Young · Female · Dachshund / Mixed (long coat) · 17 mi from Hialeah










1 year old 13 pound dachshund mix from Puerto Rico
Her perfect home would be one where she had someone who loves to get kisses and loves to scratch a belly.
Klara is a playful girl and would do well with another playful dog or someone who could play with her expend some energy.
She would love to be in a home where people are home most of the time. She is not a fan of being left alone, but is SO much better. She has discovered lick mats, doggie puzzles, has a safe crate of her own and settles herself down pretty quickly. We are very proud of the progress she has made.

Klara is a snuggly and sweet girl and we know that the right family is out there for her.
19. Hunter
Young (1 year 6 months) · Male · German Shepherd Dog · 18 mi from Hialeah





Another stray who appears to have been tossed out onto the streets of Miami, Hunter was so relieved to be found that he jumped right into his finder's car.
Hunter is a young dog, very puppy-like in both his energy and personality, although we believe he is around 1.5 years old. He's eager, affectionate, and has so much potential to become an incredible companion.
Because of his youthful enthusiasm, Hunter would do best in a home with a securely fenced yard and someone committed to continuing his training. With guidance, structure, and love, we know he will grow into the amazing dog he's meant to be.
Read more about Hunter
Hunter is currently located in boarding, but we would love to find him a local foster home where he can decompress, learn, and show everyone just how special he is.
If you're interested in fostering or adopting Hunter, please reach out. He deserves a second chance at the happy life he's been waiting for.

20. Memo
Senior · Male · Dachshund / Chihuahua / Mixed (short coat) · 17 mi from Hialeah







10 year old 5.5 pound chihuahua
He has no teeth.
Memo came to us from Puerto Rico
He’s a snuggly boy who likes to be held like a baby
His lack of teeth doesn’t get in the way of his eating, he just needs soft food or soaked kibble.
He is good with all people.
He is good with other dogs, he does have some stereotypical Chihuahua traits, growls when other dogs come near his favorite bed for example, but he has no teeth and it’s just a little warning, nothing of concern.
He would be fine with other dogs or as an only dog.
He likes soft beds, head scratches, exploring outside and laying in the sun.

Adopting a dog in Hialeah
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.
