Jimmy, a Yorkie/Chihuahua mix

Meet Jimmy! Jimmy is a 4 month old male Chihuahua/Yorkie mix and he weighs about 6 pounds, but he is still growing and could be up to 15-20 pounds when full grown, we just don’t have a way to predict his adult size” after the “6 pounds". He arrived in rescue when his previous family realized they were not up for a puppy and could no longer care for him. He is being spoiled in foster care but would love to find a forever family that is up for all things puppy - house training, leash training, learning what to chew and not chew, His foster mom says, "I’ve fostered enough pups to know when I get one that’s really special and believe me this guy is one of the special ones! He’s such a good sweet boy! He’s all puppy and loves everyone including other dogs and cats. He’ll try to play with them, but if they’re not into it, he’ll respect their boundaries. He mostly wants to be glued to your side snuggling.

He already knows some commands and we’re working on house training, but like all puppies it’s going to take time and patience.He’s still working on learning that fingers aren’t for chewing on and needs to be continuously redirected to chew on a toy instead. He loves walks and did I mention snuggles? We’re working on getting him confident to be independent. He’s been left alone for a few hours and cries for a bit, but then settles down and will sleep or play with the other dogs so I haven’t been concerned that he has separation anxiety. I tried to keep him in a pen at night and he busted out in two minutes and spent the rest of the night and every night after snuggled right next to me. I have Chihuahuas and I can attest that even though he is a Chi/Yorkie mix, his bark is all Chihuahua, IYKYK. He would be great in a home with another pet that has the energy to play with him, but I think he would also be great as an only dog." Jimmy 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 $475.

Cookies, a Labradoodle

Meet Cookies! Cookies is an 8 month old female Labradoodle and she weighs about 23 pounds. She is still a growing girl, but she should stay under 50 pounds when full grown. Cookies arrived in rescue after her previous family simply was not up for a puppy and all the energy she needs. Cookies is an active, smart puppy who will need a family up for all things puppy and doodle - leash training, house training, continued socialization. She is a doodle so she does need regular grooming. Her foster mom says, "Cookies is a typical puppy; playful, friendly and happy.

She loves to be outside with us playing chase with her friends or digging in the dirt to find out what secrets are buried in there. She is very smart and is doing a good job learning to walk on a leash and to "potty" outside. Cookies loves attention and will make sure you don't forget she is there. She also enjoys snuggling in bed at night and will give you sweet goodnight kisses. She still needs to learn some puppy manners like not jumping up and what is permissible to chew on and what is not. She gets along well with other dogs but can be barky when she is playing. A home without shared walls would be ideal for her, as well as someone who is home a decent amount of the time." Cookies is spayed, up to date on vaccines, on flea and heartworm prevention and microchipped. She is fostered in the Orlando area and here adoption donation is $525.

Roberto, a Yorkie/Shih Tzu mix

Meet Roberto!! Roberto is a 10 year old, 11 pound male Yorkie/Shih Tzu mix. He arrived in rescue when his previous family could no longer are for him. He has settled into foster care but is ready to find a forever family to call his own. His foster mom says, "This guy is 10 years old and still in his prime! He acts no older than a 5 year old dog. He is such a spicy, fun and outgoing pup. He tends to be a bit possessive over his toys towards other dogs, not food though. I think he’d do fine in a home with another dog, as long as they’re laid back like he is, but on the other hand, he’d be just fine with being the only dog and getting all the love he can. Roberto knows sit and listens very well to correction on what not to do.

He has a special talent for making his foster parents laugh every single day at his adorable personality. You’ll always find him scratching, rolling and rubbing his face on any rug he can find. I promise you he will bring joy and laughter into your life! He eats his dog food well and is house trained on a schedule and crate trained. When I first brought him home, he jumped immediately on the couch and made himself right at home. He will take naps on the couch and enjoys his fenced in yard but he walks fabulously on a leash and harness. His favorite part of the day is hanging on the couch in the evening snuggled up with his humans watching tv. He barks some when he’s playing and wants a snack or someone’s at the door. He eats his dog food well and will never pass up any extra snack he can get. Roberto has such a gentle soul and wants you to know to not let his age fool you, he’s full of life!" 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 $300.

