My story

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

Have you ever heard of the words `backyard breeder`? Well, that`s me...let me explain. My name is Scarlett and I`m a four-year-old gal who just wants to be loved. At my previous home I was kept outside 24/7 that is until I had puppies. Then I would get to go inside the house, but only temporarily. I have had 5 litters of puppies in my lifetime and when I had my last litter, my owner kept one of the puppies and surrendered me. I never received any medical care or vaccinations until I came here. Coming to the shelter I was nervous at first, but I am so thankful to be here at the Humane Society of Broward County. I`m getting so much love and attention from everyone, and the air-conditioning is fabulous! I love to snuggle and get lots of pets and I`m good with kids. I will need a home that is feline-free and if you have a dog at home, we need to do a meet and greet to make sure we get along, I can be selective about my dog friends.

Thanks to Dolly`s Dream, they have kindly paid my adoption fee and I get to go home with goodies to help me settle into my new home. To meet me or any other pet visit www.humanebroward.com and complete the pre-adoption application. The shelter is located at 2070 Griffin Road, Fort Lauderdale, FL, and the adoption kennels open daily at 11 a.m. If you have any questions call 954-989-3977 ext. 6.

Additional adoption info

Please visit our shelter, we are open 7 days a week and adoptions opens daily at 11 a.m. All adopters will meet with an adoption counselor to complete an adoption application and then meet their potential new family member. Please bring your driver's license with you or a bill that has your current address on it. All pets are spayed or neutered prior to going home, so the pet may not go home the same day.

The adoption fee includes spay/neuter surgery, preliminary vaccinations, deworming, treatment for fleas, microchip, limited 14 day health care plan courtesy of VCA Animal Hospitals, feline leukemia test for cats, heartworm test for dogs over the age of 7 months, and a bag of Purina ONE pet food.
