Hi there, I'm Squirrel! I'm a high-energy, super-smart, and affectionate 1-year-old pup, and I'm looking for a family who can keep up with my zest for life! I love toys, I love playing, and I'm always ready for a good cuddle session when the fun winds down. My energy and enthusiasm are off the charts, so I'll need a home where I can get plenty of playtime, exercise, and mental stimulation to keep me happy and healthy.
What Squirrel Needs:
-A home where I can be the center of attention-no young kids, please, as I'm still learning how to manage my exuberance
-Tolerant, playful dog friends who can match my energy and enjoy some rough-and-tumble playtime. I'm not the best fit for a laid-back dog, but I'm great with other dogs who can handle my enthusiasm!
-Someone who's ready to continue my training-I can be a bit mouthy when I get excited, so I'm looking for someone who's willing to provide the structure and guidance I need to be my best self
-A family or individual who enjoys an affectionate and cuddly pup who loves to shower you with kisses once the playtime is over
-A home where I can be my happy, playful self, with plenty of toys and activities to keep me engaged
If you're looking for a dog who will fill your life with laughter, love, and excitement, then I'm your guy! I can't wait to meet you and show you how much fun life can be with a joyful pup like me by your side.

More about this shelter
The Humane Society of North Central Florida was created in 2018 when the leadership of the Alachua County Humane Society, Gainesville Pet Rescue, and Helping Hands Pet Rescue decided to permanently join forces. By becoming the Humane Society of North Central Florida, our organizations were able to effectively streamline services for pets and pet owners, eliminate any duplication of services, maximize our community’s resources, and improve the life-saving abilities of the entire region.
Our founding organizations have been dedicated to serving pets in Alachua County for more than 40 years. The Humane Society of North Central Florida is a limited intake, no-kill animal rescue shelter. The animals in our facility are transferred from open-intake and/or managed admission municipal shelters across North Central Florida. The Humane Society of North Central Florida is an independent, local 501(c)(3) organization. As such, we do not receive funding from federal agencies, nor are we affiliated with any other state or national organizations such as the Humane Society of the United States or the ASPCA.
