I am being rehomed because both my parents are first responders and they want me to have more attention than what I get now. They're hoping I have a big house and a fenced yard to play in. I am housebroken and crate trained. I don't have to be crated when they're not home. I live with two other dogs that are much older. I'm great with kids. I'm a little scared of cats.

25. Harrison Yorkie On Wheels
All adoptions include a home visit. You must live in Broward or Palm Beach County.HarrisonYorkshire Terrier · Almost 8 Years Old · 7 lbs There are dogs that make you rethink everything you thought you knew about limitations. Harrison is one of them.This seven-pound Yorkshire Terrier moves through life with a joy so contagious it stops people in their tracks. He is paralyzed in his lower legs, and he has absolutely no interest in letting that define him. Strap him into his wheelchair and watch him bounce around with an enthusiasm that makes you wonder why you ever complained about anything. When he is out of his wheels, his padded drag bag keeps his legs protected so he can maneuver comfortably and confidently on his own terms.
Read more about Harrison Yorkie On Wheels
Harrison does not need your sympathy. He needs your company, a good throw of his favorite toy, and a warm spot to cuddle when the fetch session is over.He is playful, loving, hypoallergenic, and deeply social with people. Take him out into the world, and he greets it like a dog who knows exactly how good life is. He has earned that perspective.Harrison does have a heart murmur and is managed comfortably on cardiac medication, which Get A Life Pet Rescue will cover for life. He also needs his bladder expressed every six hours during waking hours, a gentle, simple technique involving light pressure on each side of the bladder to release urine. Because Harrison does not drink water through the night, this is not needed after he settles in for the evening, making nighttime completely manageable for any household. We will make sure every adopter and their network is fully trained and confident in this before Harrison goes to his devoted home. And that word, network, is the heart of what Harrison needs most.His ideal adopter is someone who loves him fiercely and also comes prepared with a circle of trusted, trained people around them. Dog sitters, neighbors, family members, close friends, anyone who can step in on a long day away from home or during travel to provide his care on schedule. This does not need to be complicated or large. It simply needs to exist. Get A Life Pet Rescue will provide full hands-on training for everyone in that circle, and we will do our best to serve as a backup sitter ourselves when we are available.In return for that village, Harrison will give every single person in it something they did not expect. He will show up to every interaction with his whole heart, fetch game ready, cuddle mode fully operational, and that unmistakable Yorkie spark that reminds you that the size of a life has nothing to do with the size of the body living it.Harrison is not a dog who needs to be saved. He has already saved himself. He is simply waiting for the right people to recognize what an extraordinary privilege it is to be chosen by him.Get A Life Pet Rescue will cover Harrison's cardiac medication and basic veterinary care at our vet in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, for life. Check his VIDEO PLAYLIST. Please Like & Follow his FaceBook Page. If you are interested, please fill out the adoption application. For additional information regarding our adoption process, please check our FAQ's Page. WWW.GETALIFEPETRESCUE.COM This dog's adoption fee is $100 to go towards their vetting (vaccines, spay/neuter, heartworm/Ehrlichia/Lyme test, fecal test, pre-op blood work, dental cleaning, and microchip, as well as grooming if needed). If you are interested, please fill out the adoption application. For additional information regarding our adoption process, please check our FAQ's Page. All dogs in the care of Get a Life Pet Rescue live in loving foster homes while waiting for their perfect match. They are never kept in cages or crates unless there is a medical reason, and they are treated as family pets throughout their time with us. Our rescues are fed premium brand holistic wet food diets along with supplements and vitamins tailored to each dog's individual needs. Every dog in our care receives complete quality v

Please understand that our Adoption Counselors are all volunteers who perform this service in addition to their regular jobs. We appreciate your patience.

Adopting a dog in Delray Beach
Most rescues ask you to fill in an application, meet the dog, and pay an adoption fee that usually covers spaying or neutering, vaccinations and a microchip. Many are foster-based, so you'll often meet your dog in a volunteer's home rather than a shelter.
Senior dogs are often the calmest companions and the slowest to find homes. If you'd like a settled, affectionate dog, ask the rescues about their older residents.
Puppies go quickly, so if you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon. Ask how big they're expected to grow, and plan for plenty of house-training and training in the first few months.
