Harry & Carly are a Bonded Pair Looking for a Forever Home TogetherHi there! We’re Carly and Harry—a bonded pair of best friends looking for a forever home together. We’re two peas in a pod, and while we each have our own unique personalities, we complement each other perfectly. Here’s a little more about us! I’m Carly, the playful one of the duo. I might be shy at first, but once I get comfortable, my personality really shines! I love being outside, whether I’m chasing squirrels, running around with my zoomies, or exploring the yard. I’ll admit, I’m a bit of a digger, so a securely fenced yard is ideal for me to safely channel my energy. I’m still learning to walk on a leash, so I’d do best in a home where I can enjoy a yard to roam freely. When I’m not outdoors, I’m a total sweetheart. I love snuggling with Harry and cozying up with my foster family. I’m Harry, the chill and loyal one. I’m happiest when I’m by your side, whether it’s relaxing on the couch, exploring the backyard, or just keeping you company. I’m an outdoorsy guy, but I’m not a fan of leashes, so a fenced yard would be perfect for me too. I use pee pads because I have Cushing’s, but don’t let that scare you—it’s manageable with regular vet care and a good routine. I’m independent but affectionate, and when I’m in the mood, I’ll come find you for some love. Together, we make an amazing team. I, Carly, bring the energy and fun, while Harry balances things out with his calm and steady nature. I love keeping Harry’s ears and face clean (he’s my best buddy, after all!), and we both enjoy cuddling up together or sharing a cozy bed. If you’re looking for a pair of loving, sweet pups to fill your home with joy and companionship, we’re the duo for you! Submit an application today to meet us—we can’t wait to start our next adventure together! If you know that I am your forever pup, please fill out an adoption application at https://daretorescue.org/adoption-application. Don't forget to put my NAME on your application!If you cannot adopt me but would like to help DARE pay for my care before I am adopted by my forever family, donate online at https://daretorescue.org/donation or send a check made payable to DARE to:DAREPO Box 21161Tampa, FL 32210     Even if you do not see a dog that matches what you're looking for, you may fill out a no obligation application at https://daretorescue.org/adoption-application and we will work to find a match for you. We receive dogs into foster care frequently, so it is impossible to have every available or soon-to-be-available dog on the website.March 12, 2025, 12:10 pm

Coming Soon: Meet Sam! Hi there! I’m Sam, a wise and loving 15-year-old dachshund mix who’s still got some pep in my step! I joined DARE in March 2025, and while my foster family and I are still getting to know each other, here’s what we’ve learned so far about me: I’m 21 pounds of pure sweetness and good with other dogs, older children, men, and women. I’m both house-trained and crate-trained—I actually love napping in my crate; it’s my cozy little retreat. I may be missing a few teeth, but that doesn’t stop me from enjoying food—it’s one of my favorite things! I’m easygoing and laid-back, making me the perfect companion for a calm and loving home. When I got to my foster home, I showed I’ve still got it by confidently finding my way up the ramp and claiming my rightful spot on the sofa. I’m still settling in and getting my bearings, but I already know I’m ready to share all the love and snuggles I have to give. If you think I might be the perfect addition to your family, don’t wait—submit your application now! My forever home could be with you. If you know that I am your forever pup, please fill out an adoption application at https://daretorescue.org/adoption-application. Don't forget to put my NAME on your application!If you cannot adopt me but would like to help DARE pay for my care before I am adopted by my forever family, donate online at https://daretorescue.org/donation or send a check made payable to DARE to:DAREPO Box 21161Tampa, FL 32210     Even if you do not see a dog that matches what you're looking for, you may fill out a no obligation application at https://daretorescue.org/adoption-application and we will work to find a match for you.

Story
Hi, I'm Bandit - the most loving and loyal dog you'll ever meet! I'm a calm and easygoing companion who loves nothing more than spending time with my people. That said, I can be a little wary of strangers at first, so our initial meet-and-greet might be a bit standoffish. But don't let that that discourage you! Once I warm up to you, I'll shower you with love and affection. I absolutely love car rides, especially when I can stick my head out of the window and enjoy the breeze. I walk beautifully on a leash - no pulling, just plenty of stops to sniff and take in my surroundings. I'm looking for a patient and understand owner who will take a chance on me, as my past hasn't been the easiest. Once I know I'm yours, I'll be fiercely loyal and protective of my family. While I can be selective with other dogs, with the right introduction, I'm open to making new friends. If you're looking for a devoted companion who will love you unconditionally, please come meet me! I can't wait to snuggle up with my new as soon as possible!!!

Story
Capitan has come to the shelter due to unforeseen and unfortunate circumstances. He was adopted from Safe Animal Shelter as a puppy in December of 2019. He lived a beautiful life with his parents, a husband and wife. He was spoiled rotten, provided with love, attention, affection, and the comfort of living in a home. Capitan was the captain of the ship. He received regular showers, and his mother would sing "You Are My Sunshine" to him. Capitan's father became ill and passed away. This left his mother no choice but to return to her home country of Puerto Rico. Capitan is very affectionate and playful, but is otherwise mild mannered. He does not enjoy other dogs or cats. If he sounds like a good fit for your home, ask about him today!

Story
Howdy! My name is Joey! I love to play with my Jolly Ball in the yard, pretending it is cattle I can herd! Other favorite past times of mine are to swim and play in the water! I could play ALL day with the energy I have and would love a family that could match it. If you have children, I may also try to herd them, but I'm still willing to give it a test! Don't let my big bark in the kennel dissuade you from meeting me as I am very different out in a big yard! Please come down and meet me!
