They where found terrified in a drainage ditch. They looked to never had been around humans before. There rescuer/foster home in GA was a "farm" style home where they are starting to trust humans again. Unfortunally there foster up in GA passed away and they needed to travel down to florida to find there furever home with us. This is what there foster mom has to say about them: Onion is a sweet, loving, and happy boy with just the right amount of mischief mixed in. Onion experienced trauma before being rescued and he is still recovering from the effects. He will need a patient owner who will continue to work with him on trusting people. Onion has such a fun personality but will need time to warm up to his adopter before he shows it off. Onion truly is a companion dog. Onion is able to emotionally bond with his person. He sticks really close when his person is upset or sick. He also loves to snuggle with his person. He loves to sleep with his person at night, and even enjoys sharing your blanket and pillow too! Onion is potty, crate, and leash trained. He loves all types of foods, but mainly yours! He even likes fruits and vegetables. Onion’s most favorite past times are walks and playing in the backyard. He is a master at digging holes and rolling around in the dirt and sand. He is very proud of his work and loves showing it off! He loves chasing after frisbees and balls but has no desire to retrieve them. He loves checking out all the new smells on his walks. He would make an excellent running partner because he is always wanting to move fast on walks. He also loves running around with his person in the backyard. He enjoys Kongs, rope toys, and chew toys. We are working on car rides and going to the pet store. He is still fearful of these activities but with each exposure he gets more comfortable with it. Onion is fearful of strangers. Onion isn’t always comfortable around men, but he can co-exist with them. The longer he is around them, the more comfortable he becomes. He does well with kids (he’s never been around children under the age of 5). He's fine around cats. He is very curious about them but doesn’t pursue them. Onion would do best in a home that has another dog who can “show him the ropes” and be his playmate. Onion needs a home with a fenced backyard. There breeds are truely unknown but our best guess looks like shepherd/lab mix?

Posted Breed: German Shepherd Dog / Labrador Retriever (short coat). Adoption Fee: $75.00. Online Adoption Application Garlic and his brother Onion where rescued in rural georgia. They where found terrified in a drainage ditch. They looked to never had been around humans before. There rescuer/foster home in GA was a "farm" style home where they are starting to trust humans again. Unfortunally there foster up in GA passed away and they needed to travel down to florida to find there furever home with us. This is what there foster/dog trained Reather has to say about him: Garlic has been in a board and train program with his foster dad for 1 month. He has warmed up in the past month but of course he is still a fearful guy and that can take months or longer for him to fully trust someone. He would do best in a single humanhome with 1 or 2 friendly dogs as you dont really want too much excitement going on around him. He loves to play with dogs. He seems house trained. I have been letting him sleep with me to build the bond but he does fine in a crate as well. At his last foster, he only bonded with mom but not the husband or kids so I think it was just alot for him and it's probably not a good idea to have him with another fearful dog like his brother oinion. When in public, he will stay with me as his crutch but at home he only comes for bed, treats, or when he sees a few other dogs wanting my attention. If adopted in the winter park/casselberry his Current foster/trainer will visit him weekly to continue training and get him settled into his forever home There breeds are truely unknown but our best guess looks like shepherd/Visula/lab mix?

Posted Breed: American Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: $250.00. Online Adoption Application Tigger and his brother Piglet were found abandoned at a pool in an apartment complex. A good Samaritan found them and brought them to our rescue. Tigger is a spunky pup with a BIG personality!!! He is high-energy and needs lots of time to run and play. He gets nervous around big dogs at first and does better with slow (one on one) introductions. Once he trusts his new doggo friend he will be friends for life. He was a little nippy at first but now he seldom nips, even while playing. Tigger is very food and praise motivated and would do well with training. He is potty/crate trained and has very few accidents inside. He loves to go for walks and car rides. His favorite games to play are tug-of-war and fetch. At the end of a long day he likes to snuggle in his humans lap and fall asleep. Tigger gets along with children but he gets very excited and will jump up. He does need to be supervised with toddlers/small children because he just gets so excited and doesn't realize his own strength. He is also good with kitties but will play a little rough with them if they play with him. He just ignores the kitties that do not want to play with him.
