Avery male

2024-04-30

Location: Florida

Meet Avery, a very gorgeous young lady. Avery is 1 year old and wasn't very socialized as a youngster. She used to get overwhelmed very easily but has learned to bounce back quickly. She would do best in a calm, quiet home where someone works from home. She needs a little more help with potty manners, but what she lacks in perfect potty habits she makes up for in affection and sheer beauty. She is energetic, loves other dogs and is very athletic. She is extremely fast on her feet. She is good with both dogs and cats, kids unknown.

Colt male

2024-04-30

Location: Florida

A few months ago, Colt's owner tied him to a fence and walked away. Poor Colt was so confused when we met him and we took our time letting him settle in. Colt is good with cats and most small to medium sized dogs. He just needs time to get used to new canine pals. He is crate trained, loves to pile up toys and likes gentle pets. He is a slender, longer legged fella, around 16 pounds. He is about 1 year old. Colt is not comfortable around large breeds. He has not been around kids.

Baxter male

2024-04-30

Location: Florida

Baxter was surrendered to us on 01/01/2024. His owner passed away and the family took him to be euthanized because he had some medical issues and arthritis, and they had a small child. The vet refused, and rescues were contacted. We were the only rescue out of 15 that said YES to help Baxter. Baxter is about 16 pounds. He is almost fully housebroken. He is low key, but LOVES walks. He likes comfy large dog beds. He can be cuddly at times, other times he wants his space. He is okay with cats and gentle dogs. Baxter hates baths and will yowl, yowl, yowl - but he tries to keep himself super clean to avoid the mental anguish of a bath (his words, not mine!). Baxter is looking for a retirement home with lots of love, walkies and the occasional scrambled egg added in to his diet.

Duffy male

2024-04-30

Not Available!

Location: Florida

Duffy came to us as an Emergency case in January 2024. He is an owner surrender from a breeder in Central Florida. "Something" fell on his foot, which broke it, and the breeder was not able to get him veterinary care. Duffy came to us in South Florida within 2 days of his injury. He had pins put in his foot because so many of the bones were broken and mangled. We want to try to save the leg, so he had Orthopedic surgery. He is on recovery mode for up to 12 weeks now. His surgery cost $2,600 and he needs follow up exams, x-rays every 4 weeks, and weekly splint changes until he is fully healed.

Duffy is not eligible for adoption until his foot is healed, likely after April 2024. He weighs around 12 to 13 pounds, and VERY loving. Duffy is energetic (like a little tornado), loves dogs and is good with cats. Donations towards his care can be made at www.ratbonerescues.com.

Xavier male

2024-04-30

Location: Florida

Xavier was abandoned in a parking lot when his owners moved in 2023. He is very sweet and good with dogs his size, but it takes him time to get used to bigger dogs. He really wants to be around people, but it will take him a little bit of time to get used to new people. Xavier has some separation anxiety, so he'd LOVE a family who works from home. He is crate trained, but hates being in a crate; No apartments/condos for him. Xavier is 1 1/2 to 2 years old and weighs about 15 to 16 pounds.