Priscilla, a Poodle/Yorkie/Schnauzer mix

Meet Priscilla! Priscilla is a 2-3 year old female Poodle/Yorkie/Schnauzer mix and she weighs about 9 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 family to call her very own. Her foster mom says, "Priscilla is so so sweet and loving. She is so gentle and loves greeting her humans when they come in or she is let out of the crate. Priscilla is great in the crate besides the occasional barking and whining, but ultimately settles nicely.

No shared walls might be better for Priscilla, if her humans are gone for longer periods of time. She does great on a harness and leash and absolutely loves going on walks. A yard would not be a necessity for this girl, although she might enjoy one. Priscilla has done great with dogs of all sizes and doesn’t seem too interested in small animals. She seems like she’d do good with dog savvy kids, and has been gentle in interactions. She is a bit submissive but that doesn’t stop her from jumping at your legs for pets! This girl loooves love. She isn’t too interested in toys yet but I think she’d love stuffed toys. She is doing great with house training on a schedule and has only had one accident since I’ve had her. Priscilla can be independent, but loves to stick by her humans. She eats decently but may leave her food for when she’s hungry later. She has started taking treats and likes them quite a bit! Priscilla is such a sweet, friendly, and calm girl. If you’re looking for a gentle pup, who would love nothing more than to sit on your couch and hang out with you, Priscilla is your girl!: She is spayed, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, microchipped and has had her teeth cleaned. Priscilla is fostered in the Orlando area and her adoption donation is $450.

Rusty, a French Bulldog/Akita mix

Meet Rusty! Rusty is a 3 month old French Bulldog/Akita mix and he weighs about 12 pounds. Please know Rusty is a growing puppy and could grow up to weigh over 50 pounds. He was born in foster care after his momma arrived in rescue heavily pregnant. Mom is a pure French Bulldog and according to the DNA test, dad was an Akita, but in looking at him and his littermates, it’s like mom’s genes didn’t even really try, LOL. He has been in a loving foster home since arriving via c-section and has been thriving. He is an active puppy that will need a family up for all things puppyhood brings - leash training, house training, socialization and learning that flip flops are for feet, not food.

The entire litter are happy, bouncy, rambunctious boys who love to play, but also love to snuggle their humans and see what mischief they can get into.They will need a family that will make sure to work on their continued socialization as both breeds can be known for their protective tendencies if not properly socialized starting at a young age. His foster mom says. "Rusty is a true sweetheart! He is a ton of fun and always up for an adventure and playtime. They are still very new at house training and leash training, but he is working on it! Rusty is a precious pup and going to bring a lucky family a lot of joy and love!" Rusty 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.

Teddy, a Maltese/Yorkie mix

Meet Teddy! Teddy is a 5 year old male Maltese/Yorkie mix and he weighs about 11 pounds. He arrived in rescue when his previous family could no longer care for him. He has settled into foster care and is doing great, but is ready to find a forever family to call his own! His foster mom says:, "Meet Teddy, the terrific! Teddy would want you to know he is pure adorableness. You could easily mistake him for a muppet. He is also quite the talker. If you are not familiar with pups who talk it can be a bit scary at first, but he likes to climb up on you with his face pressed to yours, his snout next to your ear and loudly grrr, grrr, grrrr. The more you pet him the longer it goes on – his version of a purr. He is a big goofball. He loves to play with toys, he loves to eat, he wants in your lap or next to you as often as he can be. Your purpose in life then becomes wrapped around him – petting him, acting as his mattress, being his companion. He can be a bit jealous of others receiving attention, so care should be taken when children or other pets are around. He is determined pup and a person experienced with dealing with a headstrong dog would be advised. Teddy is quite handsome and has soft, beautiful, fluffy fur and it will take a bit to maintain that gorgeous look. He will need a daily face wash and brushing with regular trips to the groomer. Teddy is the epitome of a Velcro dog. Do you have a lap and a hand? You are what he is looking for. He wants ALL the attention. He does not want to share. He gets upset when you leave the house and is very excited when you return.

