Sierra is HOME!!  Tom and Jacque felt it was time to adopt a fur baby having suffered the loss of their beloved pup Bella last fall. When they met Sierra, naturally it was love at first sight. Within a few days, they determined that given all she'd been through, including the loss of a leg, she should be named after their dear friend Rosie, who continues to show great courage in the face of her own adversity. We can't wait to hear updates about our special girl, who stole a lot of hearts while in PPR's care, including foster moms Becky, Kim and Deb, as well as Dr. Zern and the wonderful vet staff who showed such compassion for Sierra throughout surgery & recovery.

These two will surely have a wonderful time getting to know one another! Gail & Dean couldn't be happier to have a 2nd pup to spoil & we appreciate them choosing to adopt their newest furbaby. And thank you foster mom Christen for providing a temporary loving home to sweet Molly.

Angel is HOME!! Betty and Loretta are retirees who split their time between Virginia and The Villages. They have had many dogs through the years, each living a long, happy, full life. They felt certain Angel might be the perfect choice as their next forever pup. It didn't take but one look at her sweet face to know that this little Angel would make a wonderful companion. Angel is looking forward to seeing the sights when she travels to the beautiful Virginia mountains. Of course, she will no doubt have many wonderful experiences in her new community in sunny Florida as well. Thank you Betty & Loretta for choosing adoption. And thank you as always to foster mom Barb.

Honey is HOME!!  Zach was in just the right place to find the dog meant to share his busy life with him. He just happens to be a neighbor of one of PPR's awesome foster moms, Samantha, who just happened to be foster mom to Honey. This beautiful Shepherd mix won Zach's heart with her sweetness & he formally made her part of his life. She will make a wonderful companion for exercise or just hanging out. Samantha is happy too because she gets to visit her former foster girl whenever she wishes! Thank you Zach for choosing adoption and making Honey yours forever.

Barney is HOME!! Doris & Gary waited patiently for their forever pup. As Doris said, good things come to those who wait and Barney was well worth waiting for! Barney is this couple's pride and joy. He's already made himself right at home, relaxing with Gary & Doris, or sunning himself in the Florida room. Barney has also become the hit of the neighborhood, meeting lots of new friends on his daily strolls. This great little dog has found his forever home & will bring this couple wonderful couple years of joy. Thank you Doris & Gary and thank you foster mom Kelly!

Rolph is HOME!!  Janice is a retiree who splits her time between the Florida coast and North Carolina. She was very ready to add a little dog to her life & Rolph seemed like he would be a perfect companion. Rolph is such a good boy and is so happy that he gets a whole new lease on life! He wasn't sure what his future would hold but now that he has a great forever home with Janice, he can rest assured that it is going to be one big adventure from here on out! Thank you Janice for choosing adoption and thank you Marla for fostering little Rolph.

Bosco is HOME!! Little Bosco was one happy boy when he found out his new home would be with Judy! Judy just happened to know Bosco's foster mom Trina, so living with Judy meant that Bosco not only got a great new forever mom who would love him to pieces, but that he would also get regular visits from foster mom Trina. Bosco knew he hit the jackpot with this match! This little poodle boy is off to his new beginning with promises of awesome treats, fluffy soft beds and lots of belly. Thank you Judy for adopting your new family member and thank you Trina for being a super foster mom!

Jazz is HOME!!  Laura & Adam are an active couple with an even more active pup! One of their favorite activities is taking their dog Sydney to the dog park to play with her pup friends. That's where a chance meeting occurred between Sydney & Jazz. It must have been puppy love at first sight as these two pups played together for hours! Laura & Adam had been considering adopting a pup mate for Sydney so after leaving the park that day, they were convinced Jazz should be part of their family. We never tire of a good love story and this one definitely has a happy ending for Jazz and Sydney. Thank you Laura, Adam & Sydney for welcoming Jazz into your family. And thank you foster mom Priya for giving so much love, time & care to another wonderful dog.

Lola is HOME!! Mica came all the way from West Palm Beach to meet Lola. She said she spotted that face and fell instantly in love. Something in Lola's precious eyes told Mica that this was going to be her constant companion. Lola has so much to look forward to in the days & years ahead. Since Mica is a photographer, she will take Lola on photo shoots! Lola also gets to go along  when Mica visits friends and family. And best of all, Lola will get regular play dates with Mica's parent's dog, a little Maltese who is super excited about his new fur buddy! Thank you Mica for choosing to adopt and for giving Lola the amazing life she deserves. And thank you foster mom Mary for loving Lola first.

Peyton is HOME!! This beautiful lab girl has found her forever home, complete with acres of land to run, romp and play in.

This sweet, lovable girl will have what all active labs need.....plenty of land, safely fenced in, where she can get all the exercise she craves. Jonathan will supply the love and the wonderful home this sweet girl deserves. Thank you Jonathan for opening your heart and home to another dog to love.

Star is HOME!! Little Star is such a sweet girl & wanted a home where she'd be snuggled & given tons of attention. That's just the dog that Rebecca, David & Rebecca's mom Emily, were hoping to adopt. Star will have so many loving arms giving her snuggles & tummy rubs now that Emily lives with Rebecca & David. No doubt Star will soak up all that love, returning it with sweet puppy kisses & devotion. Emily especially wanted a little dog to love since loosing her beloved poodle last year. She is so happy that Star, now known as Goldie, is her new constant companion. Thank you Rebecca, David & Emily for choosing adoption.  Thank you foster mom Barb for all the love you gave Star while she waited for her forever home.

Dazzle is HOME!!  Dazzle was a terrified little fella when he came into foster care with Victoria and her family. This little guy needed patience, tlc, and time to grow to trust those around him. A very special bond was formed between Victoria's daughters Lia and Lucy, and Mr. Dazzle. They even renamed him Piggy because he hogs all their affection! What could be better for a scared little dog than 2 precious little girls who dote on him, take him everywhere they go, and simply love him to pieces. Piggy is shown here with foster mommies turned forever mommies Lia and Lucy, along with his new pup mate HunnyBunny. Thank you Victoria for allowing Dazzle to stay where he felt he was always home.

Cameron is HOME!! Nicole, Jon and their two young children were excited to adopt their first family dog. Little Cameron, with his sweet temperament and puppy energy, seemed like the right fit for a young, active family, so Nicole & Jon were eager to meet this sweetie! Naturally, it was a match as to meet Cameron is to love him! Nicole reports that the family simply adores their precious pup and he is settling in to the family routine. Cameron is a lucky little puppy to have a busy, energetic 10 year old boy to play with and a sweet little girl to cuddle with. Thank you Nicole & Jon for choosing to adopt your first pup & showing your children the joy that comes from giving an abandoned animal a forever home. And thank you foster mom Leigh for caring for Cameron until his perfect forever home came along.

One-eyed Jack (Jackson) is HOME!! Jackson was adopted by Tiffany, a wonderful gal who knows the importance of rescuing and is a dedicated PPR volunteer. Jackson was placed with Tiffany and her roommate as a foster pooch but his charm made it impossible for Tiffany to let him go! When we got Jack, he had to have his eye removed but that didn’t stop him from finding his way into Tiffany’s heart.  Jackson hit the Jackpot as he has the devotion of Tiffany, all her friends & a big extended family! Another “foster failure” and we couldn’t be happier!! Jackson too!!

Sophie is HOME!! Brittany dreamed of just one thing for Christmas and that was a precious pooch to love and care for. Little Sophie was searching for a home to call her own so the timing was just right. Brittany says it's the most magical Christmas she's ever experienced. Her love for Sophie was immediate, she was sure she'd never seen a more precious pup in her life. Brittany has a large extended family who are just as excited about the new family addition. This little pooch will be spoiled by aunts, uncles, and many fur cousins in all shapes and sizes! Thank you Brittany for choosing adoption and thank you Val for providing Sophie with a wonderful start in foster care.

Tyson is HOME!! Thomas & Lori know a thing or two about Jack Russell Terriers. In fact they are proud parents to two of these fun-loving pups, Kirby & Lila. These 2 dogs became instant friends with Tyson when Tyson was in foster care with Tiffany. The 3 pups must have created quite an elaborate scheme to ensure that Tyson became a permanent resident in their home. It didn't take a lot of convincing as Thomas & Lori, & their son Mike, agreed that Tyson belonged with their family. Tyson is such a cool dude who blends right in to his new forever family. How amazing that a "senior" dog gets to spend the next years of his life surrounded by so much love, with a big dose of fun thrown in? Thank you foster mom Tiffany for introducing Tyson to his forever family, & big thanks Thomas, Lori, Mike, Kirby & Lila!

