GIVING TUESDAY!!

TLDR: It's Giving Tuesday we want to save pups, please help, thanks.

It's #GivingTuesday!!!! Black Friday is over, Small Business Saturday was a smash, Cyber Monday is done, and now it’s a day celebrating the true spirit of the season - LOVE and GIVING! #GivingTuesday harnesses the potential of social media and the generosity of people around the world to bring about real change in their communities; it provides a platform for them to encourage the donation of time, resources and talents to address local challenges. It also brings together the collective power of a unique blend of partners— nonprofits, civic organizations, businesses and corporations, as well as families and individuals—to encourage and amplify small acts of kindness. Say, like saving a pup's life. Or helping a pup get the medical care they need for an injury, like a broken leg and paw. Or helping a senior pup find comfort in a loving foster home to live out whatever time they have left. Acts of kindness that truly and profoundly change and directly impact and save lives! If there’s one thing that’s a given, FLDR LOVES saving lives and we all KNOW how much MamaJan just loves “shopping” trips at animal shelters to load up with an SUV full of pups getting their freedom rides!!

FLDR is blessed to have an amazing supporter who loves saving pups as much as we do AND he also loves challenges - so he is challenging us to have our most successful Giving Tuesday yet - and he is willing to match our donations!!

Please, please consider making a donation this #GivingTuesday and lending a helping paw to some of our awesome pups. We would love to be able to go to animal control and "shop" and save some more pups, and get them homes for the holidays. YOU can help us do that, by donating right here on this post, or using any of the links on our website.

So click the donate button right here or any of the donation links and make a donation! EVERY donation helps!!! YOU can make a HUGE difference in the life of a pup ~ sometimes it’s literally ALL the difference. Please like, share on socials, send a telegram, make a call, spread the word, SAVE A LIFE. Thank you!!!

Douglas, a Shih Tzu mix

Please note: Douglas is not hypoallergenic and does shed.

Meet Douglas! Douglas is a 4 month old Shih Tzu/something really cute mix puppy. He currently weighs about 10 pounds, but is still quite the growing pup. While we expect his full grown weight to be under 25 pounds, we can not accurately predict that. If you need a pup guaranteed to be a specific size, he is not the pup for you. Douglas and his littermate arrived in rescue after they were surrendered their family could not properly care for them. They have since been raised in loving foster homes (they are not in the same foster home) and are thriving. Douglas is still very much a puppy and learning all of his life skills, so he will need a family that is up for that long term.That means house training, leash training, learning what to chew and not chew, continued socialization and positive reinforcement.His foster mom says: Douglas is a delightful puppy with a zest for life. Extremely curious, he is eager to explore. He's not just fun but he is sweet and ready to learn.With boundless energy and occasional goofiness, he would be great for a family. He is learning what and what not to chew and is doing well with his house training on a schedule. He is still a puppy though and there are accidents. Douglas is always ready for a cuddle and will brighten the life of his forever family. He is neutered, up to date on vaccines, on flea and heartworm prevention and microchipped. Douglas is fostered in the Orlando area and his adoption donation is $450.

FOSTERS

NEEDED!!

FLDR wants to save as many puppers as we possibly can and the only way to do this is by YOU joining our team!! We need fosters!! If you live in the Orlando area and would like to help save lives, we want you to join our pack! We are in need of foster homes willing to open their hearts and make a space on the couch for a rescued pup, usually just for a couple of weeks! We take care of the vetting, grooming, medications and you provide the love and snuggles! Please complete the "Adoption Application" and just put in the comments - "Want to Foster" and a Foster Coordinator will reach out to you right away!

We are also in need of people willing to do transports, usually from Winter Haven to St. Cloud or from north Orlando to St. Cloud a couple of times a month, during a weekday. Please email littledogrescue@gmail.com for more info on helping with Freedom Rides!

Welcome to Florida Little Dog Rescue Group!

Saving small dogs in big need—one life at a time.

Since day one, we've centered on the mission: rescuing overlooked, medically needy, or shelter-bound little dogs in Central Florida and giving them the loving futures they deserve. We’re a 100% volunteer-powered rescue caring for pups in foster homes—never shelters—and every dollar goes directly toward saving another life.

Save a Dog on Death Row!
They need YOUR help right now!!

Please help us save dogs on Death Row at local Animal Controls. These are dogs that can't be adopted out directly from Animal Control, mainly for medical reasons. When they can't be adopted, they need a rescue to save them when their time runs out. These pups desperately need our help, we are their last hope!

Florida Little Dog Rescue Group rescues dogs from all over the state of Florida, but our main focus is the Central Florida area. Our volunteers live anywhere from Tallahassee to Tampa, but all of our dogs are fostered in the Orlando area. We are 100% volunteer-based, which means no overhead or salary costs. Your donation is used directly for dog care. We do not receive government funds. We are entirely supported by charitable donations.

Why We Do What We Do

No shelter, just foster homes—so every dog gets the love and evaluation they deserve.
Over 5,500 lives changed across 16 years of rescue work.
A fully volunteer run organization—every gift you give goes straight to care.
Not a shelter—visits happen by application only to ensure safety and respect for foster families and pets.

Please note, we are not a shelter. We do not have a kennel or facility that you can visit and see all the dogs. Each dog is fostered in an individual home. We do rescue out of our private homes and in our spare time. So, you cannot come visit our dogs until you have gone through the application and interview process and we have contacted you about scheduling a visit. We do not have set "hours" and we answer all calls and emails as quickly as we can!
