Victoria and Beckham are two bonded Chihuahua mixes who were given up as the result of a nasty divorce. Instead of thinking of the dogs their dads only thought of themselves and could not 'unload' these two fast enough. Confused and abandoned they rely on each other for security and comfort. They would do best in a home together without other animals. Once they find the right home and family we are certain they will settle down and learn loving being dogs again. Come in to meet them Wed - Mon from 12-5pm.

Bessie was found as a stray. She was very ill with an enlarged spleen but has fully recovered from that. She does still have medical issues, she has been diagnosed with IBD and is still getting diagnostic testing done to fully diagnose her issues. She is on a special diet and meds and will need to be on them for the rest of her life. Bessie is a sweet girl. She loves to cuddle and snuggle with blankets & loves attention from people of all ages. She is a real sweetheart but is sad without a home of her own. She hopes that someone will come & meet her & take a chance on giving her a forever, loving home. You can see by looking at her that she has not had an ideal life but you would never know it by her nature. Not good with dogs or cats.

Blackie is an owner surrender, not because of anything she did but because her owner was moving and could not find a place that would take dogs. She is a friendly girl but seems to be a little dog selective. Come meet Blackie Weds-Mon 12-5pm.

Meet Brody, he was found as a stray in the Miami area wandering around a college campus. He is young, friendly, full of energy and seems to get along with dogs and cats, no young children. He is heartworm positive and is currently receiving treatment. Brody is not happy here at our shelter, he is not use to being locked in a kennel, we think he may of possibly been a yard dog. He barks a lot and seems a little intimidating but he’s just saying “Hey, get me out of here!” Once out of his kennel he’s a big goof ball and jumps around a bit but after getting all his energy out he calms down. We prefer Brody go to a home with a big back yard and kids over ten years old. Come meet Brody Weds-Mon 12-5pm

Cooper was found in Ft Lauderdale. He seems to be "hand shy" & probably was abused. He needs a very experienced dog owner. He does well on leash/harness. Cooper has a lot of energy & loves to jog. Cooper does need training. He needs a strong-willed but loving parent. You would have to be willing to spend weeks/months getting to know Cooper, working with him at the shelter, gaining his trust & love but letting him know he can accept your love. He needs to feel safe & secure. Cooper needs a home with adults only and be the only animal because he is a very "alpha" male dog.

Marlin is obedient and lovable. Marlin is a big boy - tall and about 60 pounds but with a very nice disposition. If you want a big lovable guy who loves to please, if you have a fenced in yard... Marlin is your guy! Don't judge Marlin in his run; he can be protective of his run and certain people he becomes attached to. But take him outside of his run & he is a wonderful dog! Since he is a big strong boy, Marlin would do best with an experienced large dog owner. He was adopted before but returned because he was guarding his owners and did not like strangers coming into the home. He would do best in a home that is nice and quiet and does not have a lot of visitors. Please come in & meet Marlin...You'll be glad you did!

WILL NEED EXPERIENCED DOG OWNER, WILL REQUIRE MULTIPLE VISITS BEFORE BEING ADOPTED. Miracle was found as a stray covered in matted fur and feral, there is no telling how long he was on the streets. We gave him a grooming and within a few weeks he started coming out of his shell and felt more comfortable around humans. Hes still very selective with who he trusts and if you are interested in Miracle we ask that you come in multiple times so he gets to know you, we also prefer he go with someone who has experience with shy fearful dogs. He is dog selective, seems ok with cats, no children.

Odin is a very sweet dog. He has 1 eye, but does just fine. Loves to give kisses. Loves dog walks. Odin seems to know commands and may be potty trained in a home. Odin's owners were evicted and he was left behind to fend for himself. In spite of how he was treated he still loves people. Odin needs to be the only dog, he is very dog selective, doesn't like cats and would do best in a home with no young children due to his strength. Older children over 15 would do fine as he could knock down smaller children not even realizing his strength. Odin's birth date is 2/6/13.

Meet Princess, shes an owner surrender who has had a traumatic past in her already short life. She is a very sweet girl but very nervous and she is scared of men.