Orville is HOME!! Melissa &  Hayden hoped for a dog to call their own & Orville just couldn't wait to have a boy as his best pal! What a perfect match for a boy & a dog!! Orville, who now goes by the name Finn, will be so loved by Melissa & Hayden. Hayden has already helped train several other family dogs so he is up for the challenge of teaching Finn good house manners, as well as a lot of cool tricks. Orville, nka Finn, is such a cool dog & already well on his way to being a superstar in the training department. That leaves lots of time for fetch, chase, & other fun games with Hayden. Thank you Melissa & Hayden for choosing to adopt your newest family member! We look forward to updates on the latest & greatest cool moves by Finn!

Hanna and Nikki are HOME!! Don & Louise missed the love a fur friend in their home. Their daughter in law Jenny contacted PPR asking about this sweet poodle pair for her in laws. As Jenny assured us, Don & Louise have a lot of love to give! They proved that by adopting not one, but both of these  precious pups. Hanna & Nikki have never known life apart from one another so we waited for a home just like this, with double the love! Reports so far are that the girls are settling in nicely to their forever home, complete with lots of extended family who visit for playtime. Thank you foster mom Sue & forever parents Don & Louise for this doubly delightful adoption!

Teddy is HOME!! This precious poodle boy got the opportunity of a lifetime when adopted by Fernando and Fernando's pup Biscuit. Tiny little Biscuit had recently lost his puppy brother Champers after a long life of 11 years together. Fernando missed having a second dog as well and hoped that Teddy could fill that void. Teddy couldn't have been happier to have a new dad who will cherish him forever and a fur brother who, well, loves him like a brother! What a great match and thank you Michelle for fostering Teddy till he was adopted by Fernando and Biscuit!

Walter is HOME! Kay and Jay & their twin girls Lydia & Melaina have rescued and adopted several dogs through the years. These animal lovers are also one of our wonderful foster families. They had the joy of becoming the foster family to precious little Walter. Walter just loved his new home with Kay & Jay, so much so that he made a pact with foster pup siblings Shelly & Landon that he'd be a good baby brother if they'd just help convince mom & dad to let him stay! It must have worked as Kay, Jay & the girls knew that Walter, now known as Harper, had to be a permanent family member. What a happy day for Walter when he got the great news that he was in his forever home & would be ringing in 2013 with his awesome new family.

Cali is HOME!! Brian, April and their 2 children are so excited to have Cali join their very busy family! This beautiful girl loves to play with her new buddy Rylan. Two year old Rylan is doing his very best to keep up with Cali and so far he's doing a pretty good job! April reports that Cali has made herself right at home with her new family and loves all her toys, especially the ones that she gets to play fetch or tug of war with. Cali loves her new family so much. She feels so special that they chose her to be their adopted furever buddy. Thank you April and Brian for choosing adoption and thank you foster mom Sissy for all you do for the pups in your care.

Bear is HOME!! Alyson, David and their son felt the time was right to add a dog to their home! We know nothing completes a family like the addition of a pet, preferably one as adorable as Bear! Bear loves to play so he’ll surely keep his new human buddy busy with games of fetch and tug of war! Thank you Alyson and David, and your son, for providing this young pup with the forever happy home he dreamed of. And thank you Cristen for being an awesome foster mom!

Elfi is home!! We adopted Elfi to Heather, Joe and their two children Annie and David. This is a home so full of love and Elfi will receive plenty of it! Heather home schools her children so Elfi will have plenty of potty breaks while the children step outside for fresh air, to stretch their legs and play with Elfi. This pup needs lots of activity and these two children are going to keep Elfi happy, busy and tired! Thank you Deb for fostering this little girl and thank you Heather, Joe, Annie and David for rescuing her!

Linky Loo is Home!! He has joined the ranks of those lucky pups that go into foster care and never leave! Jill & Sylvia applied to be foster parents to a dog needing temporary shelter.  Linky needed lots of TLC & Sylvia was just the person to provide him with some much needed love & lap time. So, as the story goes, Linky was in foster care just long enough to call himself a permanent family member. Linky's foster home became his forever home! Thank you Sylvia, Jill, Fred & fur brother Scrappy Doo for being rescue heroes!

Buffy is HOME!! Dewey and Janet applied to PPR to adopt a dog, shortly after losing their beloved MollyB due to Cushings disease. MollyB was the best dog imaginable and while Dewey and Janet initially thought they would adopt a young dog, they spotted beautiful Buffy & felt she needed them the most. Sweet Buffy, at 10 years old & with vision issues, might be considered less adoptable than the spunky young dogs. Nevertheless, something told them that Buffy deserved a wonderful forever home for Christmas so they wasted no time meeting foster mom Jacky to make the adoption final. Buffy had the good fortune of not only being loved by Jacky, but now by her forever parents Dewey & Janet. They plan to make every day seem like Christmas for this sweet girl. Jacky, Dewey & Janet are true rescue angels and we thank you for your amazing devotion to beautiful princess Buffy.

Mabel is HOME!! Salina had been hoping to find a precious little companion to love and spoil. Choosing rescue was the only way to go for Salina as she hoped a little pup in need would find comfort in Salina's home. Salina chose Mabel and it seems that Mabel was just waiting for her forever mom to arrive. Mabel must have known that this was the start of something very special as she eagerly went to new mom Salina, letting her know she was ready to start their exciting new journey together. Thank you so much Salina and thank you foster mom Janeen for all the love you gave Mabel in foster care.

Lucky is HOME!! His name says it all because Lucky was chosen to be the newest member of this awesome human and dog family. Torey, William & Zach love dogs & with 2 pups already in the home, a third would round things out nicely! Pups Buffy and Kirby were happy to share their space with another fur brother.  Zach is so excited to have a dog to call his own & Kirby is super stoked to have a pup mate to play with. Mr. Lucky has many adventures awaiting him with his forever family, including trips to the family beach condo. Yes, Lucky is very lucky & he deserves every bit of the good life ahead. Thanks Torey, William & Zach for choosing adoption. And thanks once again to foster mom Rose.

Cupid is HOME!! Karla and her children have always loved their cats, as well as the little rabbit in residence! Adding a pooch to the mix seemed like the next best step. Karla was fortunate to be friends with PPR foster mom Kelly, who just happened to be fostering the sweet and adorable little Cupid. It didn't take long for Karla to realize that she would love to add Cupid to her family. Karla's son and daughter were eager for their newest rescue pet as well. Cupid is doing well in her new home, loving all the humans who are spoiling her just as she deserves. Thanks Kelly and Karla for making sure this wonderful pup has her wonderful forever home.

Bebe is HOME!!  Ben and Joyce are snow birds who enjoy splitting their time between Michigan and sunny Florida. They have a large extended family, including their daughter Patti, who enjoys the snowbird life as well! This large family wanted to make Bebe a part of their lives, giving her more love than she could ever imagine. Bebe will have Ben, Joyce, Patti, and many other siblings, grandchildren and even great grandchildren adoring her. Not to mention a few fur cousins for regular play dates. Thank you so much Ben & Joyce for adding Bebe to your loving family. And thank you foster mom Vicki for loving another sweet dog in your care. 

Cuddles is HOME!! Kimberly applied to PPR asking to foster an older dog, one who might not be as adoptable as the young pups. She was open to taking in any dog that needed her most. Little Cuddles is a senior lady who also happens to be blind. Kimberly didn't bat an eye at Cuddles special needs. She made sure that Cuddles felt loved and welcomed in her home. Kimberly and her young daughter didn't ask for "perfect" but as it turned out, Cuddles is perfect. Perfect for this family that is. Cuddles joins her lovable Doberman sister and several cats. This foster to forever story is one that makes us all smile and realize that every little dog deserves a second chance. Thank you so much Kimberly!

Yogi is HOME!! Tisha & Sam love dogs and were super excited to adopt an active, fun loving pooch to join their family. Their current dog Morgan is a sweet laid back senior girl who loves everyone she meets, both people and pups alike.  Lucky little Yogi is all settled in to his new forever home, and Tisha reports that he is becoming Morgan's new 4-legged best pal. And how cool is it that Tisha loves to go jogging so Yogi gets tons of exercise! Then when he gets home all tuckered out, he gets to chill with sweet pup sister Morgan. Thank you so much Tisha & Sam for choosing adoption! Big thanks to foster mom Terri for providing another dog a wonderful temporary home.

