Story
*By appointment only Meet Ciara, a small Chihuahua/Terrier mix with a big heart, ready to find her forever home. Though she’s had a tough start in life, Ciara is learning to trust and thrive in a calm, loving environment. At first, she may be reserved and need a cozy crate to feel safe, but once she’s comfortable, her sweet and affectionate side shines. Ciara will thrive in a calm, loving environment where her family understands her need for time to adjust. A quieter home with a routine and plenty of love (and snacks) is perfect for her. A comfy crate and a warm bed (with blankets, of course) are must-haves. She’s working on potty training and leash training, making steady progress with patience and encouragement. She needs to go to a home with a secure, fenced in yard as she is still a flight risk. Ready to meet Ciara? She’s waiting to become your loyal and snuggly companion!

Story
Hi, I'm Wally (short for Wally West, like the superhero, the Flash ⚡)! I'm an energetic 8-year-old neutered male Terrier mix. I love cuddling, playing with toys, running around, and doing tricks like sit, lie down, roll over, and shake paws. I'm smart and can learn more with time and treats. I'm crate trained and sleep there willingly. I get along with other dogs and cats, though I can be a bit too playful for smaller dogs. With cats, I’m calm but they don’t always want to play. I do best in a home without young children because I tend to get jealous, especially with my little human brother who has health issues. I need an active home where I can get plenty of walks or have a yard to run in. I am up to date on my vaccines but overdue for a dental. My parents are going through a tough time financially and hope to find me a loving home where I can thrive. They are not asking for a rehoming fee and can provide my crate, toys, and other essentials. Thank you for considering me! ❤️

Are you seeking a companion to spend your days with? Are you home during the day?But you're lonely? Maybe you don't have any pets, and you've been thinking about getting somebody that you can talk to around the house? Well we have great news... Link is the dog for you! He prefers a home with no other animals to compete with for your love. He's okay around other animals, but he would just prefer to not have to share his human. He was rescued from a county municipal shelter and has been in a loving home for the last month or two. He does not lift his leg, which is a wonderful quality in a boy. He is not a good fit for the person that adopted him from the shelter and we are assisting in finding a better match for his happily ever after.  Please text us at 352843685 a.If you would leave like a link to the application, or if you have any other questions about our boy Link. ##2282348##

Story
Duke needs a new forever family! Dukes momma has been in and out of the hospital for the last year. He has been in and out of foster care, right behind her. A valient effort has been made to preserve their relationship, these past 10 months. The recent developments in everyone's health has changed the dynamics, drastically. Duke's foster cannot continue to provide care and Duke's momma wishes to surrender him permanently because she is unable to provide the care that he needs.    That means Duke needs a forever home. He is a healthy and happy little 4 year old chihuahua. Neutered and current on all vaccines and monthly prevention. He walks well on leash and is good in the house. He is very opinionated about strangers but has never bitten anyone. He has gotten along with other small dogs in the past. He needs a person that knows little dog energy and can give him the attention he requires. BEST placed in a home with no other pets. Located in Ocala FL   Please connect with us by text if you wish to adopt Duke. 352-843-6858 ##2310536##

Story
Sally came from a hoarding situation and is still learning to trust people. She's making progress and taking steps toward socialization. With a gentle touch, Sally can grow more confident and has so much to offer in a calm, loving home. Having another dog around would really boost her confidence. She's been working on her leash walking skills and has been doing great going on daily walks, but definitely still needs someone who can continue working with her so that she can finally come out of her shell.

Story
Hello! My name is Milo. I came to VOCAL when my family was going through major changes and had to move out of state. I have lived with other small dogs and love to play. I am a smart boy with a TON of energy! I'm also a great dancer, I like to stand on my back feet and do a lil dance to get attention....I LOVE attention and spending time with people. I am a typical chihuahua, I'm VERY loyal but can take a minute to warm up to new people, especially men, but once I know you're ok, we're friends forever. I'm looking for the perfect family with a comfy couch to call my own!
