Meet Andy – Your Low-Key, Big-Headed Best Friend Andy is a lovable, goofy 6-year-old English Bulldog with a giant head and an even bigger heart. Weighing in at 50 pounds of pure squish, Andy is looking for a calm, adult-only, pet-free home where he can soak up all the love and attention for himself. He’s house- and crate-trained, but he does best with frequent potty breaks—so a family with a flexible schedule would be a great fit. Andy is prone to UTIs, but with prescription food and regular care, he stays healthy and happy. This cuddlebug thinks he’s a lap dog and loves being close to his people—whether it’s snuggling in bed, watching TV, or turning on the charm for some extra treats. He enjoys chewing on toys and bones, and he’s always up for a gentle game of fetch. Bonus: he adores his naps and doesn’t mind serenading you with some adorable bulldog snoring. If you're looking for a low-energy companion who will keep you laughing, loving, and maybe wiping up a little drool, Andy is your guy! Apply to adopt him at www.AbandonedPetRescue.org.

Hello, I'm Sampson. It's a delight to make your acquaintance. I hold the record for being the longest resident dog at Abandoned Pet Rescue. Spending almost six years in a shelter is quite a long time for a majestic 10 1/2-year-old German Shepherd like me. When I first arrived, I became protective of my kennel, and it takes me a while to trust new human friends. However, I have formed strong bonds with a few staff members and volunteers over the years who enjoy walking, training, and playing with me. I am in need of an experienced adopter who understands my quirks and protective, loyal nature, someone comfortable with my 100-pound size (that's a lot of charm!). I am seeking a soulmate in the South Florida area willing to invest time in getting to know me at the shelter before I transition to a new home. The shelter staff will demonstrate my leash-walking skills (I am even trained to wear a muzzle) and how quickly I pick up new tricks like speak, paw, and sit. I enjoy car rides and have recently discovered the delight of a Starbucks Puppuccino. My dream is to have a peaceful, calm home with a fenced yard and an abundance of squeaky toys (my favorite!). I am looking for a home without cats or kids, but I do enjoy the companionship of other dogs with a proper introduction. If you are interested in knowing more about me, please complete an adoption application at abandonedpetrescue.org. Kindly spread the word about me so I can find my perfect forever home.

Hello there, I'm Scraggles, the tennis ball fetch champion of the world! My favorite stunt is a backflip while catching the ball midair and hitting a perfect landing.