Pepe is HOME!! Carol and Leon have loved two little pommies in the past, the last one being their beloved AJ who passed away in February. They weren't sure they were ready to adopt again but when they saw Pepe's face, well, that everything changed! He melted their hearts & Carol was certain he needed to be with them to celebrate this Christmas and many more to come. Pepe already has a new jacket, rhinestone collar and bright red harness. We bet he has a lot of toys too, not to mention a stocking ready to be filled on Christmas Eve. Thank you Carol and Leon for giving this precious little fella a wonderful forever home and thanks foster mom Kathy for all you did for Pepe while he was in your care.

Ponki is HOME!! It's smiles all around for Carl, Ruth and the oh so adorable Ponki! This bundle of joy has found his forever home just in time to watch the tree go up, and smell the awesome scents coming from the kitchen! Wow, what perfect timing for this awesome pup! Carl and Ruth have already reported that Ponki has made himself right at home and they simply adore him. We suspect Santa will be extra generous to Ponki this year. After all, Ponki has been such a good boy, his foster mom Amanda just adored him, and now he shows his gratitude to Carl and Ruth everyday with extra sloppy kisses & tail wags. Thanks Carl and Ruth for adopting Ponki & making his dreams of a safe, secure forever home come true.

Lady is HOME!! Linda and Phyllis loved their shih Tzu  Harpo, who passed away in September. Harpo lived a long, happy 15 years  with Linda and Phyllis. These ladies weren't used to having a home without dogs so made the decision to adopt a dog they could love just as they loved all their previous dogs. Lady has now gone home with Linda and Phyllis where she will be the lucky recipient of all that adoration. Lady is thrilled to be the one and only fur member of the family as that means more treats, pets, walks and play time! Thank you Phyliis and Linda for choosing adoption when adding a pup to your home. And thank you Faith for your devotion to Lady while she was in your care.

Sonny is Home! Little Sonny came into PPR care after being abandoned by his previous owner. He was almost instantly scooped up by Angela as he seemed to be exactly the right fit for her home. Angela had been looking for a small dog to adopt, a little fella who would be a wonderful companion for both herself and her mom. Angela fell in love with Sonny and knew he would make a perfect little lap dog for her mom.  Sonny is one of those pups who didn't ask for much, just a pair of arms to hold him close, keeping him safe and secure. Thank you Angela for giving this little guy all he ever wanted, a warm home to call his own.

Oliver is HOME!! Christine is settled into her new home and job so the timing was just right to add a 4 legged friend! She loves the terrier breeds and was sure Oliver would be a wonderful match to her lifestyle. Oliver is super happy to be in a home where he gets a lot of exercise and a lot of opportunities to play with other pups on regular outings to nearby parks. As this picture shows, he's quite the man about town! Thank you Christine for choosing to adopt a dog and for providing this sweet boy with a forever home.

Snuggles is HOME!!  Just as his name implies, Snuggles has snuggled his way into his forever home. He's got a wonderful new set of parents, Pat and Richard, and an adorable fur sister named Daisy, who welcomed Snuggles with open paws! Daisy is a rescued pup too, so she's happy to share her home with another dog needing the safety, security and devotion of a good family. She knows Pat and Richard have enough love for both her and Snuggles. And hey, she thinks Snuggles is kinda cute so it's all good! Thank you Pat, Richard & Miss Daisy for adding another rescue to the home. And thanks foster mom Katina for bringing this great match together.

Sal is HOME!! Peri missed the joy of a little dog to come home to after work. Her 2 pug pups, Posey and Pal, passed away a while back, and she felt the time was right to adopt a new companion. Peri is a new resident of Florida, having moved from Massachusetts where she was active in fostering for a rescue group there. She knows first-hand what wonderful pets a rescued dog can be. Sal, with his big soulful eyes & his happy go lucky spirit, stole Peri's heart! He's such a lovable fella and is even happier that his forever mom found him just in time to ring in a new year. Thank you Peri for choosing adoption and thank you foster mom Cynthia, you rock!

Adele is HOME!! Rene' and Ray are part of the club whose motto is "two dogs double your fun"! This family recently adopted Hallee from PPR, knowing that they wanted to give her a fur sibling to grow up with. Once they got Halle settled into their home, they inquired about Adele, hoping she would be a good match for them and for Halle. All seems to be just right in this newly expanded family of five. Rene', Ray and their 7 year old son love having these 2 fur bundles to play with. And these pup sisters will surely become best friends forever, providing their family with many years of unconditional puppy love, not to mention hours of entertainment! Thank you rescue angels Rene' and Ray for adopting 2 pups and changing their lives forever. Big thanks as well to Johana for being such a wonderful foster mom to Adele.

Panda is HOME!!  Sandra & David are active retirees who love sharing their lives with their pup Casey. Casey goes everywhere with them so it made sense to bring a furry friend along for the adventures. Sandra fell in love with Panda & was hopeful Panda would want to come along for the ride...literally, in their RV! This couple & their pup spend part of the year on the road. It's a great life & Panda will be spoiled right along with Casey. Panda couldn't imagine a better way to spend her retirement years than seeing the USA. Thank you Sandra, David & Casey for welcoming Panda into your home. Special thanks to foster mom Jacky who literally saved this pup's life with her care & love. You are all rescue angels!

Bellita and Eli are HOME!! Julie and Jimmy are animal lovers and rescue volunteers. They also happen to be one of PPR's most wonderful foster families. Both Bellita and Eli were placed into foster care with Julie, Jimmy, their son and their other pets. The mix was just so right that both of these precious pups were never going to have to move again. Julie realized very quickly that both Eli and Bellita had stolen a piece of her heart. These lucky pups join fur siblings Sassy and Keifer, rounding out the mix of dogs in Julie's home. We are so grateful to Julie and Jimmy for being rescue angels to so many animals, including pups, cats and horses alike. And the animals you save thank you as well.

Robbie is HOME!!  This wonderful dog drew the winning lottery ticket when he was adopted by Lisa, Eric and their 3 children! This young, adorable pup wasn't picky but hey, when he heard he was meeting this awesome family, he did all he could to win their hearts.  It definitely worked for him and now this lucky pup has a forever mom & dad, and those really cool humans Tyler, Samantha, & Ryan to play with him. We at PPR, along with Robbie are so grateful to this family for saving a dog & giving him such a great life of love and joy! Thank you foster mom Priya for fostering this sweet pup.

Porkchop is HOME!!  Tara and Bryant were ready for another dog to love following the passing of their big dog Bear and the not so big dog Chico. This couple has rescued a Huskey and a chihuahua so it's all about giving a dog in need a forever home. Tara contacted us to say that Porkchop's eyes had melted her heart & she knew she they were the home to love him forever. When an adopter feels that connection, there is no looking back. Tara & Bryant adopted PC & will make sure the story his eyes tell will be one of joy, love & devotion. Thank you Tara & Bryant for choosing rescue. Big thanks to Jennifer who loved & spoiled Porkchop in foster care.

Halle is HOME!! Ray, Rene' & their young son recently lost both of their dogs to complications of old age. Both dogs were rescue pups this family took in & loved for many years. They felt ready to adopt another dog to love.  It's been a while since they had a puppy in the home but that energy & silliness is just what this family needed! And what 7 year old boy doesn't want a puppy to play with & teach lots of cool tricks? Halle will be showered with attention, love, & she promises to shower her forever family with puppy kisses & adoration! Thank you Ray & Rene' for choosing adoption. And thank you foster mom Terri for all the TLC you provided Halle.

Skipper is HOME!!  Kay and Russell LOVE yorkies, so much so that they asked if they could foster teeny tiny Skipper (all 3 and 1/2 pounds of him) when he was brought into PPR care. We readily said yes as Kay and Russell are former PPR adopters, with a grand total of 4 pups who would readily welcome Skipper into their fold. As the story goes, within a week Skipper no longer had a foster home, but a forever home with Kay, Russell, Nemo, Peanut, Beemer and Bella! He even has a new name, Piper! Piper loves his new family and his family loves him. Thank you Kay and Russell for falling in love with Piper and giving him a safe, secure and loving home to call his own.

Ivy is HOME!!  Ivy didn't have to go far or wait very long to find her forever home. She was already there from the time Paula took her into foster care. Paula is one of our wonderful foster moms & former PPR adopters. She adopted theblue eyed Mr. Wyatt last year, joining Shih Tzu brother Luca. These two pups are so grateful for all they have that they willingly share their space & their mom's love with other pups who come into foster care. Ivy was welcomed into the home with open arms....and wagging tails, and within a few days Paula knew that this little sweetheart had found a forever home. Paula now has a teensy little girl to spoil right along with the boys! Thank you Paula, Wyatt and Luca for welcoming Ivy into your lives. She will be forever grateful!

