About Peter Pan

Looking for a dog who’s part social butterfly, part lovable weirdo? Meet Peter Pan, the 8-year-old, 55lb pup who does jazz hands when he sees other dogs (yes, actual jazz hands).

Peter has been charming humans for over three years at the shelter. He’s friendly and social, but it’s the little quirks in how he does everything that make him unforgettable.

Rescued in 2022 from an overcrowded shelter where he was skin-and-bones and on the euthanasia list, he’s now thriving, starring on his own beer label at Gulf Stream Brewery, and perfecting his belly rub negotiation skills.

His hobbies? Sunbathing like a total diva, rolling in the grass like he’s auditioning for a rom-com, and befriending everyone at the local bar. He’s dog-friendly when properly introduced to other dogs, but not all dogs enjoy his enthusiastic roughhousing. He is very calm in his kennel and well-behaved and he never barks. Pet Pan’s underbite smile could win its own award, but he just needs to win over someone’s heart!

Abandoned Pet Rescue is a no-kill animal shelter in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
