Savannah, a Havanese/Shih Tzu mix
 
Meet Savannah! Savannah is an 8 year old female Havanese/Shih Tzu mix and she weighs about 15 pounds. She arrived in rescue when her previous human passed away and there was no one to care for her. Savannah was understandably confused and upset, but her foster mom has worked hard to gain her trust. Her foster mom says, "Meet this pint-sized princess with a dash of sass and a whole lot of heart. She might play it cool at first — giving you a little side-eye from across the room — but once she knows you’re a safe space, she turns into a total cuddle bug. With a diva personality and a love for her routines, she’d thrive best in a calm, kid-free home where she can feel confident and secure. She’s a potty pro — once she’s on a schedule, she sticks to it like a champ. No accidents here!
 
She’s also a big fan of toys — squeaky, bouncy, crinkly, you name it — and could do well with another dog buddy, as long as they’re respectful and not too over-the-top. And don’t even get us started on her leash manners — flawless. She walks like a lady, enjoying her daily neighborhood strolls with confidence and style. She’s still working on getting fully comfortable in the crate, but she’s already making good progress. With a little patience and positive reinforcement, she’s well on her way to being a crate pro too! If you’re looking for a loyal little companion with a touch of sass, a love for routine, and a heart full of snuggles, this girl just might be your perfect match." Savannah is spayed, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, microchipped and has had her teeth cleaned. She is fostered in the the Orlando area and Savannah's adoption donation is $350.
 

Stormy, a Labradoodle
 
Meet Stormy! Stormy is a 9 month old male Labradoodle and he weighs about 27 pounds. Stormy could reach up to 35-45 pounds when he is full grown as he is still growing. Stormy is *not hypoallergenic* and he does shed. He arrived in rescue when his previous home was just not up for all things puppy. He will need a family willing to work with him on house training, leash training, continued socialization and learning what is ok to chew on and what isn't. His foster mom says, "Meet Stormy – your daily dose of chaos, cuddles and comedy! Stormy is the life of the paw-ty! This friendly little guy lives for human attention and adores kids—even the sticky-fingered ones. 
 
He’s full of energy, curiosity and classic puppy shenanigans (yes, that includes swiping snacks off counters like a furry ninja). Stormy is still mastering the art of being a grown up dog, so be ready for all the fun stuff: crate training, house training, leash manners and learning that your shoes are not chew toys (even if they smell like adventure). If you’re looking for a fun loving pup who will keep you on your toes and fill your days with laughs, Stormy is your guy! Bring on the treats, the toys and the training—he’s ready for his forever home and his forever besties!" Stormy is neutered, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative and microchipped. He is fostered in the Orlando area and his adoption donation is $550.
 
 

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.
 
 

Jorge, a Dachshund/Chihuahua/Min Pin mix
 
Meet Jorge! Jorge is a 2 year old male Dachshund/Chihuahua/Min Pin mix and he weighs about 10 pounds. He arrived in rescue after coming from a house with too many dogs that could not properly care for him. He did not have much socialization but is doing well in foster care and is ready for a forever home to help him continue to be the best pup he can be! His foster mom says, "Sadly, Jorge came from a 'hoard house' and has never learned how to 'dog', so he will require an extremely patient, special owner. He's quite skittish and will need a crate in his new home that we recommend he be permitted to stay inside for his first few days (pee pads for him to wee on and a towel for him to sleep on). He's VERY sweet, not high energy, not aggressive- so loving touches, kind speak will do him nicely while he unwinds with you. He definitely takes time to warm up, but once he does, he is a MEGA LOVER! He is sooo affectionate- he wants to be CLOSE- at least touching you and often ON YOU!!! 
 
He doesn't like open spaces and after two months, still hasn't explored his home, which gives you an idea of just how scaredy this boy is. But he LOVES sofa hang out or lap time- and he wants to sleep in the big bed with you all night. He will require a FULLY fenced, secure yard due to his being so skittish in order to help with his house training. And, he does NOT like harnesses or leashes yet- so, the adopter will need to work with him on this. Jorge is a very smart dog, and with patience, we are confident that he will do well. BUT- he will most likely always be a very skittish dog with strangers coming into the home. Car rides aren't his thing, either. So, this dude is a challenge! But, he is sooo LOVING and if you want a cuddly, sweet, funny dude that you are willing to devote some time and effort towards- Jorge might be your guy!" Jorge 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 $375.
 
 

Pebbles,a Yorkie mix
 
Meet Pebbles! Pebbles is a 1-2 year old female Yorkie mix and she weighs about 5 pounds. She arrived in rescue after coming from a home with too many pups that could not properly care for her. She was not super socialized, but is working hard to learn that humans are kind and can be trusted. Her foster mom says, "Meet Pebbles – your diamond in the ruff! This beautiful girl may start out shy, but don’t let that fool you. 
 