Journey is HOME!! Ruth applied to adopt a pup who would be her loving companion, even a dog who was a few years older, that was OK with her. Journey has the most beautiful eyes that simply look into your soul. He stole Ruth's heart with his easy going temperament, laid back personality and overall peacefulness. This pup came to PPR very shy and scared. It will take time for him to come out of his shell but with Ruth he will learn to trust, and we are sure his prior fears will finally fade so he can just be a dog, safe and secure. Updates from Ruth have been super positive. His new name is now Scooter and Ruth reports that every day they make a little more progress! Thank you Ruth for giving this middle aged dogs a brand new beginning. And thanks Michelle for caring for and fostering this sweet pup.

Boo is HOME!!  Laura and her mom Margaret have several pets between them and Boo is now another lucky member of this extended family of humans and pups! She joins her new moms, Laura's children, as well as pup siblings Carlie and Arlie. Boo will never lack for companionship in her new home as most of her time will be spent with Margaret, who is retired. Little Boo has a wonderful life ahead of her, being the recipient of so much love. Thank you Margaret and Laura for choosing to rescue all your pets. And thank you foster mom Stephanie for giving Boo her fresh start in foster care.

Reuben is HOME!!  Denise & Gabe, along with their 2 young children, were looking forward to adding a pup to their family. The adorable Reuben caught their eye as it seemed he was just the one for them! Reuben was 100% up to the task of being this family's first dog, even promising to love them unconditionally forever. That's the wonderful thing about dogs, they love back just as they are loved. With 4 devoted family members to play, pet, and snuggle with him, Reuben will forever show his gratitude with tail wags, sloppy kisses & games of fetch. Thank you so much Denise & Gabe for choosing to adopt your newest family member. What a wonderful gift for your children & for  Reuben. Thanks as well to foster mom Victoria for providing a wonderful temporary home for Reuben on his way to his forever family.

Chelsea is HOME!! Connie applied to adopt a pooch who loves children, other dogs and would love HER! We knew that could be arranged & since Chelsea loves children, pups of all sizes, & especially her "person", Chelsea was naturally the perfect match for Connie. Any dog lucky enough to go home with Connie has a lifetime of spoiling ahead! Connie was a dog groomer for many years & always had dogs in her home. Since the loss of her beloved lab, it took awhile to adopt again, but she realized the time was finally right & Chelsea was the right fit. This lucky pup gets Connie as forever mom as well as a wonderful extended family of granddaughters, grandsons & grand-dogs who already adore her! Thank you Connie for giving Chelsea, now known as Gracie, so much to be grateful for. And thank you foster mom Priya, you are a rescue angel.

Jetta is HOME!! Barbara was terribly sad since the loss of her Chihuahua, her precious dog who was a part of her life for over 12 years. Her pup was her constant companion so Barbara knew it was the right decision to adopt another little dog who needed her love. Barbara has a large extended family, including many grand and great  grandchildren, who are all excited to shower Jetta with love!  Sweet Jetta soaks up attention so the more arms to snuggle, the better to her. Jetta is the sweetest little girl who loves to dance for treats, loves to play dress up, and absolutely adores a warm snuggle with her people! Thank you so much Barbara for opening your heart to another pup. Hopefully Jetta will be just the girl to bring a big smile to your face. And thank you foster mom Sherry, and your boys, for spoiling little Jetta while she was in your home.

Miley is HOME!!  Rachel and her pup Tank (all 14 pounds of him!) lucked into an introduction of Miley when visiting Miley's foster mom Molly. Molly just happens to be Rachel's friend so simply put, this little foster pup was in the right spot at the right time! What a lucky break for Miley who didn't have to wait long to go from foster to forever home. Once Rachel met this sweet little girl, she was sure Miley would be a great addition to her life, as well as give Tank a lively little fur sister to play with. This is such a great fit for Miley and we are so grateful to foster mom Molly for being matchmaker for Tank and Miley! And thank you forever mom Rachel for being a rescue angel.

Chloe is HOME!!  Sweet little Chloe just wanted a mommy to be her constant companion. Martha has the time, and an abundance of love, to give a small dog, making this a perfect match. Martha's wonderful extended family, including her 11 children, came together to help their mom adopt a gentle companion, a little dog she could love and spoil. Chloe is the lucky recipient of all that love and much, much more. She has the devoted attention of Martha as well as the many, many family members who visit. There are children of all ages, and many dog cousins ready and eager to dote on Chloe. We are so grateful that this little one, with her sweet gentle soul, is surrounded by so much love. Thank you Martha, and daughters Mary and Barbara, for giving this pup such a bright future.

Royce is HOME!! Stella & Jason hoped to adopt a super little dog who would be best buds to their adorable son & daughter. This family of 4 is now a complete family of 5 with the addition of Royce, one of the happiest little pups we've ever met! This young dog will surely provide lots of laughs & silly entertainment for all his family members. And these lucky children will learn how awesome raising a rescue dog can be. Thank you Stella & Jason for your support of rescue & offering sweet Royce a forever home. Thank you foster mom Rose for being Royce's first stop on his way to his forever happy life.

Franklin is HOME!! Franklin made sure that when foster mom Arielle brought him to her home that he did all the right things to win her heart. No way was this smart little pooch gonna let this wonderful mom be anything but his mom forever. They say that dogs choose their owners and that's what Franklin did. Arielle was totally on board with that decision as well. All it took was a few days with Franklin, her very first foster pup, and well, you know the rest! Arielle knew she was the best forever mommy for this pup so Franklin officially went from foster pup to forever pup. We love these stories because we know that our fosters make amazing dog owners. Hooray for Franklin who's life went from rags to riches when Arielle's volunteer spirit became a lifetime of love.

Luke is HOME!!  James & Carolina love their dog Gordo, & equally loved their sweet dog Emma who recently passed away. This couple wanted a little buddy for Gordo so they applied to meet Luke, one of the sweetest pups we've ever met. Little Luke didn't have to work hard to win the hearts of James & Carolina. All he had to do was be himselfas that in itself is simply irresistible. Their little family is complete once again & best of all, pup Gordo has a new bud to pal around with doing all those fun doggy things that dogs like to do! Thanks so much Carolina & James for adding a rescue pooch to your home. Thanks as well to foster mom Barb who loved little Luke like her own. 

Austin is HOME!!  Stacey &  John missed the joy of a little dog greeting them when they came through the door. Their dog of 12 years recently passed away & Stacey felt she was ready to adopt another fur baby she could snuggle & spoil rotten! Austin loves to snuggle & he never fails to greet you with a happy dance! This little guy just wanted the security of a forever home which he finally has with his new mom & dad. Austin is super grateful & will show his new family daily with his loyalty & devotion. Thank you Stacey & John for adopting Austin, who needed your love. Thank you Kim & Ron for fostering Austin Puppers till his wonderful forever family came along.

Frenchie is HOME!!  Julie & Michael experienced a tough loss when their beloved rescue dog Sophie passed away much too soon. The pain of losing Sophie was so great, but Julie felt her heart would heal best by giving another needy dog a home. Frenchie is so beautiful & so loving that she simply stole Julie's heart at first glance. Julie & Michael adopted Frenchie & now report that Frenchie just might love daddy Mike the best.....perhaps because he sneaks her treats! Thank you so much for allowing your hearts to be open to another dog who needed your special brand of unconditional love. And thanks to awesome foster mom Collette for welcoming Frenchie into your home.

Hailey is HOME!!  Patricia and Scott have always loved their labs, and they have had quite a few through the years, all wonderful rescues. Their chocolate lab Cole had recently passed away at the ripe old age of 14 years. Pat and Scott missed their beloved dog so much and the house felt so empty without a big four legged, tail wagging fur baby to greet them every day after work. Hailey is such a fun loving, sweet girl and she needed a home where she could get a lot of time and attention from her people. Pat and Scott can definitely provide that and a whole lot more! This lovable big dog will be spoiled and loved all the days of her life. Thank you so much Patricia and Scott for giving Hailey her forever home filled with love.

Riley is HOME!!  Dawn and Chuck missed having a dog in their lives and wanted to give an abandoned dog a second chance at a forever home. The lucky recipient of all their love is Riley, who is just overjoyed that she is finally "home". This sweet pup was left at the shelter through no fault of her own. When Dawn and Chuck came along to offer her love and security, she loved them right back with the unconditional love that only a dog can give. Now that she's living in The Villages, we have no doubt that this pup has many new friends, both 4 and 2 legged, who give Miss Riley their love, belly rubs, and yummy treats. Thank you Dawn and Chuck for adding Riley to your lives. And thank you Tina for fostering this sweet pup.

