Story
This total love bug is looking for a forever family that ideally has no other dogs (or cats) or a small mellow pup for her to befriend and a fenced in yard. The fenced yard is not required, but this girl LOVES the freedom to run and play in a yard and you will get extra bonus points if you have a hose for her to play with! Luna LOVES  water and is the perfect adventure buddy. Luna is much smaller than she appears in photos and is quite petite at only 41 pounds! This playful, spunky, loving, 4 yr old lab mix has been waiting for her forever home for over a year and we are just so shocked! She LOVES people and is a wonderful companion. She adores water and playing in the hose, is great at bath time, never begs for food (even if you are right next to her), and is fully vetted. She was rescued from a hoarding case and unfortunately can be reactive to new pups especially on leash, but is better at introductions off leash. Luna does great in a car and is always really great at meeting brand new people- she just wants to give and receive love and is so excited to meet her forever family as soon as possible. Her family will be extremely lucky to call Luna theirs furever! Luna can’t wait to meet you!To adopt: www.compassionkind.org/adopt ##1780319##

Gypsy is looking for a forever home in Los Angeles, CA! This sweet ~1 year old girl was rescued from a neglect case where she lived in a junkyard. Due to her past experiences, she does best with slow introductions to other dogs. She has potential to live in a home with one other pup, but gets very nervous if there are multiple dogs or a pack. She is great with kids and all humans! She is just a lover girl who is excited for a second chance at life and is learning so many new things. She is fully vetted and up to date. To inquire about adopting her, please fill out a formal application on line:www.compassionkind.org/adopt  ##2223761##

Story
Tricia is a fun-loving, spayed, ~45lbs, compact bundle of joy! Tricia loves to play with other dogs, toys, and water hoses. Tricia has lived with cats and does best with confident cats. Small foster kittens are a little too exciting for her, but this is expected for such a playful pup. Tricia enjoys mental and physical enrichment including food puzzles and would make an excellent hiking or other adventure buddy. Tricia was a hit with several Tampa Bay Buccaneers players at a recent event and has never met a stranger! Tricia has only been around children briefly during events and has taken treats gently from them but may accidentally knock smaller children over. Tricia responds very well to positive reinforcement training techniques and responds to the cues sit, shake/paw, down (as in lay down), off (great to use when tempting counter treats are within sniffing range!), touch, and place. Tricia is also house trained! Tricia can sometimes get a little overwhelmed and extra excited but is easily redirected with toys and/or treats. If you're looking for a dog who will be your partner for all of your fun activities, Tricia is your girl!!

Maddie is a lucky gal who loves belly rubs, carrots, and attention. She can entertain herself but prefers people, cuddles, toys, and treats. She is crate trained, house trained, spayed and up to date on all her vaccines. She does not mind dressing up in costumes and clothes. Maddie travels well and loves to ride in the car. She is a powerful, high-energy dog. Maddie would do best in the home of an experienced handler and without small pets or young children. She can and has lived with other larger dogs successfully but Maddie lacks confidence and can be reactive. Continued vigilance, training, and proper introductions are necessary for a positive outcome. Maddie had a rough start in life. She was in a high kill shelter on euthanasia day with her puppies when she was saved. Maddie is a fun-loving dog who will enhance your life!

Story
Meet Tyson! This 7-year-old American Staffordshire Terrier is a survivor with a heart full of love. Tyson recently beat the odds after being dumped at shelter with a massive bleeding splenic tumor turned out to be benign, and he’s now finishing up heartworm treatment. Tyson is as sweet as they come – a total cuddle bug who thinks he’s a lap dog! He loves hopping on the couch for snuggles, giving kisses, and soaking up all the attention. His favorite things are his toys, and he gets so excited when you play with him. Tyson adores people (including toddlers!) but would thrive as the only dog in the home. He’s learning to take treats gently and can sometimes guard his toys, so he’ll do best with a family familiar with dog body language. If you’re looking for a happy, affectionate companion to be the center of your world, Tyson is your guy!

Story
Bellini is a 4 year old mixed breed low rider who weighs 28lbs. She is very people friendly & has an amazing temperament. She’s good with dogs of all sizes and will engage in play. Bellini came to us with yeasty skin and missing hair which is resolving nicely. We are unsure if it was from years of neglect or if she will require maintenance which would include things like skin supplements, medicated baths & Cytopoint injections for itching. She’s microchipped, UTD on vaccines & will be spayed on 1/29. If you’d like to give Bellini a home please send an inquiry to Lovetotherescueinc@gmail.com We do not accept phone call inquiries. Bellini is fostered in Wesley Chapel, FL. Our travel time for home checks must not exceed one hour.