Gone to the mailbox, for 5 minutes, gone for the day? It won’t matter – he’s excited you are back! Teddy is good in the backyard to explore. On a leash he pulls some, but is just happy being out and about and with you. Teddy has been around other pups his size and generally gets along well, as long as he is in your lap and receiving ALL the attention. He has not shown any food issues but will quickly check any other bowls to make sure nothing was left behind and will push his nose in front when treats are handed out. Teddy takes to a crate but will express his displeasure for a few minutes, then he calms down and will keep himself occupied with a stuffed toy or bone. He is great with letting you know when he has to go out, he scratches at the door and makes noises for you to notice. When left alone he has been known to mark his territory, so crating when you are not home is advised. This could also be in reaction to the other pups in the home, if a pup has marked their territory, he would be compelled to do the same. He would do quite nicely as an only dog. His bark is a bit loud, so no shared walls of an apartment, townhome, or condo is also advised. Let’s not forget the fact that he is a talker and folks not familiar with a talker may take his attempts at discussion as being mean. As the foster family notes; he has had no sign of aggressive behavior; he is telling his story and folks not familiar with that may not see it the same way. Teddy knows his name, knows the word no, and has been a source of entertainment. This goofball is eagerly awaiting someone who needs a loyal companion, and he is just that guy. He can be a little head strong when he wants. He plays hard and he naps hard, but no outside noise goes unnoticed. We love watching him get the zoomies, usually running full tilt with a toy in his mouth." Teddy 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.

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, "Danica is a super sweet but shy girl. She prefers to find a quiet spot to safely watch all the goings on around her. She will need a patient family that helps her build her confidence and blossom into the wonderful dog we know she can be.

She is very submissive and doesn't have a mean bone in her body so she is easily handled. Danica enjoys the backyard and does a good job of going outside to do her "business". She is fearful on a leash so a fenced yard is a must for her. She gets along well with other dogs and will share her spot with anyone who wants to hang out with her." 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.

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, "If you want a constant companion that will provide never ending devotion, this is your pup. Kingsley is ok by himself, or in a home with another dog, just needs to be a calmer dog. 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.

You cannot crate him as he has separation anxiety while in the crate but in the home while you’re gone, he is such a great boy. He is smart -too smart for his own good sometimes and a sweet boy. He has been playing and playing with the other foster in the home and he sure 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 would love nothing more than to sleep on your pillows at night with you and shower you with all the love. 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!" Kingsley 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 $325.

Dalton, a Pomsky

Meet Dalton! Dalton is a 3-4 year old male Pomsky and he weighs about 15 pounds. He arrived in rescue when his previous family could no longer care for him. Dalton arrived to rescue matted to the skin so he needed to be shaved, but his coat is starting to grow back in nicely. He has settled into foster care well but is ready to find his forever family. His foster mom says, "Dalton is a happy and playful guy.

He is cautious around strangers and takes a little time to warm up but he is eager for attention and can be won over with treats. He loves to play in the yard with his foster siblings and tug-o-war is a favorite. Dalton has manners and doesn't get on the furniture and prefers to sleep on the floor or in a dog bed. He is not a big barker and tends only to bark if everyone else is barking. He has done well with house training as long as he is on a schedule. He is a little nervous on a leash so a fenced yard would be best for him. Dalton gets along well with other dogs big and small." He is neutered, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, microchipped and has had his teeth cleaned. Dalton is fostered in the Orlando area and his adoption donation is $400.

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.

Bonnie, a Yorkie

Meet Bonnie! Bonnie is a 10-12 year old female Yorkie and she weighs about 10 pounds. She arrived in rescue when her previous family could no longer care for her. Bonnie has settled into foster care, but would love a family to call her own again. Her foster mom says, "Bonnie is a sweet girl, but is very anxious at first. You need to give her some time. Once she has settled in her personality starts to show. When she gets excited, she taps her feet really fast. She likes to play in her water bowl, but we are working on it. Bonnie likes to be held. She also likes blankets, dog beds and the couch to do her relaxing.

She would be more than happy to sleep in her human's bed every night. She does not play with toys at the moment, although that may change once she settles in more.She gets along well with other dogs but we're not sure about cats. She has a very calm demeanor and would probably be fine with them. Bonnie doesn't need a crate and is housetrained on a schedule. She will use puppy pads when needed. She likes to sit out in the yard with you on a nice sunny day. She does not walk on a leash and will need a fenced area. " Bonnie 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.