Denny is HOME!! Tanya & Tom are two of our amazing repeat PPR adopters! And we're not just talking once or twice, but now a third lucky pooch has found a forever home with this awesome couple! As the proud parents of PPR dogs Morrie & Hermes, as well as their other pooch Zeus, Denny joins a crew of lively, playful pups. It's the perfect fit for Denny who absolutely Loves to play! This little guy has enough fur siblings to keep him busy sunup to sundown. And he has 2 adoring parents who will dote on him just as they do their other 3 pooches. Thank you so much Tanya & Tom, you are our rescue heroes!!  And thank you foster parents Rebecca & Kevin for loving your little man Denny till the perfect forever home chose him.

Rasta is HOME!!  Rasta the pom danced his way into the hearts of Rita & John, two semi-retirees who absolutely love their dogs! Their current pack comes in all shapes & sizes so Rasta will blend right in with the pups, both large & small. Tiffy, their tiny Maltese was a bit out sized next to her retriever & heeler siblings so a tiny pommie is a welcomed addition! Every dog in this house has his or her own bed but they get to share a big fenced yard, not to mention the love of their wonderful mom & dad. We're so happy sweet Rasta has a forever home with Rita, John & fur siblings Tia, Lady & Tiffany. And big thanks to foster mom Sandy for always going the extra mile for the pups in your care.

Lacey is HOME!!  Jill and Shadi wanted to bring a puppy into their family and explored the idea of adoption. They thought, surely there were puppies that needed good homes. Jill contacted PPR, hopeful that Lacey would be a good match for their home. This tiny, active puppy needed dedicated parents who would teach her all the basic skills to become a well-mannered little lady. Of course, she needed tons of love too and these were all the things that Jill and Shadi could provide. They are overjoyed to be Lacey's new parents and look forward to years and years filled with silly puppy antics, not to mention the unconditional love that only a pooch can give.  Thank you Jill and Shadi for choosing adoption and thank you so much foster mom Misty. You and your family were key in giving this precious pup such a great start to her forever happy beginning.

Sasha is HOME!!  Fred and Teresa are dog lovers who know the joys of having 2 dogs in the home. They were without a buddy for Jack, their precious one eyed Shih Tzu they had rescued from a shelter. Jack needed a special "lady" in his life and Sasha, the sweet, well-mannered belle that she is, surely would be perfect lifelong companion. She was especially excited to meet her new beau Jack because he's such a handsome dude after all. This pair are becoming fast friends and Fred and Teresa now have their family complete. Thank you so much to this wonderful couple for being rescue angels to your beloved pups. And thank you foster mom Victoria for loving Miss Sasha before she found her forever family home with Teresa and Fred.

Coco is HOME!! Sweet Coco was chosen by Saronda, Brian & Taylor following a family decision to adopt a furry friend. They hoped Coco would be a wonderful addition to the family. Coco is sweet, a bit shy & needs a calm, easy going family to make her feel safe, just what this family could provide. Taylor was so excited to meet Coco, hopeful that Coco would love their family & "choose" them just as they chose Coco. Lucky Coco gets to sleep with Taylor, how cool is that! Thank you Taylor for choosing to adopt your pup! And thanks Priya for being a wonderful foster mom to Coco.

Cujo is HOME!!  Deborah and Chuck lost their beloved pup Blake following a series of tough illnesses. Blake's presence was missed in the home and especially with Cooper, their fun loving golden doodle. Chuck and Deborah figured what would be better than adding a little dog to pal around with a big dog? That's when Cujo came along and filled the void. Cujo is happy to finally be home after a rough road that included a stop at a shelter. This sweet boy just wanted someone to care for him completely and love him unconditionally. That's just what Deborah and Chuck are prepared to do. Thank you to this couple for opening their hearts to another pup. And thank you Diane for fostering Cujo during his stay with PPR.

Skippy is HOME!!  All of our adopters have big hearts; after all they provide homes to homeless pups. But Marie & Erich struck us as extra special because having just lost their beloved Shih Tzu Jaffe after battling many chronic conditions, they were open & willing to adopting a dog who might have a few extra needs. Skippy touched their hearts as he reminded them so much of Jaffe. Skippy has found his angels who will provide for all his needs but just as importantly, they will give him all the love he craves. He's an amazing dog who found his oh so amazing forever family. Marie will surely stock up on green beans, Skippy's favorite treat! OK, so maybe he'd rather have bacon but he'll dance & twirl for a bean too!! Thank you Marie & Erich, you are true rescue angels. And thank you so much foster mom Terri. Skippy misses you but thanks you for giving him his great start to his amazing years ahead.

Cody is HOME!!  Amy, Joe & Julia are repeat adopters from PPR, something we love! If you look closely at this picture you will recognize the "little" puppy Olivia who was adopted by this family last year. Now full grown, Olivia needed a furry playmate & Cody was the perfect fit! These two big, happy dogs are already best buds, with Olivia showing Cody all the cool sniffing spots outside & snuggly beds inside! Thank you to this wonderful family for adopting your pets & giving them loving, safe forever homes. And thanks foster mom Tiffany for taking on the fun of this big, loveable dog.

Ryder is HOME!! Lynn was grieving the loss of her wonderful pup MacDuff, a dog she adopted & adored until he passed away from cancer. MacDuff left a legacy of love that allowed Lynn to open her heart to another homeless dog. Like many adopters, Lynn had the capacity to love again. Ryder is so grateful Lynn chose him & will surely take up loving his forever mom just as MacDuff did before him. Ryder gets to go to work with Lynn every day at her gift shop so he's practicing his role as official greeter. Thank you Lynn for adopting Ryder & thank you Julie for giving another lucky dog a stop at Julie's amazing foster home!

Amos is HOME!!  Christine is mom to a wonderful Schnauzer boy named Joey. Joey is getting up in years, 15 to be exact, & Christine thought it was time to add a younger pup to the family. Little Amos is such a ball of adorableness that Christine found him irresistible. He's a smart boy too who will surely eagerly learn the house rules from big brother Joey. Christine met Amos & there was an immediate connection. This little guy fell asleep in Christine's daughter's arms, a true testament to a dog who feels safe & secure. Thank you Christine for adopting another dog who needed a forever home. And big thanks to Ruthie, foster mom extraordinaire.

Tate is HOME!!  Once again a PPR dog hit the foster family jackpot! What could be better than being loved so much by your "temporary" family that they adopt you, making you theirs forever? That's just what happened for Tate, who came to PPR shy & scared, but was lucky enough to be embraced by Susan & Jay & their children. Not only that, Tate joined pups GeeGee, Sophie & Rex, rounding out a full house of human & furry love! Tate stole this family's hearts & they couldn't imagine saying good bye. That was A-OK with Tate! He didn't want to go & is absolutely thrilled that he's home forever. Thank you Susan  & Jay for loving this pup forever. 

Choxie is HOME!! This teeny, tiny bundle of love is off to his new home with Rachel and Charles. Choxie captured Rachel's heart and she couldn't wait to meet this adorable little peanut. This couple enjoys the outdoors and staying active so Choxie is raring and ready to keep up with his proud new forever mom and dad. The good news is that when he wears out, he's just tiny enough to be scooped up and tucked into a sling or simply a set of ready arms. This tiny boy also has a Very big brother to keep up with now. Lab brother Jasper promises to take it easy on the new kid and show Choxie all the ropes. Thank you Rachel for reaching out to adopt this little pup and add him to your pack. And thank you foster mom Vicki. You were wonderful with this little guy and he will never, ever forget you. 

Buster is HOME!! Sandra spotted Buster and knew it was true love. You see, Sandra lost her sweet boy Spike about a year ago and she wasn't sure she could possibly ever love a dog again as Spike was her rock through some mighty tough life events. Fortunately, Sandra's son encouraged her to open her heart to another little dog, maybe even another min pin like Spike. She agreed and the timing couldn't have been better for Buster. He's an adorable, funny, loveable dude who was just meant to be in his forever home with Sandra. This little guy has already brought laughter and joy back in the home, and Sandra is just sure that Spike approves of his mom's choice. Sandra, we are so grateful that you decided to give a homeless dog a new chance at a great life. And thank you foster mom Angela for giving this pup a loving foster home.

