Story
Meet Scruffy! Scruffy is a sweet 9-year-old, 20-pound Jack Russell/Shih Tzu mix who's looking for a loving home to spend his golden years. With his adorable scruffy face and big personality, he'll quickly win your heart! As he gets older, Scruffy isn't a fan of grooming, so he'll need a patient groomer who understands senior pups with some reactivity. Scruffy loves his walks and lives for even short strolls. While he can be reactive to other dogs on leash (he might just want to say hi but gets overexcited), he's living peacefully with 9 smaller dogs in foster care. A fenced yard would be ideal, but if you're comfortable handling his occasional reactivity by redirecting or walking away from distractions, Scruffy will happily trot alongside you. Scruffy is a fan of cozy bedtimes and has mastered using stairs to climb into bed with his person-he loves to snuggle close at night. However, he is a little unsure around young kids or "tiny humans," so a home with no children or one with older, dog-savvy kids who respect a dog's boundaries would be best. If you have a heart for seniors and want to give Scruffy the chance to live his best life, he could be your perfect companion! Ready to bring Scruffy home? Fill out an application on our website at PapillonPalsRescue.com (Available Dogs section) to start the process. Our adoption radius is 150 miles from Jacksonville, FL. All pets in the home must be spayed/neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations, and on heartworm prevention.

Story
Gunther is the sweetest energetic boy. I love him so much and he has so much love to give. Unfortunately at this time in my life I am unable to keep him and want what is best for him. He enjoys cuddling and nice long walks. He loves tug ropes and playing in mud and water. He enjoys run in grass and chasing lizards. He is a great hunter and companion. He is a protector and true friend. He especially gets a long with dogs his size. It takes him longer to get a long with bigger dogs because of the battle for alpha male. He knows basic commands like sit and stay. However he is clever and likes to chase small animals.

Story
Max is an incredibly sweet and energetic dog, full of joy and enthusiasm. He loves playing fetch with his toys and tennis balls, and he even knows the difference between the two! Max has a special love for water, and his favorite activity is playing in the sprinkler. He also enjoys chasing water from the hose, and he could happily do that for hours. Max would thrive in a home with a family, especially with children, as he craves attention and would greatly benefit from an environment where he can receive plenty of love and playtime.