Once you earn her trust, she becomes the most loyal, loving little shadow you could ask for! Pebbles is looking for a patient and understanding human who sees the magic in slow beginnings and the beauty in building trust. She’s a playful pup who adores romping around with other dogs and tossing her toys around. Cats, however, are more of a “chase now, apologize never” situation—so a cat free home is ideal. Pebbles is a peaceful soul, not one for barking just to hear herself talk. Her favorite pastime? Cozy, blissful naps on the couch where she can curl up and feel safe. She’s currently working on her pad training and doing her best! If you’re ready to invest a little love and time, Pebbles will repay you with endless affection and the kind of bond that only comes from earning it. She’s not just a pet—she’s a project of the heart." Pebbles 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 $425.
 
 

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.

 
 

Raven, a Shih Tzu
 
Meet Raven! Raven is a 2 year old female Shih Tzu and she weighs about 10 pounds. She arrived in rescue when her previous family could no longer care for her. She is a sweet girl who has settled into foster care nicely, but would love a forever family to call her own. Her foster dad said she would like to introduce herself: Hi, my name is Raven. I’m a super sweet and friendly little girl. In my spare time, I like to play with toys, chew on bones and run around the yard with you.  I am more of a “free spirit” and do not like being locked in a crate.  
 
If you try it, I will bark and scratch very loudly until you let me out…but that’s just to make sure you do not forget about me.  I am great with older kids and other dogs, but my ideal situation would be a home where I am the only dog, so I do not have to compete for attention, food or treats.  I will also need a house with no shared walls and someone who can be home with me most of the day would be great!  I am house trained but can have an occasional accident if I get too excited.  Anyway, if you’re looking for a loving and playful new friend who is full of personality, you should definitely pick me! Raven 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.
 
 

Calypso, a Standard Poodle
 
Meet Calypso! Calypso is a 2 1/2 year old female Standard Poodle and she weighs about 50 pounds. She arrived back in rescue when both of her humans unfortunately unexpectedly passed away and no one in the family could care for her. Calypso arrived to us matted due to the unfortunate circumstance her recent grooming appointment was missed. She had to be shaved, but her coat is already starting to grow back in nicely. She was understandably confused and sad at first, but has settled into her foster home and is ready to find a family to call her own again. Her foster mom says, "Calypso is a great dog, an affectionate, calm and gentle pooch. She was a little shy when she first arrived in foster care but quickly warmed up. She's a little rough when playing with small dogs and cats, but gets along splendidly with dogs of her same size and temperment. Calypso joins with the others chasing around the fenced yard when we are all outside but is always happy to come in and settle down with her humans.
 
She's house trained on a schedule and she does well on a harness with leash. She barks occasionally at new people and strange noises, so no shared walls. She is crate trained and happily enters when a treat is offered. She is tall enough to counter surf so beware what you leave out. Calypso seeks attention but is not needy. Due to her size, no frail adults or small tykes, as her enthusiasm may result in a tumble. I think she would be fine with dog savvy older children. Although  she eagerly plays with her pals, I believe she would also be fine as an only dog. Calypso is loving and eager to please. Open your home and your heart to her and she will bring a smile to your face!" Calypso is spayed, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, microchipped and has had her teeth cleaned. She is fostered in the Flagler Beach area and her adoption donation is $400.
 
 

Danica, a Pomsky
 
Meet Danica! Danica is a 3-4 year old female Pomsky and she weighs about 21 pounds. She arrived in rescue after her previous family could no longer care for her. She is a sweet girl who has settled into foster care nicely, but is ready to find a forever family to call her own. Her foster mom says, "Meet Danica – A Gentle Soul Looking for a Patient, Loving Home! Danica is a sweet, shy girl with a heart full of love. She prefers the comfort of a quiet corner where she can safely watch the world go by. While she may be reserved at first, with time and patience, Danica is sure to blossom into the confident, joyful dog we know she can be. Naturally submissive and incredibly gentle, Danica is easy to handle and has a truly kind spirit—she doesn’t have a mean bone in her body. 
 
She enjoys spending time in the backyard and is doing well with her house training, regularly going outside to take care of her business.  She is crate trained if needed but doesn’t require a crate while you’re gone. Leash walks are a bit scary for her right now, so a secure, fenced yard is a must. Danica also thrives in the company of other dogs and is happy to share her space with furry friends who want to hang out with her. She would do best in a calm, supportive home with another dog to help her feel more confident and comfortable. I tell everyone that meets Danica, you just have to make her love you. If you’re willing to go at her pace and give her the love she deserves, Danica will reward you with a lifetime of quiet companionship and unconditional love." Danica 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 $400.
 