Daisy is HOME!!  Beautiful Daisy needed a calm home where she would get a lot of attention. Thankfully Helen stepped in to adopt this sweet pup, ready and eager to give her as much TLC as Miss Daisy can stand! Helen is retired so any dog she adopted would get tons of attention, but with the understanding that time & love must be shared with Helen's sweet pup Leo. According to Helen these 2 pups are getting along famously, following one another through the house, cozying up on her bed and generally becoming best buds. Thank you Helen for adding another sweetheart to your home and thanks to Leo for being an awesome brother. Big thanks as always to foster mom Barb for once again opening your home to a needy dog.

Bentley is HOME!! A chance meeting became a new beginning for little Bentley. This fluffy poodle boy was enjoying an outdoor festival with his foster mom while also making quite an impression on the crowd around him. This little guy made such an impression on Mario and Joy that as soon as they returned home to Miami, they inquired about adopting Bentley. The smile on new Dad Mario's face says it al! He loves his awesome little buddy, as does new Mommy Joy. Bentley is surely soaking up the good life in the Miami sunshine. Thank you fosters Kellie and Tomi for helping make this wonderful adoption complete.

Emmy is HOME!! Emmy, now known as Ruthie, is finally just where she was always meant to be....in her foster turned forever home with Theresa, David and their children Jacob, Tonia and Mia. Not only is Ruthie surrounded by all this human love, she also has 4 furry siblings to run, play and snuggle with. Could this be doggie heaven? Ruthie thinks so! Thank you so much to this wonderful family who stepped up to provide temporary shelter to dogs seeking a forever home. And as sometimes happens when a dog goes into foster care, he or she steals the human's hearts and never leaves. That's OK with us because we know our fosters love their pups to pieces. We couldn't be happier that Ruthie is home forever and surrounded in all this abundance of love. 

Dominic is HOME!! Sweet Dominic is the happiest little pup on earth today as he settles into his wonderful forever home with Grace, Walter & pup brother Benjie. Grace & Walter are repeat adopters from PPR, having adopted Benjie a year ago. Benjie kept pestering his parents to give him a brother so that's just what Grace & Walter decided to do! He is super happy to share the love, & his cozy space, with Dominic. Thanks so much Grace & Walter for opening your hearts to another little dog. And thank you foster mom Sam for the tlc you provided little Dom when he came to you.

Hank is HOME!! Carlos and his son Jared share a common interest in their love for dogs. Carlos has rescued all his dogs in the past and is passing along his deep compassion for abandoned animals to young Jared. Jared wanted to adopt a dog in need, one that he could nurture and love forever. Little Hank was the perfect fit for this family as he will get all the tlc he needs to be healthy, happy and adored. Hank joins his pup brothers Bastian & Cooper who are now his protective companions. Carlos reports that Hank has already found a cozy spot in Jared's bed each night. What a wonderful life ahead for this boy and his dog! Thank you Carlos, Jared and foster mom Rose for the new beginning you have each given this precious pup.

 
Katie Bug is Home!! Elizabeth and Jeff love dogs, big and small. And they have big hearts for rescues. Elizabeth and Jeff felt that Katie Bug, with her big heart and happy doggy smile, would make a wonderful addtion to their home. Flash, their big chocolate lab, agreed that a pup mate would be a nice idea and he'd gladly share his space, fluffy beds and big fenced yard with his new furry sister. It's going to be a great life for Katie! She gets to enjoy lizard chasing, games of fetch and nice long walks with her new wonderful family. Thank you Elizabeth and Jeff for adding Katie Bug to your lives. And thank you foster mom Sissy for rescuing another deserving dog. 

Ajax is HOME!! Kim and Scott enjoy the outdoors, in fact they spend most of their time enjoying nature with their pups along for the adventures. Lucky little Ajax joins this active couple and their 2 dogs Nahla and Molly. Nahla, who is a young Chihuahua pooch, wanted a buddy to race around and be silly with. She defiantly met her match with Ajax as they have become best friends forever. And when the antics are over and they are fully worn out, these 2 pups snuggle up for a long comfy snooze. Thank you so much Kim and Scott for rescuing another pack member. Ajax sure appreciates being part of the fun! And thank you foster dad Diego for giving this pup his fresh start!

Summer is HOME!! Erin and Dave adore their big dog Lexi and wanted to adopt a friend for her, as well as another furry companion for themselves. Summer is such a great fit for this family, who will enjoy long, lively walks with their 2 furry beauties. This duo of doggie love will surely get lots of attention from passersby including requests for a sloppy kiss or friendly paw shake. Thank you Erin and Dave, and son Eli for adding this cutie to your home! And thank you Taylor for fostering Miss Summer.

Barkley is HOME!! Kathy & Rick love dogs and have had several through the years. So naturally it felt strange to be without a dog to dote on. They took their time watching & waiting for the right fit. Rick is retired & wanted a dog to hang out with him during the day, and just generally be his little buddy. When a match came along, they were sure they would know it & that's when Barkley entered the picture. This lucky pup spends his days getting to know his new surroundings, complete with big yard, pool & lots of cozy dog beds when playtime ends. Thank you so much Rick &Kathy for giving Barkley a fresh start on his grand new life! And thank you Amanda for another wonderful job as foster mommy to a needy pup.

Bandit-Fritz is HOME!! Jim and Jan were grieving the loss of their beloved pup Pirate, who passed away after 14 wonderful, love-filled years. While no dog is irreplaceable, Jan and Jim couldn't imagine life without a dog to love. They wanted to rescue a pooch who needed them just as much as they needed another furbaby. Bandit, now known simply as Fritz, gets the honor of following in Pirate's footsteps which means he'll go on many new, exciting adventures, swim in their pool and learn some mad agility skills. More than anything, this pup will be loved just as Pirate was loved. Thank you Jim & Jan for allowing Fritz to help heal your hearts. And thanks Michelle & Matt for being such awesome foster parents.

Roxy is HOME!! Katherine & Tony & their rescued pup Poppy wanted to add a furry family member to their home. Poppy was more than happy to share her space because her mom & dad have plenty of love to share. This retired couple has the time to devote to another furry friend & chose sweet Roxy to become theirs forever. Roxy just wanted a home where she would be loved & cuddled as she's such a sweet girl who needed to feel secure. She's finally in that home, where she can spend the rest of her carefree life with her best gal pal Poppy and forever parents Katherine & Tony!

Tyga is HOME!! Andrew's family raised Pekingnese throughout his life & he too has always had at least 1 or 2 of this precious breed to call his own. His current peke Jade was lonely after the loss of her fur brother who lived to the ripe old age of 14. Andrew was instantly drawn to Tyga & couldn't wait to make him a permanent part of his family. Tyga will live a great life in his new home, complete with a huge yard to play in, boat rides with his pal Jade, & no doubt an abundance of love. Thank you foster mom Jacky, you rock! And thanks Andrew for adopting a pup mate for Jade.

Smitty is HOME!! Gladys, Bob and their adorable twin daughters welcomed Smitty into their home with arms wide open! This fabulous dog's life has gone from rags to riches since he was rescued by PPR. He was a sad shelter dog but with a lot of TLC from foster mom Tiffany, he blossomed into his true amazing self! Judging by the smile on his face he couldn't be happier to take on his newest adventure with his awesome forever family. It's a given that Smitty will be spoiled with toys, treats, games and belly rubs. What more could any dog want? Thank you Gladys and Bob and foster mom Tiffany for sharing your love with this super cool dude.

Sadie is HOME!! Jackie, Joe and Brooke were ready to add a new family member to their lives since the loss of their sweet pup Oreo earlier this year. They are an active family who wanted a dog who would enjoy walks, playing ball and being the center of attention! Judging by the smile on Sadie's face she has found the family for her! She too wanted a family who would play with her, but mostly love her forever. This wonderful family is certain that Sadie was meant for them and couldn't be happier with their newest addition. Thank you foster mom Kay and new adopters Jackie, Joe and Brooke for giving Sadie her new start to happiness always.

Saki is HOME!! We believe all of our wonderful dogs hit the jackpot when adopted by their forever families, but in Saki’s case he hit the jackpot & the lottery!! Not only was he adopted by a wonderful couple but he was reunited with his life long puppy love, Miss Sushi. Lavon & Terrence recently adopted sweet Sushi & love her to pieces. They kept watching the website to see Saki’s adoption photo, then decided hey, why don’t we become his forever family too? Sushi agreed completely so these 2 “lovedogs” are reunited & get to live happily together forever. We couldn’t be more thrilled as this is surely the perfect fit for these two dogs. Thank you foster mom Paula for opening your home to this sweet boy. And big thanks to 2 time adopters Lavon & Terrence!!

