Hello, I adopted Ivey on October 17,2020. Unfortunately right now Im currently homeless moving to a shelter and cannot keep her. She is 7 years old. She loves walks, naps, snacks, and cuddles. I am looking for someone who will care and love her with all the attention she needs. She does get a little bit anxious. Her shots are not up to date due to not being able to afford.

Story
Luna is a super sweet girl. She loves to run and play when given the chance. She would thrive in a home with a yard or with someone who is super active. She would do well with another dog in the home (especially male). I have had Luna for 4 years (since she was 5 weeks old) and rehoming her is one of the hardest decisions I've ever made, but I just want the best life for her and I can't give her that with my situation.

Snickerdoodle

Pit Bull Terrier Greyhound

Female, 2 yrs 7 mos
palm bay, FL
Size

Details
Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Snickerdoodle is the sweetest and most loving dog that I've ever met. She's a true "velcro" dog that's low to medium energy. She would love to be adopted into a household that would provide her with snuggles. She's been a staff favorite everywhere she's been due to her extremely loving and affectionate nature. Snickerdoodle loves to play fetch and gives the ball back gently. Snickerdoodle was seized by law enforcement in an animal cruelty case. While her previous owner's trial was ongoing, she (and 30 other dogs) had to live in a holding facility because they were considered evidence. After her previous owner was sentenced and incarcerated all of the dogs were set to be euthanized. Our nonprofit organization stepped in and pulled all of the dogs that were adoptable and loving with humans. Snickerdoodle and a few of her friends are now at a family owned boarding facility. They've had time to decompress and allow us to see their true personalities. Snickerdoodle is unsure around other dogs so if her adopter has another pet they would need to commit to a slow introduction process. She's only lived on a chain and in a holding facility so her adopters will need to be patient with her as she learns to live in a real home. She's located in Florida but transport can be arranged for the right situation. She's spayed, fully vetted, up to date on shots and is ready to find her happily ever after.

Story
Albert and 30 of his friends lived on chains in rural SC until they were rescued in May 2024. He loves people and is very interested in whatever the humans are doing! Albert is a smart boy and enjoys learning new things. He learns very quickly and loves treats and affection as a reward. Albert has never had a loving owner or lived in a house so his adopters will need to be patient with potty training. He's a staff and volunteer favorite and will make an incredible companion! He hasn't met any cats or kids yet so all members of the family will need to meet Albert prior to adoptions. Albert's neuter appointment is upcoming and will be fixed prior to being adopted.

Tooley is a 7 yr old pure bred American Pitbull Terrier. He is a super loving and sweet boy. He is well trained and behaved. He loves to be loved and played with and take walks. He is both house and crate trained. He does well with kids and adults. Understands commands and has the ability to learn more. Unfortunately, my schedule has become super busy and I am unable to provide him with the kind of love and attention he needs. Looking for nothing less than an awesome and loving home for him. Although he is not aggressive at all, an experienced pitbull owner would be best.

Story
“I came to H.A.L.O. in 2019 as a stray. I was and still am a scared little cookie. I have come a long way thanks to the encouragement of my trainers, handlers, and caregivers. I do best with positive based methods. Because of my fears, restraint being number one, I was first muzzle trained and actually, I don’t mind it at all! Once I was comfortable wearing my new jewelry, I was able to continue to be shown new experiences like salon days with pedicures, and in the end… it wasn’t really as bad as I thought!When I trust you, I open up into a bundle of mush. I enjoy walks… especially hiking trails, one on one time with enrichment toys, and fetch! I do need to be an only child, and one can never forget that I will never unlearn to use my teeth if I am pushed into a corner. If we take this journey together, I can promise we will create an incredible bond and when I feel safe, I can conquer any fears with you by my side!”Requirements: Requirements: Fence; Misfit, Handler appointment onlyAll of our dogs and cats are spayed/neutered, up to date with age appropriate vaccinations, heart worm or feleuk/FIV tested, fecal tested, rabies and tag, and microchipped before being placed in your home.

Story
I am a handsome guy with lots of love to give. I adore being with my humans and am quite anxious when they are not around so a home where someone is with me most of the time would be ideal. My favorite thing in the world is to cuddle up next to my humans and enjoy the day together. I am good for car rides and Nylabones are my favorite chew toy. Because I want all the attention to myself, I would prefer to be the only animal in the home so I can soak up all the pets and butt scratches! Even at my mature age, I still get lots of zoomies and love to give you handshakes. Foster me or adopt me, I don't mind either way - I have been at H.A.L.O. for over a year just waiting for the perfect family to take me home.Requirements: Martingale Collar; Separation Anxiety; Thyroid MedsAll of our dogs and cats are spayed/neutered, up to date with age appropriate vaccinations, heart worm or feleuk/FIV tested, fecal tested, rabies and tag, and microchipped before being placed in your home.
