Story
Are you looking for a seasoned playmate who loves to cuddle just as much as he loves to tug? That's ME, Chester, a charming 8-year-old pup with a heart full of love and a spirit that's as playful as a puppy's! I am the epitome of a lifelong learner. I adore picking up new tricks and skills, making me an ideal companion for anyone eager to teach and bond with their furry friend. Whether it's learning something that makes you smile or exploring a new trail, I am always up for an adventure. When I'm not busy learning, my favorite pastime is playtime! I am a tug-of-war aficionado and will gladly challenge you to a friendly game. My enthusiasm is infectious, and my joy for playtime will surely bring a smile to your face. Despite my playful nature, I have a softer side too. I absolutely adore cuddling up next to my favorite humans, where I feel safest and happiest. My affection knows no bounds, and I'm always ready to shower my family with love. It's important to note that I also embrace my sensitive side. I am a little wary of storms and fireworks, so a comforting environment during loud noises will help me feel secure and calm. If you're ready to welcome a loving, playful, and cuddly companion into your life, I eagerly await meeting you. Come check out a delightful dog who promises to bring endless joy, laughter, and love to your home!

Story
Yoda is 3 years old, and he is an awesome dog. He is super friendly and loyal. Never had any issues with aggression as he loves everyone he comes in contact with. As other common white boxers, he is deaf, so he becomes very dependent of his dog brothers or sisters. He loves our cat and his brother Chewy. We are heartbroken as we look for a good family to take care of him as we are relocating to Spain. He is always hungry for food and adventure, loves the sun, but doesnt like to use SPF. He is very obedient and knows how to sit patiently for his food.

Story
Contact: Alisa12/1/2024 -  Zara completed her board and train and she is ready to adopt or foster!   Zara has graduated training! She is a 2 y/o female with lots of Boxer energy. She loves to run in her yard, play with her toys and still has more in her engine to complete zoomies for the day!   Look at those eyes! Zara exhibits the typical Boxer love and energy they are known, and loved for. Zara is a sweet girl, and she needs to be an only dog at the moment. She has no problems being near others but still needs some corrections when interacting. She has no problem walking next to each other or passing them on a walk.     As a foster/adopter you will need to continue socialization and always advocate for her. Help her make great decisions. It will be crucial for the foster or adopter to provide sufficient guidance and structure for her.   She is very timid when she meets new people, but with continued training and slow introductions she will be fine.   Our trainer will continue to assist you and Zara be successful. Evaluation Hold: 7/21/2024 - Zara is under our mandatory evaluation period, and is not available for adoption at this time. The foster home will have the opportunity to adopt once the evaluation period is complete.  If you would like to be a back-up applicant for Zara, please complete an application at:   http://flbr.org/application-form/.  Please also take a look at her available boxer friends as we get to know her better.  Age: 2 y/o  Wt. 60 lbs.

Story
Contact: Sandra 1/20/2025 - URGENT FOSTER HOME NEEDED! Loving, patient home needed. Initially we thought Zelda needed to be an only dog but it ends up she was just scared and confused. We don't know much about Zelda's past but we know she has a bright future in the right home. Are you that home? She's good with other dogs as long as they're well socialized. She's not fond of being left alone for a long period of time (but who is?)  She's sweet and loves people -  just needs a fresh, happy start to the new year. She is currently working and living with a trainer who will transfer her seamlessly into her new home with you. Please consider adding Zelda to your family. 11/1/2024 - Zelda is just such a happy and loving puppy, but she needs to be in a home with no other pets as she barks at any dog she sees and acts like she wants to attack. Zelda is not treat motivated so it’s hard to redirect her. Her prey drive is on a high too and focuses on animals, birds or squirrels. She does bark at everyone, but once she meets them, she’s just all love. Inside the house she’s amazing, a total love bug, cuddler but must know where her people are, she checks on us if in separate rooms. Zelda also barks when she goes in the crate, but usually settles down. She’s hesitant to get into the crate but goes in with a little direction. When she gets excited her tail goes into turbo, she is just all big smiles, and she howls at you with excitement. Just so cute! She is house trained and when she wants to go out, she lets you know, she howls at you sometimes and just directs you to the door if you’re not near it or if near it she’ll sit by it and let you know. She is good at the park if there are no other dogs or animals.   Evaluation Hold: 5/8/2024 - Zelda is under our mandatory evaluation period, and is not available for adoption at this time. The foster home will have the opportunity to adopt once the evaluation period is complete.  If you would like to be a back-up applicant for Zelda, please complete an application at:   http://flbr.org/application-form/.  Please also take a look at her available boxer friends as we get to know her better.  January 20, 2025, 2:08 pm

Story
Meet Cora, a 3-year-old pit bull who’s as sweet as she is sassy! With her adorable wiggle butt and love for cuddles, Cora is a true cuddlebug once she feels comfortable around you. While she can be a bit shy at first, give her some time, and she’ll warm up to you with all the love and affection you can handle! Cora is a bit selective with both people and other dogs, so she’ll thrive in a home where she’s the only pet or with a family that understands her unique social needs. She’s good on a leash, making walks enjoyable, and she’s a big fan of tennis balls—get ready for some fun fetch sessions! When it comes to playtime, Cora gets vocal—her excitement is hard to contain when she’s having fun. She’s also toy-motivated, which makes her a joy to train and engage with. However, she’s protective of her food, so she’d do best in a home where her space is respected during meal times. Cora is looking for a patient, understanding family who can give her the time and space she needs to truly shine. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving companion who will reward you with cuddles and playful moments, Cora could be your perfect match!

Story
Hello, I'm Justice, a two-year-old Pit Bull mix with a heart full of love and resilience. Despite a rough start in life, I've blossomed into a gentle and playful girl who's ready to find a loving forever home. My name is JUSTICE for a reason after all. I may be small in size, often called a "pocket Pit Bull," but my affection knows no bounds. I thrive on cuddles, belly rubs, and giving kisses-nothing makes me happier than showering my human friends with love. Toys are another passion of mine; whether it's a squeaky ball or a chew toy, I'll happily engage in playtime for hours, then curl up next to you when it is time to relax. My playful spirit is matched only by my sweetness. I'm known for my gentle nature and patience, especially with those who show me kindness. I adore spending time with people, especially children. Their laughter and energy bring out the best in me, and I cherish every moment of play and companionship we share. While I love humans dearly, I can be a bit cautious around other dogs at first. It takes me some time to build trust with new canine friends, but with patience and slow introductions, I can learn to enjoy their company too. At two years old, I'm past the destructive puppy stage. I'm eager to learn new tricks and continue growing with positive reinforcement and guidance. I'm a loyal companion who's ready to bring joy and love into a forever family's life. If you're looking for a gentle and affectionate addition to your home, someone who loves toys, kisses, and cherishes children, then Justice is the perfect match for you. Come meet me, and let's create a lifetime of cherished memories together! Key Details: Name: Justice Breed: Pit Bull mix (pocket size) Age: 2 years Temperament: Affectionate, sweet, playful Loves: Toys, kisses, children Needs: Slow introductions to new dogs