Blu is HOME!! Blu was one of PPR’s gentle giants, just an awesome big dog who wanted nothing more than a great home where he might be able to pass himself off as a lap dog! As much as Blu loves to play, he also wants to be right with his family which is just the kind of dog Shauna and Gary were looking for. Along with their 2 young children, this couple felt like Blu belonged with them. They have experience with big dogs so know that Blu will need a lot of exercise, something this young family is up for! And with a fenced yard for playing fetch, Blu has all a big loveable dog hopes for. Thank you Shauna, Gary and the kids for welcoming Blu into your hearts and home. And thank you so much to the Hull family for loving this wonderful pup in foster care.

Cami is HOME!! Bonnie contacted PPR hoping to adopt a sweet little lap dog, one she could take with her to work, cuddle with at home and spoil with tons of affection. Bonnie and her husband Hobson, who happens to be a veterinarian, would give the dog they adopted everything necessary for a long and healthy life. Bonnie and Hobson were open to a dog with special needs and when they heard about Cami, who came to PPR with severe injuries to her pelvis, they were eager and willing to adopt her as their own and make sure she got all the care and TLC she would need. Cami, now known as Annie, is off to a new life of unconditional love, something this precious pooch deserves after her rough start. Thank you SO much Bonnie & Hobson for adopting a dog who needed you. And thank you Donna for fostering Cami, giving her a jumpstart to her amazing bright future ahead.

Pippen is HOME!! Trudy was eager to bring a little dog into her life, one who would be a wonderful companion that she could love to pieces.

In other words, her little friend would go everywhere with her! Pippen is the perfect pup for Trudy because he bonds fully & completely to “his” person. He can’t wait to begin his journey with Trudy & becoming her best bud. Thank you Trudy for choosing a pup who needed you. And thanks fsoter Julie for the TLC you provided Pippin.

Thank you Cheryl for rescuing a dog who is just a tad older but still has so much love to give. Pumpkin looks forward to many wonderful years with you & your family.

Maddie is HOME!! Judy & Jeff were ready to open their hearts to another dog, having recently lost their beloved Ginger.

Tony is HOME!! Michael really wanted to adopt a small dog who would be chilled enough to spend his week days hanging out at Michaels business. Tony is just the pup for the job, ready and willing to go to work and do whatever his new boss asks of him! Tony is so easy going that he’ll fit right in at the office or cuddled up at home with Michaels adorable daughters, Tony’s 2 new moms. Tony sure hit the jackpot being adopted by a family who will spend their time giving him all the attention he could hope for. Thank you Michael and your daughters for rescuing your new family member. And big thanks to Andrea & Andy for fostering Tony until his new forever home came along.

Brie is HOME!! All of our dogs are special to us, but little Brie held an extra special place in the hearts of all of us at PPR. She has been through a lot in her short life, including having her damaged front leg amputated. Like a lot of rescue pups, all Brie wanted was a forever home where she would be safe and loved. Bonnie is the new mom who adopted this sweetheart. Along with her other rescue pup Smokey, Bonnie likes to let folks know these are her 2 kids! We couldn’t be happier that Brie has a mom to love her and a pup brother to play with. Thank you Bonnie for seeing past the missing leg to the perfect pup we all know Brie to be. Special thanks to Nina, Nini and Theresa who fostered this little girl and helped her heal.

Belina is HOME!! Faye, Greg & their children applied to foster for PPR. We were thrilled because a dog placed in their home would get an abundance of attention & care prior to adoption. Belina was placed with this awesome family & settled right in, making herself at home. In fact, became so comfortable that everyone decided this precious pup should stay forever! This family couldn’t imagine letting Belina go so they adopted her as their own. Thanks so much for fostering AND adopting Belina, making her the newest member of your family.

Eve is HOME!! Eve waited patiently in foster care for her forever home. She is a perfect little angel and foster mom Theresa wanted only the best for her foster pup. Debbie and Ferrell have adopted many dogs through the years, including their tiny pup Rocky. Rocky was a puppy mill dog before he found his safe haven with Debbie and Ferrell. Debbie felt Rocky would do well with pup companionship and Eve seemed like a perfect match. Eve is one lucky little girl to have had such a loving foster mom and to now be living forever with her wonderful new parents Debbie & Ferrell. We are so happy about this match as Eve deserves only the best...which is just what she got!! Thank you Debbie and Ferrell for giving another pup a brand new bright future!

Tess is HOME!! When Alicia applied to PPR to adopt a dog, she wrote that she absolutely loved dogs and really wanted another sweet pup to fill the void she felt since loosing her precious beagle girl last year. Alicia and David wanted a small dog who would be their tiny snuggler as well as become a little buddy to their sweet Golden Retriever Bocci. Bocci loves everyone, two or four legged alike so there was little doubt that Tess would be a perfect fit for this family. Alicia, David, and their daughter have completed the family with their newest addition Tess. Thank you to each of you, including awesome foster mom Julie, for ensuring that sweet Tess is happily ever after home.

Cuddles &  Panda are HOME!! Ruthie & Frank are active retirees who applied to adopt One small dog following the loss of their beloved Golden Sadie. Sadie was a special girl who couldn’t be replaced, but thankfully Ruthie & Frank had room in their hearts to love another dog. When we explained that Cuddles & Panda knew life only as a bonded pair, Ruthie & Frank agreed the pups shouldn't be separated... so they adopted both! This double dose of love is just what Ruthie & Frank needed to mend their hearts since loosing Sadie. Thanks so much to these forever parents (& adorable granddaugher), & foster mom Victoria for keeping this pair of pups happily together forever!

Beckett is HOME!! Marla is not only a dog lover, but a dog groomer, foster mom and awesome dog mommy. She has two small dogs of her own so when she decided to foster Beckett, the test would be to see how he got along with her tiny 4 pound and 10 pound dogs. Beckett must have made himself right at home with his foster mom Marla, son Connor and 2 tiny canine siblings because his foster home is now his forever home. Beckett will get to occasionally go to work at Woof Gang Bakery with mom Marla, where he can check out all the yummy goodies on the shelves (and probably sneak a few too!). We love it when our wonderful fosters fall in love with their temporary guest, making them theirs forever. Thank you Marla for all you do for your pups, PPR and now for Beckett.

Yoda is HOME!! Debra & Peter love their dogs, which have come in all sizes & breeds! Oscar their beagle needed a pup playmate & Debra wanted a walking buddy so the search began for yet another family member. When Yoda came into PPR we immediately thought of Debra as we had a hunch Yoda might be their perfect fit. Judging by the smile on her face, Yoda agreed whole heartedly! Oscar is eager to show Yoda all the "cool" spots in the backyard, while dachshund sister Sophie will provide the indoor tour. Yoda, now known as Rosie, is a lucky pup & we are so grateful to Debra & Peter for opening their hearts & home to her. From shelter to the suburbs, now that's a happy ending!! And bigThanks foster mom Tiffany too!

King is HOME!! This awesome little dog came to PPR in need of lots of TLC. King was placed with fosters Sherry and Neil where he was cared for and loved until he was fully healthy and ready for his forever home. Ty and William spotted King and felt he was just the pup for them. Sherry says all it took was a quick introduction and these dads were already in love with their new family member. Now known as King Henry, this terrific pooch is living the royal life fit for a King. Thank you Sherry & Neil for loving King until his forever home came along. And thank you Ty and William for adopting this adorable Prince Charming.

Sketch is HOME!! Sheila & Joseph deeply missed their dog who recently passed away. They began the search for another pup to love but were willing to take their time to find the right fit. Along came Sketch who he seemed to be just what this retired couple was looking for in a canine companion. Shelia & Joseph named their new addition "Lucky", which is absolutelyfitting given the new life this pup has to look forward to!! Lucky's future is so bright because he finally has a permanent home with parents who will care for him, love him and spoil him just as he deserves. We are so grateful to Sheila & Joseph for opening their hearts to a dog who needed them. And huge thanks to foster mom Lisa for sharing your love with Lucky Sketch!

Angel is HOME!! Jo Anne and Rich have loved many dachunds through the years, including their current pup Bobo. Little Bobo was used to having a buddy to play with and was grieving the recent loss of his pup brother Brisco. Jo Anne & Rich also missed another dog in the home so applied to meet Miss Angel. What a perfect fit for this little pup! She’s even declared herself a “daddy’s girl” to new dad Rich. We couldn’t be happier that Angel is the little princess in her new castle. Thank you foster mom Anita for the excellent care you gave this sweetheart in your home. And thank you Jo Anne and Rich for being Angel’s rescue angels.

