Story
Roxie has been in her foster home for over a year In that time, she has been found to be: independent snuggly when she wants to be.. she will let you groom her she is a quiet girl at first but will let you know when its dinner time she does get along with all the dogs but doesnt really play with them. coexisting is a good word. .she does not need a home with another dog. And no little barky dogs she likes to chase. she walks great on lead. totally housebroken will bark to go out. crates great has some barrier reaction in a smaller crate, we are working on that.. something happened to her while she was kept in a small crate. That has pretty much subsided, we do feed in the crate all the time and have seen no reactivity for months no children would be best, 16 or up okay.. no cats no chickens. she watches my neighbors like a hawk, good news she calls off she knows her name and has a recall. she does not know sit down etc. and at 10 do you need it? she does not get on furniture. i have 12 dogs here she does NOT get in the mix. Overall Roxy is a nice senior dog, that has had a crappy life. She needs time to adjust to a new home and new people, once she knows you, her tail wags and she dances when you come in. She does need a dog savvy person, she will make a great companion dog for older couple or older single person who wants a dog to walk watch the sunset with or watch tv with. She needs a quiet environ, and a slow consistent person she can trust.. Fostered in Bradenton. Vet visit upcoming. 1/17 vet visit unremarkable. healthy senior pup. no issues. PUPDATE 7/24 Roxie continues to just be a sweet girl!! Is there no one out there that needs a great companion dog??? She is really not a snuggler, but instead will walk alongside you and be your best friend. She really needs to move to another foster OR adopter, so she can experience new situations. apps can be found at ewenityfarmsbch.com.

Story
one of many dogs confiscated from a hoarding situation. Hen has received shots and is now spayed. She is good with other dogs, needs time with people, shy not snippy. She darts in to see you with tail awagging and then gets a pet and darts away.. She allows touch all over, and is easily picked up and held. Penny is a dogs dog. that means she prefers the company of dogs to people. She needs lots of touch, car rides different places to see and meeting lots of new people all in small metered doses. Will need a patient loving foster or foster to adopt who knows chis. This acclimation is at her pace not yours. She does allow handling and is good with other dogs. Now house trained and loves her crate! She will fly into her crate when I leave or she is going to eat! Will need another kind patient dog to be with but one that is really playful.. She is a very active girl and loves to play. She really cannot go to a home without another dog to model herself after. Fences yard is a must. Not quite sure about being a snuggly girl yet, but its coming!! Likes to sleep next to you! fostered in Bradenton. Apps are found at ewenityfarmsbch.com.. She is 12 pounds soaking wet!

Story
Elsa is fairly new to us and is already fitting into our household.. She will not make waves with other pups and gets along just fine. She does not really play with them, respects their space. She is quiet, not really needy and self sufficient. She is a submissive gal, approx 4 yrs old. Fully vetted, walks fine on lead. She is very food driven, crate trained, housebroken and pad trained. She does have a limp in her right rear, xrays show an old hip injury. May benefit from surgery, but it is something she has had for a long time. We did start her on supplements. We are scheduling a trip to the vet for more info on that. Lower energy gal, will be good for a retired person or couple who wants a companion and good friend. She is a great little dog, happy and grateful. Fostered in the Bradenton area, and ready to go!!

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.    Ryan is a shy with people does well with his pack friends. Ryan was left out side when his owners moved. He was on his own for about 11 months when animal control finally caught him. No one could touch him. He has come a long ways but needs someone who understands that it will take time for him to warm up to them. He does sit on my lap now and will sit next to someone he knows. He is an extreme flight risk until he can trust the person he is with.  He would do well if he has a playmate his size. He needs an experienced owner. He is not overly affectionate but loves to come on my lap and loves his back rubs and head scratchs. He also needs a secure fenced yard. He does not do well on a leash. Only experienced people with this type of dog will be considered for Ryan. Will not answer any emails just applications will be reviewed and considered. Ryan does not do well out side his environment. Needs someone who will be with him most of the time so he can start to feel secure not taken on trips or watched by other people. It will take time and he will come around to be a wounderful companion.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.    October 23, 2024, 12:06 am
