My story

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

Italy recently became a mom to three puppies and she did a wonderful job raising them, but now it is her turn to be pampered! Italy is a shy, gentle 12-pound dog that would love to be the center of your world! This 2-year-old Italian Grey Hound mix likes to snuggle and be by your side. She was surrendered pregnant when her owners were moving, and she fortunately gave birth in a quiet foster home. She is friendly with other dogs, but is most happy when she has the attention of her human besties. To adopt Italy, please complete an application at AbandonedPetRescue.orgTo meet this adoptable pet, please fill out an adoption application at www.abandonedpetrescue.org and a team member will contact you to schedule an appointment.

More about this shelter

Abandoned Pet Rescue (APR) is one of the largest no-kill animal shelters in South Florida with the mission of rescuing and sheltering abandoned and abused cats and dogs with the goal of finding them new homes. APR's adoption center has about 150 cats and 30 dogs, all of which receive nutritious meals, veterinary care, enrichment and love.

APR, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, was founded in 1996 by a group of volunteers who were trapping, spaying and neutering feral cats and quickly realized the greater need to help abandoned pets and advocate for a no-kill community. APR is funded solely by generous donors and grants.
