My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Stella is a walker hound who is full of energy! She's spayed & up to date with vaccinations, heartworm free. Stella is sweet. She needs a home with a family who is able to give her time & attention and space to run. She may do best with an older dog or a laid back, confident male. She also plays well with other young, energetic dogs at the shelter. It's unknown if she gets along with cats. Stella is working on being becoming house trained.
Stella is very nervous with loud noises. -Thunder, fireworks guns being fired.


Stella needs a home where she will not be crated a lot. She goes to the bathroom in her crate. Now whether that is a behavior thing as she does not like a crate we don't know. She does go to the bathroom outside also. She does play well with other dogs and is a sweet little girl.

Please consider fostering or adopting. Our rule is if wanting to adopt you would live with Stella for at least two weeks to make sure it is a good fit.
You must have a vet reference, a fenced yard, no small children and be a permanent resident of the Jacksonville, Fla area.
No apartments. Do not apply unless you meet the requirements, please.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our adoption fee is $150.This covers spaying/neutering,shots,a heartworm test.This fee also might cover any illnesses or injuries animals may have suffered when entering into our system.We will pay for the heartworm treatment, when needed. Before adoption all animals are checked by the vet so we know a healthy animal will be going to it's new home.
Adopters must be permanent residents of the Jacksonville area.They must have a fenced yard and be able to provide a vet reference. When adopting a shelter pet, children in the family must be over six. The shelter dogs and cats are strays and we usually have no history on the animal.When we post animals for people who are trying to rehome their pets, there may not be an age requirement. The current owner can provide a history of the animal with children.

Go meet their pets

.We ask interested adopters to go to our site and view animals available.Then after doing an application and checking the vet reference and the home/yard we set up an appointment to bring the dog to the potential adopter. All our animals are on a trial period of at least two weeks in their new home before adoption is final.
We always have animals exercising and by not having people constantly walking through the shelter their routine is not interrupted.
We do not make our address publicly available as in the beginning we found kittens,puppies and cats in boxes at
our front gate.Dogs have been tied to our dumpster even.

More about this shelter

We are a no-kill shelter/sancuary.We have been in operation for 30 years.
We promote spaying/neutering.
When we can not accept an animal from an owner we offer free advertising as a means to get a forever home versus taking the animal to a kill shelter.
We sometimes help with medical bills for people who are unable to provide care.Example we spay/neuter for the elderly and people who are needing assistance.Sometime in certain cases we will help with vet bills if the animal is sick and the only alternative for the owner is relinquishing the animal to a kill shleter.We work closely with local vets.
In 2001 Pet Rescue North won The Most Humane Caregiver of Animals from the Jacksonville Humane Society.
We operate strictly on donations.And our workers are volunteers.We accept money and items needed to operate the shelter such as food and cleaning items
We have qualified for the Compaign Federal Campaign payroll deduction plan.Also the United Way write in payroll deduction plan.
