Overlooked because I'm different ๐
Jack was found outside with a severe eye injury. He had surgery and has done so well with one eye! ๐๏ธ
As the days pass by, we're realizing that having only one eye may be hurting his adoption chances. Jack is so beautiful and sweet - we hope someone will take him home soon!

Reno already lived one great love story. We hope his next will begin soon ๐งก
13-year-old Reno came to us when his when his senior owner could no longer care for him. We know she wants the best for him. Reno is such a sweetheart.
His foster family says, โReno is a sweet boy who loves attention. He enjoys head rubs, stokes down to his nose and along his collar. He'll follow you like a puppy and respond to your calling him. In the mornings he loves to snuggle up tight for his head rubs before breakfast.โ
Ready to meet Reno? Heโs currently living in a foster home, so email [email protected] to schedule a meet and greet!
They keep getting smaller! ๐ฑ
Whether you'd like to adopt a big kitty or foster one of the tiny ones, we have the perfect pick for you ๐

It's National #Mutt Day ๐
Did you know that 80% of dogs in shelters are mutts? Being mixed-breed means being UNIQUE! No two mutts are the same. Plus, mixed breed dogs' genetic diversity makes them less prone to breed-specific diseases. We love our mutts!

Bella lived every pet ownerโs worst nightmare: she ran away from home and was hit by a car.
Bella's leg was broken, but she's a survivor. Bella was found by a Good Samaritan, who brought her to Peggy Adams for an emergency amputation. Her owners were desperately searching for her, and responded immediately when we contacted them using Bellaโs microchip info.
Bella adapted so well to life on 3 legs, and was soon reunited with her family! Weโre so glad this story had a happy ending ๐งก
We are amazed by your generosity every day. Thank you! ๐งก

Pearl's life hasn't been easy. She had been bred and was heartworm positive when we pulled her from Miami Dade Animal Services. If any dog deserves a second chance, it's Pearl.

She's just 3 years old and has so much love to give. As a longtime resident, Pearl's adoption fee is WAIVED! Come on in to give her some cuddles!
