirrels and lizards. He does not have an “off button” and is always trying to play. Tug is one of his favorite games and he likes it when the humans play too. He is working on his house training and is improving with more of a set schedule. He will sometimes use a potty pad as a backup. Loki walks well on a leash but will need a harness for walks, or even a quick potty break. He has a tendency of trying to escape his collar. Once he warms up to you, Loki likes to be around people and will follow you around the house.

He wants to sleep on a human bed, but he doesn’t stop playing so if you want any sleep, you’ll have to put him up for the night. Loki doeesn't like to cuddle. He currently sleeps on a dog bed in the primary bathroom and is pretty good with sleeping through the night. Loki will play with other dogs but should really be the only dog in his forever home as he doesn’t like to share his food or treats and gets anxious when other pups are around at meal/snack time. I don’t think he would like to have a cat or any small animals. He also doesn’t realize his strength, so he shouldn’t have a family with younger than 13 year old kids around." Loki 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 $275.

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.

Kingsley, a Shih Tzu mix

Meet Kingsley! Kingsley is a 4 year old male Shih Tzu mix and he weighs about 14 pounds. He found himself surrendered to animal services right before Hurricane Milton and in need of a safe place to go, as he was very scared at the shelter. He arrived in rescue and has been doing great and is ready to find a forever family to call his own. His foster mom says, "He is a little shy with new people at first, but with time and a few treats, he comes around. Kingsley loves to leave the house for a walk, where he can sniff around and discover new smells. However, he will bark and bark at other dogs while walking. He also loves the car! He will sit strapped into his doggie car seat and watch the world go by the window! Kingsley would love a family that is home more than they are out. He has separation anxiety when left alone and doesn’t settle down until you return (so a home without shared walls is ideal).

He is a smart -too smart for his own good sometimes and sweet boy. He has been playing and playing with the other foster in the home-he has energy! He can jump mighty high for a little one. Human siblings (older kiddos) would be fine! Kingsley has plenty of energy to run and play in the yard, but he is just as happy curled up next to you on the couch. He does not like being in a crate; he would love to sleep in bed with you. He hasn't had an overnight accident and is crate/house trained as long as he is taken out on a schedule, and you are home. Kingsley would love to be the newest member of your family!" He is neutered, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, microchipped and has had his teeth cleaned. Kingsley is fostered in the Orlando area and his adoption donation is $325.

Coco, a Chihuahua

Meet Coco! Coco is a 10 year old male Chihuahua and he weighs about 9 pounds. He arrived in rescue when his previous family could no longer care for him. He has settled into foster care nicely but would love a forever family to call his very own. His foster mom says, "Meet my handsome foster boy Coco! He is a sweet guy, but shy at times. Once he is comfortable in his new home, he seeks out affection from you.

He will take a little time to adjust to his new surroundings. He loves to sleep in the bed with his humans and also enjoys hanging out on the couch with you. Coco loves his food/treats and is very treat motivated (although he could use to lose a pound or two which we are working on). Although he currently lives with other pups, he would do best as an only pup (he isn't fond of sharing food/treats). Coco is very excitable when there is a knock on the door and he goes into protection mode, but then quickly calms down. He is not 100% house trained but will use a potty pad if one is available to him. A quiet home without children would be best for him. Coco walks well on a leash and enjoys a short leisurely stroll." He is neutered, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, microchipped and has had his teeth cleaned. Coco is fostered in the Orlando area and his adoption donation is $275.

Monte, a Poodle/Doodle mix

Meet Monte! Monte is a 2-3 year old male Poodle/Doodle of some sort, but we really don't know exactly what and he weighs about 30 pounds. We can not say he is hypo-allergenic, so if you must have allergy friendly, he is not the pup for your home. Monte arrived in rescue after being found running loose and scared before the hurricane. No owner came forward for him after being held the legal amount of time through animal services. He is now ready to find his forever family. His foster mom says, "Monte is an incredibly smart boy! He knows sit, give paw/high five. He is learning wait and getting much better on his recall. This handsome boy is highly trainable and picks up commands quickly. Monte is an active boy and would make a great jogging companion. Although if you’re not into jogging he would also make an excellent walking partner. He does need a little more training on the leash as he pulls in excitement. A fenced in yard is preferred. He loves exploring the yard hunting for lizards. A home with senior humans or small children would not be a good fit for him.

Monte has been around small dogs and does well with them however he doesn’t realize his size so he needs a home with pups similar in size. He is a very loyal boy who wants to spend all his time with you so someone home for the better part of the day would suit him best. Monte MUST be crated when home alone. He will need a home with no shared walls - he has a big voice and knows how to use it. So far he only barks when you leave the house (does settle quickly in his crate) or if you are in another room and did not allow him to go with. He is house trained on a schedule. A typical Doodle, Monte will need to be groomed every 6-8 weeks and the cost of that is usually around $100-125, so his family will need to be prepared for that expense. If you are an active family looking for a very smart ,loyal pup who wants to spend all his time with you then this handsome boy is the perfect pup for you!" Monte 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.

