🚨🚨🚨 EMERGENCY FOSTER NEEDED FOR SMOKY - STARTING ASAP 🚨🚨🚨

Poor Smoky needs to move again, at no fault of his own. He is a very young puppy in need of someone that is home often or can drop in every few hours if he’s left unattended. He was found locked in a crate so he has some crate anxiety he needs help with. He gets along great with other dogs and cats. He’s potty trained and is working on leash training. He has a tonnnnn of energy so either an active home or a fenced in yard would be best for him.

We need someone for him ASAP or else he’s going to have to go to boarding 😭😭 please help! Text 9547897850 if you can take him in. We will supply everything!

Cookie update!
I wish I had more of an exciting one, almost 1 month with her and she still has no interest in human interaction. I’d love for her to find a foster who she’s around 24/7 I do think she’d thrive that way. No outside time yet, she doesn’t leave the crate unless everyone is asleep or not home. She does have her moments of joy at night when she’s rolling around the toys. I have yet to catch her playing but I’m hopeful❤️ Mama Mae goes in her room every morning to walk around and then leaves, Cookie shows no interest but I try to let her see that it’s ok and humans are good. Last night she didn’t have her tail tucked so that was exciting.

Sweet Lake has warmed the hearts of so many showing how strong and resilient she is! Last week we were alerted that a kitten was “dying” from one of our fosters neighbors. We told them to go surrender to an er, she didn’t. We gave other options in the am and she denied medical care. We asked for more details and were told the dog attacked the cat they think its neck is broken🤦🏼‍♀️ and then shortly after told us the kid closed the cat in the door. We however found no punctures on the kitten and we truly believe her injury is from negligence and trauma from possible child. Who knows what truly happened but all we know is we are so happy she’s with us. A tech has been watching her and expressing her multiple times a day. Our next goal is an MRI while she does crate rest. Again all this could have been avoided if an adult was responsible and spayed her cat. We want to make a point to tell everyone again! We will help you spay and neuter strays/ your pet if you can’t afford it! We are exhausted with 20+ inquires everyday asking us to take kittens and moms in. There simply no room, step up and start trapping, we have traps and will cover the cost at our clinic. NO EXCUSES stop the suffering of these kitties and their future generations.

🆘🆘 Urgent Foster Needed 🆘🆘

Foster or other rescue help needed for Bella. She is 6.5 years old and is not spayed, chipped, or vaccinated.

See more info about Bella below, and please message us if you can help!
🐾

• According to the owners granddaughter, who is unable to take the dog due to her living situation, the dog has a skin condition and needs to be bathed with a “special shampoo”.
• Bella is initially excited when she is put on a collar and leash, but she gets accommodated to it eventually
• Bella was kept indoors with the elderly lady for long periods of time, and therefore would urinate and defecate on the floor but when she is given ample opportunity to go outdoors, she stops this behavior.
• The granddaughter said that she would “jump the fence into the neighbors yard in order to play with the neighbor’s two female dogs.” When the neighbor told Bella to go back to her own yard, she would do so. We just don’t know how she would be around male dogs or around cats.
• The granddaughter says that she would chase cats out of the yard, but she never injured them.
• The granddaughter said that Bella is fine around children. However, Bella does not like anyone getting too close to her food bowl when she is eating.

MEET SADIE! ♥️

📍Largo, FL.
Staffy
Approx 2 years
62lbs
Spayed, chipped, vaccinated

Adoptions are open to the entire state of FL☀️🌴

If you guys don’t remember, Sadie was trapped at the beginning of the month. She was caught after living outside for the past 8 months. But Sadie wasn’t always homeless.. she once had a family, a yard to run around in, and children to play with. We’re not sure if she was dumped by her family or if she got out and they didn’t care enough to look for her, but either way they failed her. BIG TIME.

Sadie is one of our dogs that would be totally content being the only dog in the home. She’s been in 2 foster homes with other dogs and could care less about them. What she wants more than anything is to just be your shadow and have human interaction. She is the definition of a Velcro dog! She would do best as an only dog or in a home with another chill/mellow dog. She will probably be stressed out in a home with hyper dogs.

She is crate trained, potty trained, and walks well on the leash! She does get a little car sick after 20-30 minutes of riding. She is fully vetted, microchipped, vaccinated, etc.

If you’re interested in meeting Sadie, text (954) 789-7850 to start the adoption process!
