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)
Clover, a Corgi
Meet Clover! Clover is a 7 month old female Corgi puppy and she weighs about 10 pounds. She is still growing and we can not predict her adult weight. Clover arrived in rescue when a corgi puppy just proved to be "too much puppy" for her previous family. Clover's new family will need to be prepared for the "T-rex" corgi puppy stage, IYKYK, as she is fully in it, LOL. Clover will need continued patience with her leash training, house training and learning that not everything in sight is a chew toy. Her foster mom says: Meet Clover! Looking for a best friend who's equal parts adorable, adventurous and full of puppy charm? Then Clover may be the perfect match for you! Like any young pup, Clover is still learning the ropes, so she will need a family thats excited to help her grow. She's looking for someone committed to all things puppy—house training, crate training, leash walking and all the fun (and sometimes silly!) moments that come with raising a young dog.
The time and patience you invest now will be rewarded with a loyal companion for years to come. Clover absolutely ADORES other dogs and would thrive in a home with another young, playful canine companion to help show her the ropes and burn off some puppy energy. A fenced yard would be a wonderful bonus, giving her a safe place to run, play, and explore, especially as she currently believes the leash is a torture device, LOL. Clover also loves older, dog savvy kiddos. Whether it's hiking a new trail, riding along on errands, or simply curling up after a day of adventures, Clover is ready to be your sidekick through it all. She's also a great eater and happily cleans her bowl at mealtime! If you're ready to embrace the puppy stage and are looking for a fun-loving companion to grow up by your side, Clover is waiting to meet you! Clover is spayed, up to date on vaccines, on flea and heart worm prevention and microchipped. She is fostered in the Orlando area and her adoption donation is $575.
Orville, a Mixed Breed
Meet Orville! Orville is a 9 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, so if you need a pup to stay a specific size, he is not the pup for you. 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 loving foster home and are thriving. A forever family will need to be up for all things puppy - including house training, leash training, learning what is ok to chew and not chew, as well as continued socialization.They would also do well with dog savvy kiddos. His foster mom says: Orville is a sweet, goofy, and playful boy. Although he is a unique mix, the basset characteristics seem to dominate his personality.
He is good natured and affectionate but also stubborn and independent, making a challenging companion to train. A forever family will need to be up for all things puppy, including house training (the biggest hurdle), leash training (working on it), and what is ok to chew (working on that too). He can be mouthy around hands and he loves to tear up everything, including pidde pads and piddle towels. He is very vocal (loud) and will bark at strange noises and sights, so no shared walls. Since his leash training and house training are still in progress, a fenced yard is a must. He is not a high energy athlete and has a low activity requirement, prefering to lounge around both inside and out. He gets along with my other dogs and cats and I believe he would do well with gentle, dog-savvy, older children. He likes to jump on people to get their attention, so no little tykes or frail adults. If you're up for the challenge, welcome Orville into your home. With love, patience, and consistency, guide him through puppyhood and watch him develop into a devoted and loyal companion. Orville is neutered, up to date on vaccines, on flea and heartworm prevention and microchipped. He is fostered in the Flagler Beach area and his adoption donation is $350.
Blade, a Chihuahua mix
Meet Blade! Blade is a 1 year old male Chihuahua mix and he weighs about 14 pounds. He arrived in rescue after being surrendered and being very scared. He has settled into foster care and is starting to thrive and is ready for a forever home. His foster mom says: Meet Blade! If you need a warm, fuzzy meet or a dog that is going to love you instantly, Blade is not for you. Please understand that. Blade believes that love is earned, not rushed. New people can be a little intimidating for him, and he needs someone willing to give him the time and patience to realize the world isnt so scary. But once you're in his circle, you'll discover the sweetest, most loyal companion you could ever ask for. His favorite place in the world is curled up beside his people, soaking up every bit of love and affection they have to offer. Whether its relaxing on the couch, binge-watching your favorite shows, or simply following you from room to room, Blade is happiest just being with his family. Don't let his cuddly side fool you, he has plenty of playful energy too!
He loves to run, explore, and stretch his legs, making the most of every adventure before happily settling in for a cozy cuddle session afterward.
Blade is house trained as long as he's kept on a consistent schedule, is comfortable in his crate, and walks beautifully on a leash. He truly enjoys getting out for daily strolls and spending time with his people. Blade would thrive either as your one-and-only best friend or with another smaller canine companion. Larger dogs can make him feel uneasy, so a calmer environment with smaller pups is where he shines. Blade isnt looking for someone to fall in love with him in the first five minutes. He's looking for someone who understands that the best relationships take time. If you're willing to be patient and let him open up at his own pace, you'll gain a devoted best friend whose love is deep, genuine, and absolutely worth the wait. Blade 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.