Herman, a Pomeranian

Meet Herman! Herman is a 3 year old male Pomeranian mix and he weighs about 11 pounds. He arrived in rescue when he came from a house with too many other dogs that could not properly care for him. He has settled into foster care nicely but would love a family to call his own. His foster mom says, "What a sweet soul this pup is! There is nothing more he’d rather do than be snuggled up on the couch with his humans watching the tv and possibly watching the world go by on the back of the couch looking out the window. He plays very well with my bigger and smaller dogs and thinks he needs to be the center of attention always. (He literally is ALWAYS the center of attention LOL). He’d love another younger pup to play with, but I think he’d be just fine as an only dog. Herman is very good about going to the bathroom outside with no accidents in the house or crate as long as he is on a schedule.

He sleeps in his crate at night and while we’re gone, but he’d love to sleep in the bed with his humans. He eats his dog food well and walks on a leash and harness. I haven’t heard him use his big boy voice too much, but he will bark if my other pups are barking at the door. My fiance and I laugh at him and his antics all the time, he has such a personality and always needs his belly rubbed. He rides well in the car in his crate and is such a smart boy. His favorite time is the after bath zoomies. If you're looking for a loyal companion who will fill your days with love and happiness, Herman is your pup!" He is neutered, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, microchipped and has had his teeth cleaned! Herman is fostered in the Orlando area and his adoption donation is $425.

Jester, a Shih Tzu

Meet Jester!! Jester is a 1-2 year old male Shih Tzu and he weighs about 14 pound. He arrived in rescue when his previous family could not properly care for him. He has settled into foster care nicely, but is ready to find a family to call his own forever! His foster mom says, "Looking for a cuddle buddy who'll make your heart smile? That's Jester! He has a heart full of love and a tail that never stops wagging. He’d love nothing more than to follow his person around, waiting to make his next move on how he can be closer. (At your feet, in your lap, on your chest while you sleep, LOL). When I first brought him home, he warmed up immediately; jumped right on the couch and started rubbing. I have smaller and larger dogs and he does fabulous with both.

If you have a smaller young pup that loves to play, he would be so happy. Jester eats his dog food well, walks amazing on a collar and harness and is pretty much fully house trained in the house on a schedule and in his crate. He sleeps in his crate while we’re gone and at night. He whines the first 5 minutes but settles well. He barks when someone comes in the door and uses his voice when he’s playing some, but nothing crazy. If you know the Shih Tzu talk, then you know exactly what I’m talking about! I really can’t say enough good things about this pup. He is so eager to do whatever you want to do. If you’re looking for a companion that will make your days brighter, Jester is the pup for you!!" He is neutered, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative and microchipped. Jester is fostered in the Orlando area and his adoption donation is $450.

Symphony, a Yorkie mix

Meet Symphony! Symphony is a 2 year old female Yorkie mix and she weighs about 10 pounds. She arrived in rescue from a home with too many dogs that could not properly care for her. She has settled into foster care nicely, but is ready to find a forever family to call her own. Her foster dad says she would like to introduce herself: Hi, my name is Symphony. I’m a very sweet and 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. Once I’m settled and feel safe, I love to run outside and play. I also like attention from my human and treats!

I would prefer a home with no young children or other animals (unless they are smaller than me) and a human who can be home with me most of the day. I currently like to sleep in my crate, but I do not like being locked up during the day. A home without shared walls would be best because I will bark when alone or locked up. I do not walk well on a leash and won't potty on one so I do need a fenced yard please. 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! Symphony 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 $375.

Potato, a Chihuahua/Yorkie mix

Hi Everyone, Meet Potato! Potato is a 4-6 year old male Chihuahua/Yorkie mix and he weighs about 7 pounds. He arrived in rescue after coming from a home with too many dogs that was unable to care for him. He has settled into foster care nicely but is ready to find a forever family to call his own. His foster mom says, "This pup is a ray of sunshine! There isn’t a lot more he’d rather do than be a couch potato! He does have some energy when you’re up and moving around. Potato loves to be at your feet and doing whatever you’re doing. Taking trips around the neighborhood is something he is super thrilled about...we have to stop to smell everything! He needs to walk on a harness rather than a collar with his leash. We have been very decent with only using the bathroom outside.

