Happy Tails
Bailey
Congratulations to Bailey on her adoption today, June 5, 2025! She has become quite the traveler! Have a wonderful, adventurous life you pretty girl!
Timber
I have hesitated a bit to post this amazing news simply because Timber still has the heartworm treatment protocol ahead of her. BUT, we are fairly certain that she has found her forever home with our wonderful previous adopters of Willow, now known as Angel! These guys are awesome and have been slowly introducing Timber to their dogs and everything is progressing super nicely! I promise we could not be happier for our girl, whom we have come to love immensely!
We are so happy and will update her progress with the treatment as soon as it begins.

Rhea (now Maisy!), is a beautiful, 4-year-old girl who lucked out in finding the perfect home!

This has got to be one of the cutest adoption pics ever! Congratulations Tiffany, you sweet goofy girl! You have a wonderful family to love you!
Mozart
Can you believe how many GORGEOUS dogs are just being dumped right now?! For the life of me I will never understand. Mozart is another one of our Jacksonville area abandoned dogs.

Jesse
Jesse has found her dream home with a family that challenges her extreme intelligence and focused toy drive. Jesse has GSD friends in her new home in case she chooses to just play.

Well, HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to Eros (now Tucker!) on his long time coming adoption! Tucker's family has stuck by him through thick and thin and never gave up on this boy! Have a great life Tuck!
Link and Ivar
Talk about a therapy dog for another dog! Many applications came in for Ivar and only a few for Link. When we approved Ivar's home, we gave it a shot and asked them if they would like a 2 for 1… They had been following the story on our page and immediately agreed to give it a try! Well,
CONGRATULATIONS

Ian
“Saturday morning behind the scenes feel good story” 3-18-23
Sometimes things happen quickly and quietly, but always with reason. Gorgeous Ian came to us through our wonderful trainer, Melissa. She was contacted by a training facility and asked to help place Ian. This STUNNING boy was found in his crate during rescue operations after hurricane Ian. Sadly, his owners did not survive. He made his way to Melissa and we had a wonderful pre-approved veteran waiting for a companion. Well, as you can see it was a match made in heaven. If you look closely you'll see the wife on Facetime as we couldn't leave her out of the celebration! We are so thankful for all the rescue hearts in this world.

Duchess
Our beautiful Duchess girl has found her forever person just in time for Valentine's Day. We couldn't be happier for her! Congratulations, Duchess!
Tora
Tora came to us by way of our wonderful friend and trainer Melissa. She reached out to ask us for help finding her a home when she was ready. We had a couple of possibilities, but they didn't work out. Sadly, Tora had a crisis last week. She lost some mobility, was dehydrated and lethargic. After a visit to the vet, it turns out that Tora has Addisons. This disease is not curable. Tora will live her life with Melissa, John and their pack. Some things are meant to be. Tora is home!
Pearl
Today was Pearl's special day! What a lucky girl she is! She will be enjoying the country life on acreage with new dog friends, Huckleberry and Brody, chickens, turkeys, ducks and a cat! So much room to run! May God bless Pearl and her new family! (Special thanks to Marie and Danny for getting her ready for her forever home!)
Suni
Congratulations to our sweet girl Suni and her new family! She is the luckiest girl ever to have been fostered by her first mom, Katrina, who brought her through heartworm treatment and gave her all the love she needed to flourish. Now, Suni has found her next perfect forever home! After a few twists and turns, her family found her and we could not be happier for this sweet, beautiful girl. Happy life!
🎈✨Foster Mom of the Year✨🎈
KATRINA 🏆
Suni & Katrina
Some stories have sad and happy endings. That's this story. Suni came to us with Lucky and King, now Reggie, back in April 2022. All 3 were heart worm positive. The boys found their homes, but Suni had some detours in her journey. Her first family didn't work out which was not Suni's fault, so back she went to our wonderful foster, Marie. After a while, with little interest on Suni, Katrina found her and fostered her throughout her lengthy heart worm treatment. All was going well, and it was time to set an adoption date. But then, we all got the sad news. Katrina was being unexpectedly called overseas for the remainder of her military enlistment. Sadly, she made a heartbreaking decision to ask us to find her another home for Suni. 😢 We want to thank Katrina from the bottom of our hearts for all she did for this beautiful girl and for serving our country when called. 🧡 Sometimes rescue is an emotional rollercoaster that moves quickly. Though we are sad for Katrina, we are so happy that Suni has finally found her forever family. Above is Katrina and Suni a few minutes before Suni started her new life.
Please join me in thanking Katrina for her service to our country and for all she did for Suni! 🙏