 

Zuma, a Goldendoodle
 
Meet Zuma! Zuma is a 4 month old female Goldendoodle and she weighs about 18 pounds. She is still a growing girl and will be a full size Goldendoodle (not a mini, and she DOES shed, she is NOT "hypoallergenic") and could be over 50 pounds full grown. She arrived in rescue when her litter was surrendered. Zuma will need a family that is up for all things puppy - including house training, leash training, continued socialization and all her proper life skills. Her foster mom says, "Meet Zuma! She is a shy, skittish pup who’s still learning that the world—and people—can be safe and kind. While she may run from strangers at first, she’s made amazing progress since arriving in her foster home. Her trust is earned, not given, but once you’re in her circle, you’ll see her tail wag and her eyes light up just for you. She’ll often wait until the crowd forms before she gets brave enough to approach, especially when her favorite person walks in the door.
 
With patience and a little time, Zuma will blossom in a home that gives her space, love and a gentle routine.  At a meet and greet, please know Zuma will be super scared and will likely not interact much. Her new family will need to understand this and expect it ahead of meeting her. True to her puppy spirit, Zuma is full of curiosity, has a big appetite and is always up for some fun once she feels safe. She’s looking for a calm but playful family who can help her continue to build confidence and enjoy all the things dogs should—snacks, zoomies, naps and love. If you’re the kind of person who understands that some hearts take a little longer to open, Zuma might just be your perfect match!" Zuma 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 $525.
 
 

Franny, a Chihuahua/Yorkie mix
 
Meet Franny! Franny is a 5-6 month old female Chihuahua/Yorkie mix and she weighs about 5 pounds. She is still a growing girl and could be 8-15 pounds when she is full grown, we have no way to predict her actual adult weight. Franny arrived in rescue as part of an accidental litter. She is looking for a family that is up for all the challenges of puppyhood - house training, leash training, continued socialization and learning what is acceptable to chew on. Her foster mom says, "Meet Franny, the adorable gray scruffy puppy with a heart full of love and a tongue that’s always ready to greet you!This sweet girl is not just a pretty face... her playful spirit will make your heart melt!
 
Franny is currently honing her house training skills and is thriving with a consistent schedule. Her endearing personality shines through as she explores the world around her, tail wagging and tongue hanging out. Franny loves cuddling up after a play session, making every moment special. With a little patience and love, she's ready to become a beloved member of your family. Her zest for life and gentle nature will surely bring joy and laughter into your home. Don't miss the chance to welcome this lovable pup into your life!" Franny 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 $450.
 
 

Brooke, a Maltese mix
 
Meet Brooke! Brooke is a 7-9 year old female Maltese mix and she weighs about 7 pounds. She arrived in rescue when her previous family could no longer take care of her. She arrived with a few issues, including a mammary mass, that needed to be addressed. She has had them all resolved and is thriving in foster care, but is ready to find her forever home! Her foster mom says, "Meet Brooke! She is a sweet gentle older pup looking for her forever home. 
 
Brooke likes to hangout on the patio with us and taking short naps. When Brooke is not napping, she loves to snuggle with her foster parents on the couch. Brooke is good with other dogs and cats. She is not much into playing in the yard or with toys, she just wants love. Brooke is potty pad trained and we are working on full house training. She is getting better with a consistent schedule." Brooke 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 $350.
 
 

Cafecita, a Schnauzer/Poodle mix
 
Meet Cafecita!  Cafecita is an 8-10 year old female Schnauzer/Poodle mix and she weighs about 13 pounds. She arrived in rescue after coming from a home with too many dogs that could not properly care for her. She has settled into foster care nicely, but is ready for a forever home to call her own.  Her foster mom says, "This sweet girl is ready to find her forever home. Cafecita, AKA Cara, bonds to women quicker than men, but does warm up after a few weeks. However, please know that when your husband/partner/kids come home she will have something to say about it, but quickly settles with some correction. Please know that she will bark at the men in her home when they move around. She settles, but she feels sure she needs to let them know she is unimpressed with their movement. Work from home? Cafecita will keep you company as she loves to be near her person but don’t expect much work out of her because she will be happily snoozing close by. She’s there for moral support only! Someone home more than gone is preferred. 
 