He isn’t crated while we are gone or at night, he prefers to sleep in the bed right next to his humans.While he doesn’t have any foster fur brothers and sisters at home, he gets along with other dogs just great, I do have a dog savvy cat and they get along just fine. Potato will definitely need some toys, he plays with them often and uses his big boy voice whenever he’s throwing them in the air. This is really the only time I have heard him bark. He's picked up on fetch, so be prepared for that. Potato’s perfect family is out there for him, waiting to take him on long strolls around the lake and on trips to the beach then to come home and be a couch potato after!" Potato 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 $325.

Elmer, a Shih Tzu mix

Meet Elmer! Elmer is a 9 week old male Shih Tzu/whole lot of cuteness mix and he weighs about 4 pounds. He arrived in foster care with his mom and littermates when he was just a day old after being born at animal services. The shelter is no place for a momma and newborns so they asked us to please take her in. The litter has been raised in a loving foster home and has been thriving. Elmer is ready to start looking for a forever family that is ready for all things puppy - house training, leash trashing, continued socialization and learning what to chew and what not to chew. He is a little guy now, but he is still growing. We expect him to stay under 25 pounds, but we can’t promise that.

We don’t know who dad is, since he didn’t stick around (we think he was dodging pup support). Elmer will thrive in a home with a family where he is not left alone all day and gets lots of mental and physical activity. His foster mom says, "Like his siblings, Elmer loves to play, but also enjoys cuddling. He is a soft and fluffy boy, with a healthy appetite. He is a ball of fluff that brings continual smiles to my face. It is very hard to not find him and his antics totally adorable, but I remind myself that positive reinforcement is needed to help him continue to be the best puppy he can be." Elmer 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.

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.

We don’t know who dad is, since he didn’t stick around (we think he was dodging pup support). Ferdinand will thrive in a home with a family where he is not left alone all day and gets lots of mental and physical activity. His foster mom says, "Ferdinand is the "Big Brother" of the litter. Always the first to the "milk bar", and later to the food bowl. He is a big ball of fluff!

He loves to cuddle and he also enjoys rough housing with his brother and sister. While he is a ball of fluff that brings continual smiles to my face, it is very hard to not find him and his antics totally adorable, but I remind myself that positive reinforcement is needed to help him continue to be the best puppy he can be."

Jellybean, a Terrier/Poodle mix

Meet Jellybean! Jellybean is a 2-3 year year old male Terrier/Poodle mix and he weighs about 18 pounds. He arrived in rescue after coming from a home with too many dogs that was not able to properly care for them. He has been settling into foster care and his foster mom says he would like to introduce himself as he begins to look for his forever family: Hi! My name is Jellybean and I am as sweet as my name! If you are looking for a loyal, loving companion, I'm your guy. I love my foster mommy, but I am ready to find a family of my own. I get very excited when my person comes home and can jump pretty high, My foster mommy says that I might not be good around small children because of that.

I would never try to hurt anyone, but she says I don't know my own strength and can be ram-bunk-shus, whatever that means.I love my fenced in yard but also can walk on a leash. I have to confess, if there is yummy smelling food left on the counter, I will take it. I've figured out how to get up on my foster mommy's kitchen counters. I just can't help myself! I also am somewhat selective of men in my life, so it may take me longer to warm up to them. If you think I would fit in with your family, please reach out. I would love to meet you! I promise you will love me as much as I will love you!" Jellybean is neutered, up to date on vaccines, heart worm negative, microchipped and has had his teeth cleaned. He is fostered in the Orlando area and his adoption donation is $350.

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.

Nicole, a Yorkie

Meet Nicole! Nicole is a 10-12 year old female Yorkie and she weighs about 9 pounds. She arrived in rescue when her previous family could no longer care for her. Nicole has settled into foster care, but would love a family to call her own again. Her foster mom says: Nicole is a sweet girl that loves to be held. She is timid and shy at first, but her personality comes out more as she adapts to her new environment. She loves to be held 24/7 and has to be the dog closest to you at all times. She is 100% a velcro dog and she loves belly rubs. Nicole is quiet and doesn’t bark much. You can take her everywhere as long as you are by her side.

She is good with other dogs or by herself. We are not sure about cats. She doesn’t walk well on a leash, so a fenced yard is needed for potty time. However, for going places, she is great in a sling. She is house trained and puppy pad trained. She goes out frequently and will use the puppy pads if you can’t take her out as often. No crate is needed, she will sleep in a dog bed next to the human. Her ideal adopter should be retired or work from home. Nicole 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.

