Story
Mi hoy minoy. Oh, silly me, allow me to translate for you - I am Doodlebob. If I could just borrow a pencil...I could write down all the things I love about life: tennis balls, peanut butter, humans, learning. I'm an attentive student and can settle my wiggly booty down when it's time to learn. I already know sit and down, and the humans are currently teaching me heel, come, and speak. I've been a friend to the other dogs I've met thus far, too. I can definitely go zoom zoom when it's time to play, but my indoor manners are simply divine, and I would make a super solid dog for someone who wants a little of everything. Ask to meet me!

Story
My name is Cashew, and I'm totally nuts about you! And all people! And playing! And other dogs! And cats! Wow, I actually love everything! But I have to say, my most favorite thing is....chairs. I will weasel my way into your chair, sometimes I will sit in your lap for cuddles, other times I'll just sit behind you. As long as I'm the center of attention, I'm the happiest little fella ever. I've been working on sit, down, paw, and I'm believed to be housebroken. I'm so smart that I actually learned how to climb fences, so I do best with supervised yard time. I'm full of beans, so zooming around with other dogs is always great fun, and after a day of play we can sit in a cozy chair together. Let's get acquainted!

Story
I am what I am...and what I am is...a GOOD BOY! I'm Reebok, and I'm a stellar little athlete. You should see me zipping around with all of my friends! Let me tell ya, I have LOTS of friends, both people and canine! I'm a petite boy, but these legs of mine can make me bounce reeeeal high, so maybe I have a future as a pro athlete, perhaps in agility? When I'm not running around with my pals, I'm a sweetie pie and will plop down by your feet, ready to accept all the belly rubs. I am just a puppy at the end of the day, but I'm very praise motivated and have been working on all the basic puppy stuff like sit, stay, come, but my favorite word is PLAY! My current foster family is actively working on my potty training and crate training, and reports me as being great with the 8yr old daughter in the home and the snuggliest sweetie you could ever have the pleasure to meet. How about we play today? Email foster@alachuacounty.us to meet me!

Story
I'm 50 Scent, and I've been waiting for you in da club....da friendship club! I'm a solid medium energy kinda guy and VERY attentive to my person. I've spent time in a foster home, and my foster family reports I'm housebroken, crate trained, and know sit and paw, and I'll always whip out the tricks when you offer me a little snack (perhaps from the candy shop) or a squeaky toy! After we spend some time together outside in the sunshine, I'm totally content to sploot on the floor next to you while you get work done, and I'll be ready for cuddles whenever you are. Da friendship club is VERY tight-knit, and I much prefer people to everything else. I would prefer to be the only pet in the home, pretty please. The only other thing you should know about me is that I CAN climb fences, but I really have no desire to as long as you're with me, so supervised time outside or leashed walks is perfect for me. Adopting me would be like partying like it's your birthday EVERY DAY! Mic drop. Let's meet!

Ray is a 2-3-year-old Pit Bull who came to us in rough shape. He was emaciated and heart worm positive. He has since put on plenty of weight and looks like a healthy, slightly beefy boy. He is on the slow kill heart worm method so he is available as a foster to adopt until he is heart worm negative. He loves people and can get a little exited so he may be too much for young kids, but may be just fine? He likes toys and is eager to please. He is going to make an excellent side-kick for some lucky human/s.Visit us at the Gainesville Petsmart on Archer Rd Saturdays 11 am to 5 pm and Sundays Noon to 5 pm.

Story
Captain Goober came to us in bad shape. He had a very badly injured leg. We were lucky enough to get some funding from a special donor to the UF Small Animal Hospital and he was able to receive a very expensive and specialized surgery, and rehab to fix him. Captain was also very undersocialized with both humans and dogs. Due to this, he will likely time to warm up to any new people, but if you can be patient with him, he is such a good dog and has come so far! He also circles when nervous, but this is simply a soothing technique for him, and not a neurological concern. He absolutely is not fond of cats and should not go to a home with any cats or smaller animals. He has not been around children, but should be find with older kids, provided them give him time to warm up and let him come to them on his own. He would do best with a female dog that is playful but accepting of some pushy behvaiors. He will also have arthritis in his healed leg, and would do best on supplements. We are looking for an adopter with breed experience.
