He is still patiently waiting for his turn. Because of his playful energy, he would likely do best in a home with children 10 years or older.

4. Harrison Yorkie On Wheels

Adult · Male · Yorkshire Terrier Yorkie · 37 mi from Ocean Breeze

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.

This is Get A Life Pet Rescue, Dolly. And it is so nice to have you rehab here where you belong.When little Dolly came to us, life had not been kind to her. She arrived with a severe eye injury, far too underweight, and far too malnourished for the dental work and spay she so desperately needed. But she came to us, and that changed everything. We provided the surgery to remove her injured eye and get her comfortable, and from that moment on, this tiny five-pound Powder Puff began the most important comeback of her life.You're lookin' swell, Dolly.

She is becoming more interactive, more affectionate, and more herself with every passing week in her foster home. When she sees her foster parents reaching for her treats, this girl does not just sit politely. She dances. She pushes gently on your leg with all five pounds of her enthusiasm, letting you know in no uncertain terms that she is here, she is happy, and she would very much like that snack now.Dolly is a Chinese Crested Powder Puff, one of the most gloriously unique and tenderhearted breeds you will ever have the privilege of knowing. Soft, cloud-like fur like the popular Maltese breed we tagged her with for her to be more visible in searches. She deeply bonds to her foodie people. Dolly is the kind of dog who fills a room simply by being in it. She is working her way to a healthy seven pounds, and once she reaches that milestone, she will be ready for her spay, her dental care, and the forever home that has been waiting for her all along.So find her an empty lap, fellas. Dolly'll never go away again.We are looking for someone with a quiet, loving home who understands that this little girl has already been through enough, and who is ready to give her all the warmth, gentleness, and treat-fueled dance parties she deserves for the rest of her days.Dolly did not just survive her story.

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.

I'm a sweet, well trained girl looking for my forever family. My story is I tried out to be a service dog. I gave it my all I know all of my basic commands and a lot of advanced commands. I do well when accompanying you on errands I'm a little shy when it comes to meeting new people so my Trainer didn't think that I would be very happy working as a service dog. I get along great with other dogs. I'm told I'm the most popular girl at doggy daycare because I play well with all size dogs I know how to keep the fun going, but I also know how to get everybody to take a little breaks.

Read more about Rosie

Hi, I'm a sweet little low-riding cutie, about 4 years old, and I'm ready to start the next chapter of my life.
I've already been through so much. I recently raised six beautiful puppies, and now that they're growing up, it's finally my turn to find a family of my very own.
I'm already trained, patient, and have wonderful manners. I get along great with other dogs and love being around people, making me a perfect addition to almost any family.
My favorite things are the simple ones—going for walks, riding in the car with the windows cracked, curling up for a cozy nap, or just hanging out by your side while you go about your day. I'm happiest just being with the people I love.
All I'm looking for now is a forever home where I'll be loved as much as I've loved everyone else. If you're looking for a loyal companion with a gentle heart and so much love to give, I might just be the missing piece of your family.
Could that family be yours? ❤️

I love to sleep in the big bed if you help me up there.

Adopting a dog in Ocean Breeze

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.