Hobbes, a Yorkie/Shih Tzu mix

Meet Hobbes! Hobbes is a 5-6 month old male Yorkie/Shih Tzu mix and he weighs about 10 pounds. He is still a growing puppy and we can not predict his adult weight when full grown, but he *should* stay under 25 pounds, we just can't promise that. Hobbes came into rescue from a home with too many pups that was unable to properly care for him. He has settled into foster care, but is ready to begin life with a forever family to call his own. His foster mom says, "Hobbes is a sweet and laid back dog with a playful side! He's a real gem who loves to run and play with his toys, especially if treats are involved for a good game of fetch. When it's time to relax, Hobbes enjoys a comfortable snooze and would be happiest if that snooze could be on his human's bed. He's currently learning leash manners and is making good progress. Hobbes is housetrained on a schedule and will reliably let you know when he needs to go outside, though he also uses pee wee pads.

He has a wonderful temperament and gets along wonderfully with other dogs, cats and older children. This quiet boy is not a big barker and is truly an all around good companion. He's also a big fan of cuddles and is a friendly, outgoing dog who greets everyone he meets. Hobbes experiences some separation anxiety and will howl when left alone, so NO shared walls. He can NOT be left a full work day alone. Hobbes is looking for a loving home where he can get plenty of affection, opportunities for exercise, and ideally, a family who can be mindful of his desire for companionship. Could your home be the perfect match for this wonderful pup?" Hobbes 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 $475.

Elsie, a Shih Tzu mix

Meet Elsie! Elsie is a 9 week old female Shih-Tzu/whole lot of cuteness mix and she weighs about 4 pounds. She arrived in foster care with her mom and littermates when she was just a day old after being born at animal services. The shelter is no place for a momma and newborns so they asked us to please take her in. The litter has been raised in a loving foster home and has been thriving. Elsie is ready to start looking for a forever family that is ready for all things puppy - house training, leash trashing, continued socialization and learning what to chew and what not to chew.

She is a little girl now, but she is still growing. We expect her to stay under 25 pounds, but we can’t promise that. We don’t know who dad is, since he didn’t stick around (we think he was dodging pup support). Elsie will thrive in a home with a family where she is not left alone all day and gets lots of mental and physical activity. Her foster mom says: She enjoys playing with her brothers, but she is equally happy cuddling on your lap. She has super soft fur. Elsie also loves her food, and has a very healthy appetite. While she is a ball of fluff that brings continual smiles to my face, it is very hard to not find her and his antics totally adorable, but I remind myself that positive reinforcement is needed to help her continue to be the best puppy she can be." Elsie is spayeded, 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.

Mandy, a Yorkie/Poodle mix

Meet Mandy! Mandy is a 6-8 year old female Yorkie/Poodle mix and she weighs about 20 pounds. She arrived in foster care after coming from a home with too many dogs that could not properly care for them. She has settled into her foster home well and is ready to find a forever home to call her own. Her foster mom says, "Mandy is incredibly smart, confident and adventurous. She's a dedicated lizard/squirrel hunter. So much so, that when she is outside, it is hard to get her back in. She will run from you and bark to tell you she's not ready to end her adventures. When she wants to go outside to play, she is very persistent and vocal until you go out with her. No shared walls for this girl! When she goes outside, I try to get her to do her business first before the hunting/sniffing begins. She is also very good on a harness and leash and she loves going for walks and car rides. Mandy has no problems going into a crate and although she likes it, she's been introduced to sleeping on a doggie bed in her human's room.

She likes her independence and is not touchy-feely but is very demanding for attention. She's a people dog, very friendly to humans. However, not so friendly to other dogs, especially female dogs. She dislikes having her nails dremeled, but I've been slowly working up her confidence with it. She tolerates baths. Although she does well in a crate (goes in without a fuss, no accidents in there), she dislikes not being able to see her human and is very vocal for about it at bedtime. She doesn't like being alone. Mandy still isn't a fan of being petted but with time and trust, hopefully that will change. She is treat motivated, so that should help. I believe she'd make a great companion for someone in a one dog household that has a single family home due to her barking and not being gone a full workday. I'm not sure how she would do with children, but since she's easily excitable, I don't think being around younger children would be good fit." Mandy 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.