Not going to lie, I prayed HARD for this boy! Special thanks to Marie for getting him ready for family life! Happy forever!
Flash

Jack Sparrow
This adoption is extra special to us. Congratulations to our favorite pirate, Jack Sparrow!

Special thanks to Marie and Samantha for getting him ready for a new forever home. Super thanks to Jack's new family for seeing what a great dog he is and providing him the home he is so worthy of! I think Jack and his k9 brother Clark will be best friends! Have a happy life Jack!
Remmington (Remmi)

Our darling little Kyza has found herself a forever family! I am so happy for her! She is such a sweet girl,but as with many rescue dogs, she has some separation anxiety and that takes a special person to deal with sometimes.

A huge congratulations to Clyde (now Phoenix!) and his beautiful mom! This was one of the most amazing transformations I have seen!

What an absolute joy he is and what a great match they are! Sometimes good things come in senior packaging! Happy life you two!

Swiper
Swiper's foster to adopt home could not resist adopting sweet little Swiper! She came into the rescue unnamed and found in a retention pond with a non weight bearing injury in her back leg.

_JPG.jpg)
Congrats to our little guy Bravo, now Rayden, and his new family! Rayden and his brother Titan were instant best friends too! Happy life to this super cool family!
Bravo
Stella
Stella was so shut down we had to carry her to the car from the shelter. She wouldn't walk, out of fear. Stella and her father, Drago, were overdue to be euthanized by the time we knew about them. As a rescue, its scary to pull dogs with unknown history. You never know if there will be health or training issues that present themselves. These two stand as the most expensive dogs we have taken in. Sometimes they just need a chance with the right people.
Molly
Molly stole the hearts of her foster parents so quickly, there was no time to post her information for adoption. Congratulations Molly and Eddins family.
Belle & Noel
The Vandiver family have such big hearts. While picking up Belle as a foster to adopt they fell in love with Noel, and their house is now fur-ever happier by 8 paws!

She will live her happily furever north of the Mason-Dixon Line, where her first day in her new home she experienced snow. Congratulations to you both! May you bond quickly, strongly and forever!
Our hearts are broken that our beautiful Athena passed away January 2022
Shadow
Beautiful 1 year old Shadow is with her 'foster to adopt' family and now considered adopted. Congratulations to Shadow and her new family! Our foster families always have first choice on the dogs in their care. Shadow was fast to find her adoptive home!
Lincoln
Congratulations to our gorgeous Lincoln and his new best friend! What a dynamic duo don't you think? Lincoln will be enjoying the ocean life in his new forever home. I'm so happy that he will get to go to lots of places and experience all sorts of cool things. Happy forever Lincoln!
Gretta
Congratulations to Gretta on finding her forever home! She will be 2 years old in September, is spayed, vetted, and on heartworm and flea prevention. She is crate trained, house trained, and people friendly. She is selective with her animal friends so she will need to be an only pet. Recommend no small children. We wish Gretta much happiness in her new home!
Maggie
Huge congratulations to our sweet Maggie on finding her new family! Maggie is our girl that was hit by a car. She was adopted and returned 6 months later, by no fault of her own. She is a very shy and aloof girl and doesn't usually show well when first meeting people. I am forever thankful to all of our adopters, but especially the ones who adopt even when the dogs weren't perfect. I am so happy for Maggie and her new family. Wishing them a lifetime full of love and loyalty!
Liliana
Congratulations to our beautiful Liliana and her new family! I do believe she may end up being a water shepherd, how exciting! Have a happy life sweet girl!
