My story

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

A Tale of Resilience and Hope

In a world where second chances are rare, Sisto Scruffy is hoping for his first real chance at happiness. This brave 5-year-old Dachshund Terrier mix has a heart full of love, just waiting for the right family to call his own.

Sisto's Journey

Rescued from unimaginable conditions in a hoarder's house, Sisto and his siblings faced a difficult start in life. Matted fur, anxiety, and fear were their constant companions. But with the loving care of Good Karma Pet Rescue, Sisto began his journey of healing and trust.

A Diamond in the Rough
-Age: 5 years young
-Weight: A cuddly 18 lbs

-Health: Fully vaccinated, neutered, and given a clean bill of health

Sisto's Transformation

With patience and love from his foster family, Sisto is blossoming:
-From cowering in fear to cautiously exploring his surroundings
-Learning to play with toys and walk on a leash
-Showing his intelligence and adaptability every day

The Perfect Home for Sisto

Sisto would thrive in a home with:
-Patient and understanding owners
-Other friendly dogs to show him the ropes
-Someone who can be home often to continue building his confidence

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We have a quick but thorough adoption process. We ask you to fill out an application and we will touch base with you by phone. If we feel you are a good fit for the animal you would like to adopt based upon your application, we will want to do a home visit and have you meet the pet. If everything checks out, we will ask that you sign an adoption contract and pay a donation - usually $75 for cats and $150 for dogs. This includes all vetting, spay/neuter, vaccines, etc.

Our contract allows us to come visit you and your new family member after the adoption to make sure everything is going well and your new pet is happy & healthy.

Go meet their pets

We meet potential adopters by appointment only, typically in the foster's or potential adopter's home. Dogs can be arranged to be seen at a local park or a similar location.

More about this rescue

Good Karma Pet Rescue is a small network of foster homes in South Florida dedicated to providing dogs and cats in need with the love and help they need and deserve.

GK was started in 2011 by Stacey Chen, who decided that she could best provide for her foster animals by starting a rescue that aims for best care rather than high volume. We intend to stay as small as we need to be to ensure that every one of our foster animals is treated with the same care and respect we show our own furry family.

GK is based in Fort Lauderdale and is supported by wonderful, dedicated foster parents throughout the South Florida area. If you are interested in helping to save lives through volunteering, fostering, or adopting, please get in touch with us!
