Elphie was part of a litter that was born on someone's property. She was not thriving and mom was not taking care of her. A good samaritan pulled her and asked if we'd take her. Since then we'd say she is THRIVING and has gotten some much needed care! She is getting a lot of love and attention at her foster home. She does great with kids! Elphie is looking for her forever home!

Shadow

Shepherd (Unknown Type) Vizsla

Fort Walton Beach, FL
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Shadow is a great friend! She gets along great with kids! She is about 9 years old but still runs around like a puppy. Loves cuddles and being near her people. Her name is more about her personality than her color because when she loves you she will follow you around like a shadow. She loves playing outside and loves cuddles as well. She is protective of her family but never aggressive. She is behaved enough to walk off leash next to you. She would make a great addition to a family! Her sister Josephine is also up for adoption and while I would love to regime them together, I understand that can be difficult. But she is a great friendly girl with lots of life that would be your best friend after the first time you feed her!

Story
Josephine is a big friendly girl! She is about 4 years old. She doesn't realize that she is big sometimes and gets super excited but it's clear that it is all puppy love! She is great with children and other dogs! She has never met anyone that she didn't love. I love her but I am moving out of the country and cannot take her with me. She has a sister named Shadow(black dog shown above) that will also be up for adoption. I would love to Rehome them together but I understand that it may not be possible. She goes by Josephine, Josie, and Jo-Jo. She loves playing outside, She loves cuddles and kisses, she loves just about whatever food you would possibly give her. Ideally JoJo would live on a farm with other dogs and kids because she is a great team player.
