We are a small private, volunteer only, pet rescue operation in Tampa Bay Florida. We have no buildings, no employees, no benefactors – just a handful of hardworking volunteers. We are always looking for foster homes, adopters and volunteers to help our cause. Our mission is to rescue, help, rehabilitate and re-home needy pets.

Hey there, I’m Scrappy and my name says it all! I’m a 6-year old terrier mix, weighing about 50 pounds and I’m an active dog with lots of energy. Before I was placed in a loving foster home, my former owner left me in the backyard all day long. That was so darn boring and lonely. I love people! I love to be cuddled and walked and generally paid attention to—I’m trying to make up for all the time I spent alone in that backyard.
Because I’ve got a lot of energy, it’s important for me to find a home with a fenced-in yard. I’m pretty chill around cats, and I might get along with another dog as long as it’s patient and can tolerate my high energy level. Kids ages 8+ would probably get along just great with me!
Please consider me! I promise that I will love you unconditionally for the rest of my life.

American Staffordshire Terrier Mix • St Petersburg, FL
4 years old • Male • Large • Black with White
Cheech came to us through a family he had lived with since he was a puppy. The household had a toddler and a baby born 1 month before they surrendered Cheech.
Cheech is a super-loving, and he just wants to be near his people all the time. Cheech enjoys his playtime and long walks. If he lived in an active household, he’d keep up just fine, but if the people he loves aren’t super-active, he will make himself comfortable.
Cheech is working through a panic disorder associated with separation anxiety. He is on an inexpensive medication which has stabilized his condition. He goes in his crate on his own now, both to nap and when told to before his people leave the house. Cheech would do best if he had either a fenced yard or was let out frequently on a leash.