Another pup in the home would be ideal. Although she doesn’t play with her fur friends in the home, she likes to hang out with them. Cafecita is not a fan of being  crated and will bark the entire time she’s in one. She will need a home with no shared walls!! She has a lot to say when you leave the house. She is not 100% house trained, but we are working on this. Cafecita walks well on leash but be prepared to walk at turtle speed. She has no desire to win a race!" Cafecita 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.
 
 

Blitz, a Maltipoo
 
Meet Blitz! Blitz is a 3 month old male Maltipoo and he weighs about 5 pounds. He is still growing and could be up to 15-20 pounds when full grown. Blitz arrived in rescue when his previous family just was not up for a puppy and all of the challenges of puppyhood. Blitz will need a family that is up for all things puppy - including house training, leash training, continued socialization and all her proper life skills. His foster mom says, "Say hello to Blitz! Blitz is a sweet, spirited little pup with a big voice and an even bigger heart. This young guy is full of energy and curiosity—and he’s got a lot to say about it! From happy barks to adorable “conversations,” Blitz is quite the little talker. (Fair warning: he’s better suited for a home without shared walls, so his vocal talents don’t keep the neighbors up!)
 
Blitz is on a journey to master all the puppy essentials: leash walking, house training, crate manners, and discovering what not to chew on (sorry, shoes!). With a healthy appetite and a brain eager to learn, he’s ready for a family who’s patient, loving and excited to help him grow into the well behaved companion he’s destined to be. Blitz can often be underfoot, so a home with any one who is a trip and fall hazard (senior humans and small kiddos!) is not a match for him. If you’re looking for a sweet, chatty and playful pup who’ll keep you smiling—and maybe talking back—Blitz is your perfect match!" Blitz 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 $525.
 
 

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.
 
 

Scotch, a Labradoodle
 

Meet Scotch! Scotch is a 5 month old male Labradoodle and he weighs about 17 pounds. He could reach up to 25-40 pounds when he is full grown as he is still growing. Scotch is *not hypoallergenic* and he does shed. Scotch arrived in rescue when his previous home was just not up for all things puppy. He will need a family willing to work with him on house training, leash training, continued socialization and learning what is ok to chew on and what isn't. His foster mom says, "Say hello to Scotch – the toy-carrying, tail-wagging attention sponge you never knew you needed! Scotch is a happy-go-lucky pup with a heart full of love and a mouth full of… toys.

 
Always. Seriously, he’s never without one—he might just try to take one to bed, or to your Zoom meeting. He’s friendly with everyone, great with older kids and always down to play, snuggle or soak up all the scratches you’re willing to give. But don’t let his charm fool you—Scotch is still very much in his “everything is exciting and chewable” puppy phase. That means he’s working on all the things... crate training, leash skills, house training and remembering that furniture isn’t a jungle gym. If you’re ready to laugh, train and fall head over heels, Scotch is waiting to meet you (with a toy in his mouth, obviously)!" Scotch 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 $525.
 
 

Fonzie, a Yorkie mix
 
Meet Fonzie! Fonzie is a 1 year old male Yorkie mix and he weighs about 11 pounds. He arrived in rescue after coming from a home with too many pups that could not care for them all properly. He is full of puppy energy and is ready to find a forever family full of energy too! His foster mom says, "Fonzie is a great little dog - super energetic, loya, and affectionate. He will jump on you to show his excitement when he sees you (we are working on this!). He is also a chewer and mouthy on ankles, shoes, fingers, toes, hands, shoe strings, just about anything. Fonzie needs toys to channel that behavior, otherwise everything is fair game! He loves to play to the extreme and is not afraid to challenge even the large dogs. My little ones, my seniors and my cats don't care for his robust behavior. He's not a fan of a crate and will let you know his displeasure. He barks at strangers and new sounds, so no shared walls.  
 
He's a bolter, so be sure your garage door is down before you go out! Fonzie's house trained on a schedule, but I haven't noticed any particular sign to let me know when he needs to go out. He's ok on leash and harness (likes to chew the leash), but his new family will need to continue this training, He likes to roam from food bowl to food bowl, so containment is necessary if other pets are also being fed. He likes to sit in the water bowl to cool off - when we noticed, we got him a pool! He loves to sleep on the bed with us at night.  I believe Fonzie would do best with an active family, a playful canine friend of comparable size and temperment and a fenced yard.  He loves to run, so several walks a day if your yard is not fenced. He would be fine as an only pet, as long as his high energy needs are addressed. No small children or frail adults, as his enthusiasm could result in a tumble. Due to his small size and energy, I think he would be ok with older, dog savvy kids. He will be a fun and loving addition to his forever home. Could you be the lucky one?" Fonzie is neutered, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative and microchipped. He is fostered in the Flagler Beach area and his adoption donation is $400.
