Story

MAXX & ME PET RESCUE adoptable dogsDoggy Daycare Pro!Faith - our 'Faithy' :-) Faith is a beautiful, petite, joyful, blonde and caramel pittie mix. At just around 40lbs, she is the perfect medium size girl. She LOVES and ADORES other dogs and needs her best doggy friends at all times. Her best friends are currently Krissy & Tobie, but Faith is a doggy daycare regular and might be the most popular girl in school. She plays with 50+ dogs at doggy daycare, loves to go in the kiddie pools and splash around, but can also just chill and relax in the shade. At home, Faith loves everything cozy - blankets, cuddling, sleeping in bed with her humans, giving kisses and a good movie night on the couch. However, as soon as daylight hits, she's ready to run around in the fenced backyard with her friends. She is nervous around most men and takes time to warm up to them, but will come around. She will bark at them at first, but is easily persuaded with treats. She loves women. In Faith's ideal home, she needs another playful, happy dog (or dogs), someone home often and a secure 6' fenced yard. She has been around all sizes and breeds of dogs and does well with all of them. She can be nervous at times, so a home without young children or young children that visit, is best for her so that they don't let her out. Faith is spayed, microchipped, up-to-date on vaccines, heartworm negative and on monthly prevention. Her adoption fee is $250. Adoption applications for Faith can be done at maxxandme.org. Please follow up with one email to maxxandmerescue@gmail.com to confirm receipt of your application. Maxx & Me is an all volunteer, all foster home rescue and do not have a shelter. Please allow at least 48 hours for applications to be processed (missing information may slow the process, so please take your time and be thoughtful in your answers). All dogs posted are available (so no need to ask). We place dogs based on best home for each dog and not order of applications received. Email us at maxxandmerescue@gmail.com for updates and questions. Thank you for choosing rescue.November 3, 2024, 8:21 pm

Story

Chili urgently needs a foster or a forever home! This handsome ~5 year old has had a rough life that he never deserved. His sweet soul deserves all the love for the rest of his days. Chili was originally pulled from the euthanasia list at a local shelter in 2020. Chili thrived in his foster home and enjoyed meeting neighbors, playing with his doggie foster sister, and swimming in the pool. He was such a charming and lovable boy who found himself a family who had someone home often, a pool for him to enjoy, and lots of love to give! We thought he had his happily ever after set for him. One month ago we received the gut wrenching news that his family had gotten a new puppy 6 months prior and Chili was not meshing with the puppy. He also began to become very uncomfortable with strangers entering his home. This was not the Chili we once we knew and unfortunately we know suspect foul play. His family thankfully surrendered him, although they had also made an appointment to euthanize him as they believed "nobody can help him." We believed in Chili 4 years ago and we believe in him now. He has so much life left to live! Chili unfortunately will do best without another dog in the home and no kids at this time. He still has moments where he is his old loving self, but he is slow to trust after all he has been through and will need time. Chili's ideal home is animal free, has a fenced yard, and is a female only household. We have so much faith in Chili fo find himself again once he learns to trust again, but for now he needs an environment where he can fully feel safe. Chili is fully up to date on all vetting and is housetrained. This handsome boy knows his story is still just beginning and he will have a happy tail after all! ##2053984##

Story

Cleo will be 9 in February 2025. She loves to play! She is very affectionate and loving! She is very easy going when inside and hanging out, she will just lay around like every day is a lazy day. Cleo does not get along with cats. She grew up with other dogs, however, does not get along well with all other dogs when not being monitored. Cleo likes to do her own thing and keep to herself when it comes to socializing with other dogs. She can tolerate other dogs and will play with them, but has her limits! (as she is also a senior dog soon) She is a sweet sweet girl who deserves a loving home. I do think she would do better in a single pet home, with a yard, and someone who can spend time with her!

Loretta

American Pit Bull Terrier

Female, 4 yrs

Lutz, FL

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Loretta is a 3-year-old staffy mix looking for her forever home. Her playgroup style at the shelter was described as gentle/dainty, and her foster believes she would do best with submissive dogs. She does love to play and absolutely loves to cuddle with her foster parents She does have skin issues, which is common in bully breeds. She will likely need to be on oral allergy medicine for life. She aims to please and knows tricks like "sit" and "kisses." Due to Loretta's size, we do not recommend a home with small children. She has not been tested with cats, but her foster family believes she would do best in a home with no cats. She is crate-trained and house-trained, and her foster family is able to leave her in their guest room and she isn't destructive. All of our adoptable rescues have a clean bill of health (unless otherwise stated), are spayed/neutered, vaccinated (age-appropriately), tested (FeLV/FIV for cats, HW for dogs over 6 months of age), current on flea and heartworm prevention and microchipped. This is all included in their adoption fee that goes in as a donation to help us cover their medical costs and continue to help other animals in need. Any questions, concerns and suggestions, please feel free to contact us at ALDR@animalluvrs.org.

Rory is such a sweet, loving and fun dog. Unfortunately, she was my ex husbands and now he's not taking her and my kids and I moved when divorce was final and my landlord will not allow her. Plus we honestly don't have the time now. She loves to play and sometimes thinks she's a lap dog. She listens to sit, come here, stay. She does need leash training but really just needs a home who has time to love on her.
