We make every effort to keep this information up-to-date. However, we are unable to guarantee specific cats and dogs shown on this online list will still be available when you come to the animal shelter. You are welcome to call us to confirm the pet is still here at our animal shelter before you come visit us.
Imagine how stressful and noisy your home would be if complete strangers were walking in your door every few minutes, looking in each room of your house, then leaving. Your own dogs, whether happy about it or upset, would be mentally exhausted after such a stressful day.
Welcome to our new shelter policy, designed to help the dogs in our care feel calm and safe until their forever parents come for them.
You are welcome to visit us during open hours, but while our dogs enjoy stress free naps, socialization time, and quiet play, we will ask that you fill out an application in our lobby, if you haven’t completed one online, so we can help match you with just the right pet. We will then bring dogs out to you while you relax and enjoy the process.

My name is Corduroy and I am a 4-year-old, 22lb, male Miniature Australian Shepherd blend. I am feral and was on my own for a very long time, meaning that you will never make me a ânormalâ dog and we will not bond like most dog/humans do. Once I learn to trust you, I will take treats from you, but that is all. I am not good with children as they frighten me. I LOVE playing with other dogs as that is my very favorite thing in the world! I am NOT house trained. I would like a home that has a very secure yard because if I get loose - you wonât be able to catch me. I would also need a covered patio or similar area where I can come in from the elements and feel safe. I would also love it if I had another playful dog with me too.
I am a Forever Hope reduced-fee pet. Read more about Forever Hope pets here: https://theanimalleague.org/we-have-forever-hope/

I am a big, handsome goofball who just wants to play! I think I am still a puppy and I will need firm but kind training, so you must have time to work with me.

Beautiful is a Siamese cat and approximately 8 years old. She is best suited in a home with no children or other pets. She requires an adjustment period of at least a month. She is litter box trained and causes no problems. Iâve had her for 6 months but I cannot integrate her with my elder cat and dogs. She has always been an indoor cat but enjoys the patio.
Please contact Heather at 352-242-8977. A $50 rehoming fee applies.
Juno has extreme anxiety around any loud noises or new visitors to the point of shaking. I don't think a home with children would good for her as she's very afraid of loud noises, but I don't have children of my own. Juno is EXTREMELY submissive; My oldest was a female and they were able to function together without issues. She was prescribed anti-anxiety medication as well for her shaking. Juno does walk well on a leash and is housetrained, but not crate trained.
I have a cat as well, as while I would say she is fine with cats, I would not recommend chicks or small livestock because she "plays" too aggressively,
Juno was adopted to me under the stipulation that she has to have another dog in the home. My oldest dog is no longer with me, and Juno cannot function without another dog. She has always had much more interest in another dog than a human (Almost 90/10 split to wanting to be with my oldest as opposed to me).
Juno needs to go to a quiet home with at least one other dog, she CANNOT be in an only dog home. A $50 rehoming fee applies.
Please contact Bradley at 407-405-8589 or bbecher@gmail.com

Hello, my name is Violet. Iâm about 6 1/2 years old, spayed, have long-hair, and am one of the sweetest little (only about 6-7 pounds) kitties youâll ever meet. My foster Mommy rescued me from living in a horse barn (all alone) after being left behind by a property seller. (Which is where I lost the fur on my nose. I will push into places with my nose to hide when Iâm scared.) Iâm not a big fan of any animal who wants to chase me, but absolutely LOVE kitty toy play time, dried catnip, and hanging out in an in-home / screened porch setting. Iâm shy and donât like loud sudden noises but will warm up to true kitty lovers. My foster Mommy has 6 cats of her own and some of them donât get along with me, so she wants me to have my own family; perhaps best in a quiet household as an only kitty, or as an older personâs companion. My foster Mommy also has two dogs, but they donât bother or chase me â so Iâm OK with them. My vet-care and shots are caught up till August 7, 2020 (and Iâm on flea / heartworm prevention). A Re-homing fee of $50.00 applies to assure my best furever home.
Please call / text my foster Mommy at 407-810-5503 (between 9AM and 7PM ) or email : mobilenotary2011@yahoo.com for more information. Iâll be purring for you!

An approved application is required before taking any pet home. This includes us contacting 3 of your references and your veterinarian (if you currently have pets). Each pet is unique! We adopt pets based on a “best match” approach to ensure the adopter’s lifestyle and circumstances are suitable for the breed of choice. This means we may recommend alternate pets to you for consideration. We do this for the safety and long-term well-being of our adoptables. To expedite the adoption process, you may wish to complete an adoption application online prior to visiting the adoption center.