Sadie, a Chihuahua mix

Meet Sadie! Sadie is a 9 month old female Chihuahua mix and she weighs about 11 pounds. She is still growing and could easily gain a few more pounds. Sadie arrived in rescue after she came from a home with too many dogs that was unable to care for them. She has settled into foster care nicely, but is ready to find a forever family to call her own. Her foster mom says she would like to introduce herself: Hi! I’m Sadie and I would like to introduce myself. I am such a young puppy with so much love to give but I am very reserved. I’m going to need my new family to give me quite of bit of time to adjust to them and my new surroundings. I prefer to be around a young social dog to help show me the ropes in the home, as it will take me a little while to get comfortable.

I do think I would be ok as an only dog as well, as long as my family has patience. My foster mom has a cat that I’m very interested in and I want to be her friend but I’m still nervous. My foster mom also bribed me the first week with cheese and I’ve realized it is just the best thing ever. She brought home these weird squeaky toys and we came to the conclusion that I only like crinkly toys. My crate is where I feel very safe, I like to hang out on the bed with my foster mom but I sleep in my crate very well, and I’m 100% crate trained. I’m comfortable on a harness and leash for going on my daily walks and I’m decently comfortable riding in the car. I’m looking for a family that will be patient with me while I get comfortable and that’s going to love me forever. Sadie is spayed, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative and microchipped. She is fostered in the Orlando area and her adoption donation is $375.

Wally, a Chihuahua mix

Meet Wally! Wally is a 10 week old male Chihuahua mix and he currently weighs about 4 pounds. Please know he is still growing and we do not know who daddy was (he didn't stick around, probably trying to dodge pup support, lol!) and mom weighs about 15 pounds. We anticipate him staying under 25 pounds, but we can't promise that. Wally arrived in rescue just ahead of Hurricane Milton after being born at animal services where mom was brought in as a stray. No one came for them and they needed a safe place to evacuate to as the hurricane approached, so the family settled into a loving foster home where they have been raised and showered with love.

He is ready to find a forever family to call his own though - one that is up for all things puppy - including house training, leash training, learning what to chew and not chew along with continued socialization and manners, using positive reinforcement of course. His foster mom says, "Wally is a sweet boy who loves to snuggle. He has a big personality and likes to express his opinion when told no. He has lots of energy and spunk and loves to play!" Wally 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 $375.

Elise, a Poodle mix

Meet Elise! Elise is a 2 year old female Poodle mix and she weighs about 7 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 home to call her own. Her foster mom says, "Elise is a vibrant, high energy, Poodle mix pup with a heart full of love to give. She’s the perfect mix of playful and cuddly and always ready for a snuggle session on the couch. Elise is currently working through some anxiety and will thrive in a home with patient owners who can continue helping her build confidence.

Because of her needs, we recommend a home without young children or larger dogs, where she can feel safe and supported. She does well with other smaller dogs. Elise likes to be underfoot, so a home without senior humans (or ones who are fall risks) is probably a good idea. Elise walks well on a leash and is house trained on a schedule. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will bring endless joy to your life, Elise may be the perfect match!" She is spayed, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, microchipped and has had her teeth cleaned. Elise is fostered in the Orlando area and her adoption donation is $475.

Nena, a Chihuahua mix

Meet Nena! Nena is a 3 year old female Chihuahua mix and she weighs about 17 pounds, although she needs to lose a few. She arrived in rescue ahead of Hurricane Milton after delivering puppies at animal services. The entire family arrived in rescue ahead of the storm and settled into foster care nicely. The puppies are fully weaned and mama is ready for a forever family to call her very own! Her foster mom says, "Nena is a sweetheart! She's very friendly and eager to please. She loves to roll in the grass and get dirty. Nena listens when spoken and would make a wonderful edition to a family looking for a dog who just wants love.

She's great with other dogs and cats. She occasionally likes to chase the cats for fun (though most cats would not appreciate this). Nena likes to use her vocal cords at doorbells and other dogs barking. She is house trained on a schedule and never chews anything here. Overall, she is a very sweet girl!" Nena 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 $300.

Princess, a Chihuahua/Poodle/Terrier mix

Meet Princess! Princess is a 5 year old Chihuahua/Poodle/Terrier mix and she weighs about 15 pounds. She arrived in rescue after being left at animal services when her family could not care for her. She was very scared there and needed to decompress in a foster home. She has settled in well and her foster mom says she would like to introduce herself: Hi! My name is Princess. My foster mommy calls me Pretty Pretty Princess! I love my foster mommy, but I am ready to find a family of my own. I would love to be a spoiled only "princess". While I get along with the other dogs in the house.

I don't like the others joining me with my foster mommy snuggling on the couch watching reruns on TV (my favorite show is Mama's Family). I like to tuck myself in under a blanket to sleep. If you want to get my attention, food works every time! I'm very cautious around new people but once I get to know you, I'll be your best friend! I do not really like men very much and will bark at them, so I really need a girls-only home please!" Princess 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 $300.