Lillie, a Bichon
Meet Lillie! Lillie is a 10-ish year old female Bichon and she weighs about 10 pounds. She arrived in rescue after being surrendered to a shelter and being very scared. She was also heartworm positive, but has been treated and is doing great! She has settled into foster care and is starting to thrive and is ready for a forever home. Her foster mom says: Lillie is a great little dog - very sweet, serene, calm and affectionate. As a mature gal, she is not interested in toys or playing but prefers to snuggle close to you. She is not comfortable on a leash (we are working on it), but she enjoys exploring the fenced yard. Her new family will need to continue training with positive reinforcement and a harness. She appears to be house trained on a schedule but will use piddle pads inside.
She rarely barks but when she does, it's very soft and only when she's trying to get your attention.She is crate trained but crating is not necessary, as she is not destructive. She ignores the cats, so a feline friendly household won't bother her. I believe Lillie would do best in a quiet, fenced yard home without young children where she can enjoy her golden years. However, no frail adults, as her small size may cause a fall. She is looking for someone to love and be loved in return. She will be the perfect addition to her forever home. Could you be the lucky one?Lillie is spayed, up to date on vaccines, on flea and heartworm medication microchipped and has had her teeth cleaned. She is fostered in the Flagler Beach area and her adoption donation is $275.
Flip, a Chihuahua mix
Meet Flip! Flip is a 5 month old male Chihuahua mix and he weighs about 7 pounds. He should stay under 15 pounds full grown, but we can't be sure of adult weight. Flip arrived in rescue as a tiny puppy with a family that could not properly care for him. He settled in to his foster home nicely and has been thriving. Flip will need a family up for all things puppy - including house training, leash training, continued socialization, and learning that flip flops are for feet, not food.
His foster mom says: Flip: small in size, big in personality! Flip is your classic chihuahua with a whole lot of charm packed into a tiny body. He’s got that signature “spicy” streak (especially when other puppies get a little too in his business), but don’t let that fool you—this little guy loves to play and have fun on his own terms. When he’s not busy being the boss of the toy pile (seriously, he LOVES his toys), Flip is all about the snuggles. His favorite place? Right next to his humans, soaking up all the love and attention he can get. Flip is the perfect mix of sass and sweetness—he’ll make you laugh, keep you on your toes, and then curl up beside you like your tiniest, most loyal shadow. Flip is neutered, up to date on vaccines, on flea and heart worm prevention and microchipped. He is fostered in the Orlando area and his adoption donation is $500.
Leilani, a Chihuahua mix
Meet Lelaini! Lelaini is a 1 year old female Chihuahua mix and she weighs about 8 pounds. She arrived in rescue after being surrendered and being very scared. She has settled into foster care and is starting to thrive and is ready for a forever home. Her foster mom says: "Lani" is the most affectionate dog! Her favorite thing to do is snuggle! She will do anything for affection. In fact, I trained her to sit in one day because she learned I wont pet her if shes jumping on me. That said, she wants to be on you 24/7, so Ive been working to get her to be more independent and to play and run outside without me right next to her. She's doing much better, but shes still a bit of a tripping hazard under my feet. She loves her toys, especially little cat toys. She had never been on a leash before, so we've been working on leash training. She's still a bit all over the place with that. She is not yet house trained, but we're working on that too.
She loves other little dogs who want to play with her, and even the ones who dont, shell endlessly try anyway.She does well with cats too, but keep her away from the litter. Iykyk. She's been pretty shy around other people on our walks and when someone comes into my house while I'm there. I had another foster watch her while I was out of town, and she was instantly their best friend, so she might be a one-person kind of gal. She hasn't been around kids. Leilani can get feisty over food, and Ive never seen a dog inhale their food so fast. I have to use a slow feeder. This is a must because she will choke herself. She has a lot of puppy energy, but will calm down instantly if she's on your lap, and by lap, I mean nuzzled up to your neck and staring lovingly into your eyes. Seriously. She's ridiculously adorable. Lelaini 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.
