Tarzan

Gender: Male

Age: 7 years

Weight: 76 pounds

Species: Dog

Breed: Black Mouth Cur/Mix Brown

Orphaned Since: Aug. 29

Adoption Fee: $150

Tarzan is a strong, working-dog breed who's looking for his Jane. He is house trained, great on a leash, food and toy motivated and, believe it or not, a couch potato. Two things a prospective forever friend needs to know: He's a fence climber and he has allergies. He needs to take allergy medications his whole life, but that won’t stop him from being the best dog. Come visit me by making an appointment at www.spcaflorida.org/appointment.

Rocket

Gender: Male

Age: 1 year

Weight: 40 pounds

Species: Dog

Breed: Labrador Retriever-Black/Brown

Orphaned Since: Dec. 10

Adoption Fee: $250

Rocket is a 1-year-old mixed breed who scopes out the big picture before shedding his shy nature. Once he's comfortable with you, he'll add his two cents' (worth of treats) to the conversation. He's compatible with dogs and kids in their teens but please, no kitties. He's got a lot of spunk and is not great at sharing food or toys. He really needs that one family who’s ready to work with him. So make like a rocket and schedule a trip to see him at www.spcaflorida.org/appointment.
