1. Big Al
Meet Big Al!
The 65-Pound Best Friend You Didn't Know You Needed!
Born August 12, 2020, Al is a 6-year-old Standard Poodle with a BIG heart of gold. And we mean BIG! This handsome guy is currently 65 pounds of lean poodle perfection and is working on putting on a little weight.
Al has never met a stranger. In fact, we're not entirely sure he understands the concept of personal space.
Everyone is his friend. EVERYONE.
The dog snarling at him from across the room? Friend!
The cat who's hissed at him 20 times and finally resorted to throwing paws? Still a friend!
The squirrel across the road? BEST FRIEND MATERIAL!
Read more about Big Al
Al is socially blind and unintentionally pushy. He takes friendship VERY seriously and believes that if he looks at you, you are now personally responsible for being his buddy until someone else comes along. Pets, attention, and affection are always on his agenda! Be prepared, he’s a BIG leaner
A little more about Al:
Dog friendly, including small dogs
Cat friendly
Kid friendly
Potty trained
Kennel trained
Ball enthusiast…when the spirit moves him
Gentle with his toys (more of a casual nibbler than a destroyer)
Low-energy overall and an oversized lapdog at heart
Loves attention and affection
Currently does great with professional grooming
Bed HOG
Al does have a few quirks and things his future family should know:
He's a bit of a puller on walks and will need a head halter or martingale collar while you continue working on that
He's an alert barker, especially at loud noises or people passing his gate. He'd really like them to come over and pet him, obviously!
Counter surfing is one of his hobbies. Keep those snacks out of reach!
He may occasionally bounce around and attempt to initiate a game of tag with a squirrel. The squirrel is generally not interested.
Let's talk Poodle maintenance!
Al is a Standard Poodle, and that gorgeous coat doesn't maintain itself. His hair grows FAST, and he will need professional grooming approximately every month to keep his coat clean, healthy, and mat-free, along with regular nail care.
He currently does wonderfully with professional grooming, so haircuts and nail trims aren't an issue for him. However, his future family needs to be prepared to either learn to groom him at home or budget approximately $80–$200 per month for professional grooming.
If you're looking for a sweet, goofy, affectionate companion who believes everyone he meets should immediately become part of his social circle, Al might just be your guy!

He’s embracing life one adventure at a time and showing more of his personality every day.

Vet care: Up-to-date on vaccines, testing, and neutered, he’s 32lbs

4. FiFi
THERE’S NO FALSE ADVERTISING WITH FIFI!
She’s every bit as sweet, affectionate, and fun as she looks!
At just 2 years old and 12 lbs, FiFi is a little white creampuff of pure sweetness. She’s crate trained, fully housebroken, and about as easy to love as they come!
FiFi adores people AND other dogs, and she'd really love a home with other young, playful pups to run around the yard with, goof off in the house, and generally make life more fun.
Read more about FiFi
When it comes to her people, FiFi is a professional snuggler. She wants to be close, soak up all the affection she can get, and will absolutely let you know if she thinks you’re falling short on your cuddle duties.
She sleeps happily in her crate at night, but if you’re willing to share your bed, she’d be DELIGHTED to moonlight as your personal body warmer!
FiFi loves her walks and is excellent on a leash. She does have an adventurous side, though, so if she’s going to enjoy off-leash time in the yard, a securely fenced yard is a must. This little explorer likes to see what’s out there!
Honestly, what’s not to love?

5. Percy
Hi, I’m Percy! I’m proof that you can be ridiculously adorable and still make your humans question every life decision that led them to you.
Think training a Yorkie mix means you’re getting a cute little purse dog? HAHAHAHA. Nope! Have you seen The Hunger Games? More like that!
May the odds be ever in your favor.
I’m 11 pounds, 2 years old, possibly a Yorkie mix or terrier mix, and I come equipped with BIG energy, BIG personality, radar-dish ears, and ABSOLUTELY ZERO CHILL (well unless I’m the center of your love and attention!).
The rescue is genuinely worried I’ll never get adopted because I’m such a knucklehead. (Honestly?! Yup - Fair!)
Read more about Percy
I love people, toys, playtime, walkies, attention, and cuddles. I really am the sweetest boy!
But do I have manners? HIGHLY QUESTIONABLE .
I’m working on my leash skills, potty training, and general understanding of how to function in polite society. Think less purse accessory, more tiny chaos agent with absolutely no impulse control.
I need a family with consistency, commitment to training, a great sense of humor, and the patience of 47 saints. I’m a work in progress. A VERY cute, occasionally infuriating work in progress.
But underneath all that chaos is a genuinely sweet boy who wants to love his people with his whole heart.
PERCY IS LOOKING FOR:
A family ready for BIG personality
Continued potty training and leash-manners boot camp
Lots of love, patience, playtime, and cuddles
Someone who understands that CUTE DOES NOT MEAN EASY!
Come for the ears. Stay because you’ve fallen in love with the little shit.
Think you can handle Percy? The rescue has concerns. The odds are questionable. But someone out there is brave enough for this tribute!

6. Dolly
Meet Dolly - the little girl with the biggest heart!
Sometimes a dog comes along who just seems to appreciate everything life has to offer. Maybe it’s because Dolly was rescued from such sad and lonely beginnings… or maybe it’s simply who she was born to be. But that’s our sweet Dolly. ❤️
Dolly is a
1½ yr old, 34 lb
"pocket pittie." She's the perfect compact size, with a whole lot of love and playful energy packed inside. She absolutely LOVES other dogs and has so much fun playing with her four-legged friends. And as far as Dolly is concerned, everyone she meets - two-legged or four-legged - is simply a friend she hasn’t gotten to know yet.
Read more about Dolly
.
She’s also discovering just how big and wonderful the world can be. New places? She’s excited. Parks? She’s in! Water? Absolutely! ✨ Everything is an adventure to Dolly, and watching her experience these things for the first time is pretty special. She’s learning, growing, and becoming the wonderful little companion she was meant to be.
Dolly is already crate trained and leash trained, and she’ll head to the door to let you know when she needs to go potty. She’s off to a wonderful start - and now she’s looking for the family who will help her keep discovering all the good things life has to offer.
.
She wants a family who will take her for walks, explore new places with her, share in her adventures, and, most importantly, love her as wholeheartedly as she will love them.
Dolly has so much love to give. She’s ready to discover just how beautiful forever can be. ❤️
Could you be the happily ever after this little girl has been waiting for?

7. Luna
Luna is a 9-year-old spayed female looking for a patient family who will give her the time she needs to feel safe. While her past wasn’t always kind to her, once she trusts you, her sweet and silly personality shines through.
Luna loves leisurely walks, lounging on the back of the couch to keep an eye on everything, and surprising her favorite people with a gentle ear lick when she wants some attention. She’s happiest spending quiet time with the people she loves.
Read more about Luna
Because Luna can be nervous in new situations, she’ll need an adopter who understands that trust takes time. Once she settles in, she’s affectionate, loyal, and full of personality. She would thrive in a calm, quiet home. She would likely do best as the only dog or with a calm, older dog who will respect her space and let her adjust at her own pace.
If you’re looking for a companion who will reward your patience with unwavering love and plenty of quirky moments, Luna may be the perfect match. She just needs someone willing to give her the chance she deserves.
Is your heart ready to open to sweet Luna?

Crate trained

Adopting a dog in Naples
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.
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.