Steffie, a Poodle mix
Meet Steffie! Steffie is a 7 year old female Poodle mix and she weighs about 12 pounds. She arrived in rescue after coming from a puppy mill in a rural area during winter. She arrived heart worm positive, but has undergone treatment and is doing great! She has settled into foster care nicely and has been loving learning how to "dog". Her foster dad says she would like to introduce herself:
Hi, my name is Steffie. 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 have a laid back and “chill” personality. I love to nap, run around outside and play but I’m not a big fan of toys. I sleep well through the night and am house trained, but an occasional accident could happen. 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 would be ideal. I also need a fenced yard since the leash and I are not friends yet. So if you are looking for a gentle, loyal and loving best friend, you should definitely pick me! Steffie is spayed, up to date on vaccines, on flea and heart worm prevention, microchipped and has had her teeth cleaned! She is fostered in the Orlando area and her adoption donation is $375.
Onyx, a Pug mix
Meet Onyx! Onyx is a 6 month old male Pug mix and he weighs about 12 pounds. He should stay under 25 pounds full grown, but we can't be sure of adult weight. Onyx arrived in rescue as a tiny puppy and was very sick after being found abandoned and taken to animal services with two other pups. Onyx recovered from his upper respiratory infection and has been doing great! He settled in to his foster home nicely and has been thriving.Onyx will need a family up for all things puppy - including house training, leash training, continued socialization and learning that flip flops are for feet, not food. His foster mom says: Meet Onyx, your future tiny tornado of joy!
Onyx is looking for someone who truly understands pugs, because this little guy brings the full package: the zoomies, the antics, and that delightfully chaotic “manic pug energy” we all secretly love. He’s as sweet as they come, but don’t expect a couch potato. Onyx is always on the move! Whether he’s playing, exploring, or finding his next adventure, he keeps life fun and full of laughs. And when it comes to food, He does not mess around. Mealtime is serious business, and he approaches every bite with the focus and dedication of a true professional. If you’re ready for a pup who will keep you smiling, moving, and thoroughly entertained, Onyx is ready to be your partner in playful crime. Onyx is neutered, up to date on vaccines, on flea and heart worm prevention and microchipped. He is fostered in the Orlando area and his adoption donation is $550.
Birch, a Yorkie/Shih Tzu mix
Meet Birch! Birch is a 3 month old male Yorkie/Shih Yzu mix and he weighs about 5 pounds. He is still a growing puppy and we do expect him to get larger. Birch arrived in rescue after being from an accidental litter. He has been thriving in foster care, but is ready to find a family that is up for all of the puppy challenges, such as leash training, house training, continued socialization and learning what to chew and not chew. His foster mom says: Birch is a charming little Shih Tzu/Yorkie mix with a curious mind and enough terrier determination to keep life entertaining.
He loves exploring his surroundings, investigating every sound and toy he can find, and then happily settling in for snuggles once playtime is over. Birch is playful without losing his sweet side, making him a fun companion for someone ready for all the adventures of puppyhood. He’s currently learning the basics like housetraining and leash walking, so he’ll need patience, consistency and lots of encouragement as he grows. With his affectionate personality and spirited nature, Birch is sure to bring both laughter and love to his future home. Birch 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.
Leo, a Maltese mix
Meet Leo! Leo is a 1 year old male Maltese mix and he weighs about 8 pounds. Leo arrived in rescue after coming from a puppy mill in a rural area during winter. He has settled into foster care nicely and has been loving learning how to "dog". His foster mom says: Leo is very nervous around people, but he settled in quickly at his foster home. Once he has warmed up to someone, he wants to be right by them on the couch or in the bed. He dislikes being confined and fusses and barks in a crate or pen, but when he’s home alone and has the run of the house, he just snoozes on the couch until the people come back. Leo has joyful puppy energy! He regularly gets the zoomies, and he lives for going on (fast!) walks. He’s fanatical about toys and great at entertaining himself, but he’s still learning what is okay to chew on. He uses potty pads, and we’re working on transitioning that to the outdoors with lots of walks. He’ll go out as often as you offer.
His love of exploring means he’s ready to run every time a door is opened, and any yard must be secure. Unfortunately, he isn’t a good road trip buddy: he gets carsick. He’s scared of big dogs but likes calm small dogs and might enjoy a friend—but he does love being the one and only. Because he is skittish, and also a bit wild and mouthy when playing, he is most suited to a home with only older children. Leo is usually quiet but sometimes barks when he hears unfamiliar noises or gets excited. He has done well in a quiet apartment building, but not as well in a home with a ground-floor window where he could see (and comment on) everything that was happening outside. Leo would thrive in a patient home where he can explore the world at his own pace and continue to build his confidence. Leo 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.