Maya is HOME!! Barbara isn't new to rescuing pups., having adopted Abby, her papillon, following Hurrican Katrina.  Now seemed like a good time to add another pup, & luckily she only needed to visit her neighbors, PPR fosters Andrea & Andy, to meet little Maya.  In just a few visits she & her son James grew to love this little sweetheart.  The foster family agreed that Maya should stay in the neighborhood so Barbara  became Maya's offical forever mom. Now known as Mia, she is thriving in her new home.  Mia even has play dates with Andrea's pup Lucy.  Thank you to all involved in another happy ending!

O’Malley is HOME!! Mark & Dale wanted to add a 4 legged buddy to their home so the search for a rescue pup began. O’Malley caught their eye & juding by this photo, Dale and O’Malley bonded right from the start. This couple work opposite schedules so the dog they adopted would have days filled with human companionship. We are so happy for this little pooch, knowing that he has the love & devotion of 2 adoring parents! Foster mom Anglelica loved this little pup while he was in her care, & though hard to say good bye, she knew this was the perfect home for O’Malley. Thank you all for for another happy ending!

CC is HOME!! Julie was looking for a young dog who, just like her, would enjoy being outdoors for lots of exercise. CC readily volunteered for the honor of being Julie’s walking and running partner! As a young, active dog, CC was overjoyed that Julie wanted to keep her busy with lots of activity and play! This is a perfect match as CC will have Julie, Julie’s roommate, and all their friends eager to spoil her. Thank you foster mom Diva for loving this pup while she was in your care and thank you Julie for choosing to adopt!!

Hamlet is HOME!! This adorable, tiny pup made his debut at an adoption event and all it took was one look for Tammy and Greg to want him as their own! Their pup Lexi had been “asking” for a friend anyway so the timing was just right. Tammy & Greg are up for the challenge of raising a puppy, and will give Hamlet all the attention and training he needs to be a beloved family pet for years to come. Thank you Tammy and Greg for choosing adoption, and we are sure Hamlet thanks you every day with lots of puppy kisses. And thank you Faith for giving Hamlet his great start in foster care.

Annie is HOME!! Diane and Roderick adore their little maltie-poo and wanted him to have a best friend. Luckily for Annie, she gets to do the honors, after being adopted by Diane and Roderick. This little pup will be so well cared for, you see Diane just happens to manage a pet hospital! Annie will lack for nothing, including all the love and attention, as well as great training, that a little puppy deserves. Thank you Diane and Roderick for choosing to adopt, rather than shop, for your puppy! And as always, thank you Faith for the wonderful start you gave Annie & her pup siblings in foster care

Enzo is Home!! Heather andTommy saw this awesome little guy at an adoption event and fell immediately in love. He stole their hearts and they knew he would become a best bud to their pup Chewy. Heather and Tommy love their dogs so much they spoil them with trips to doggie day care on the days Heather & Tommy don’t work from home. Lucky Enzo gets to spend his days schmoozing with his 4 legged friends, then his “spare” time chilling with his awesome Mom and Dad. Thank you so much Heather and Tommy for choosing Enzo, the one eyed dog with the really big heart! And thank you Amanda for being Enzo’s fabulous foster mom.

Reno is HOME!! Mandy contacted PPR about becoming a foster parent. She didn’t have a dog of her own and felt she had the time, love and patience to give to a dog in need. We were thrilled to have her join our team as a new foster mom and placed Reno in her home. Mandy loved & cared for Reno, tending to his every need. Over time she realized that this dog was meant to be with her forever, how could she ever let him go?! We totally understand as it happens to most fosters at least once! Now Mandy has a dog of her very own to love and cherish. Even better, her next foster pup will have Reno for a buddy! Thank you Mandy for fostering, and adopting, this precious pooch. He’s so lucky he found you!

Bo is HOME!! Bo is one lucky little guy! He had the good fortune of being fostered by Angelica & Tom who met Justin and Ethan who have always wanted an Italian Greyhound.  It didn’t take long for Justin and Ethan to know that Bo should be forever theirs! Bo was just fine with that decision because he really wanted a home to call his own. Now he’s secure, happy and loved by Justin and Ethan. Plus, there’s a bonus! Bo also has Sophia, a chichi sibling to play with! Thanks so much to Angelica and Tom for fostering this sweet boy until he could find his forever home!

Taz is HOME!!  Carol and Daniel, & Carol’s Dad are proud parents to Bernie and Mac, little Shih Tzu mixes, both 4 years old. The only problem in this house was the human/dog ratio being a bit off balance. The 3 humans had to jockey for time with 2 dogs. Hmmm, the only way to solve this dilemma was to adopt another pup!  Taz was more than happy to do the honors of joining this great family. Well, Taz, Bernie and Mac now have Carol, Daniel, and Carol’s Dad, pictured here, to share their love and their laps. Thanks so much Carol and Dan. You proved there is always room for one more dog. And thanks so much foster mom Christen, Taz will never forget you!

Cuddles is HOME!! Just as his name implies, Cuddles is a love bug, just a sweet, affectionate, happy boy. Nancy met him and knew he was the dog for her! He’s simply irresistible! Cuddles is one lucky dude to have Nancy as his new mom and a brother to love him as well. Nancy and her son will spoil him just as they spoil their other 2 pups, Camaro and Sheba. With kids and dogs to play with, Cuddles has everything any young poodle could hope for.....family, fun, and lots of cuddling! Thank you Nancy for giving this sweet boy the chance to start his forever life all over again with your family!

Pebbles is HOME!!  Julie and William are empty nesters since all the kids are grown and moved out. That of course leaves them with tons of love & time to give their pets! Their little Yorkie Lucy has love to spare as well and really wanted a playmate. Pebbles was the perfect match for this family! Sisters Lucy and Pebbles will have loads of fun romping in the back yard, then snuggling up to Mom and Dad. What a great life Pebbles has ahead of her! Thank you so much Julie and William for adopting this sweet girl. Thanks as well to foster mom Liz for helping with another happy ending!

Sophie is HOME!! Scott and his family saw the trio of chi/dachund pups on our website and wanted to meet them all! They fell in love with  Sophie and she’s now living her forever life with a busy family who will spoil her in the manner she deserves. Having raised puppies in the past, this family is up to the task, ready to provide the training, love and patience a puppy requires. We are so happy Sophie was saved, fostered and rescued! Thank you Scott and family for being the rescuers and thank you Jeanine for loving all the puppies in foster care.

Dylan is HOME!!  This Schnauzer pup is so handsome that we knew he would be a very popular guy! Ann and Bill saw Dylan and wasted no time applying for him to become their own. Having had several dogs through the years, this couple was very ready for another dog to love. Now retired, Ann and Bill have the time to give Dylan all the attention he craves. And with a fenced back yard, Dylan gets to do the Schnauzer 500 around the property!

Jack is HOME!!  Paul and Wendy are parents to two active teenagers and one terrier pup named Scout. This family specifically requested an energetic dog and Jack fills the bill!  Jack is 60 lbs of fun, ready for a family who will keep him busy!  Paul, Wendy and the kids are looking forward to a lot of exercise with this guy, including chasing tennis balls and tug-o-war games. We so appreciate this wonderful, responsible family for rescuing a dog instead of buying from a pet store.  It's educated families like this that will put an end to puppy mills!  Thank you Paul and Wendy for giving Jack the home he's been waiting for!

Zoe is HOME!! Lauren wanted a dog of her own to love.  Her mom and dad have a big dog named Zoe.  Lauren's lifestyle was a better fit for a small dog and it was time for a dog of her own to spoil.  Lauren saw Zoe on the PPR website and fell in love with her.  Having the same name as her mom and dad's dog just had to be fate!  So now there's Big Zoe and  Little Zoe!  Little Zoe is just tiny enough to take wherever Lauren goes.  If you spot Lauren and Zoe around town, be sure to say hello!  Thank you Lauren for rescuing a pup in need. And thank you foster mom Christen for loving Miss Zoe while she was in your care.

Max is HOME!! Jerry and Jo Ann couldn’t imagine life without a pup in their home. After losing their precious buddy Jack, they needed to give another pup a loving, happy home. Along came Max at just the right time. Max couldn’t be happier to be in his forever home and Jerry and Jo Ann are thrilled to have another dog to dote on. We want to give a big thank you to Jerry and Jo Ann for opening their hearts to another dog after the sadness of losing Jack. You are rescue angels and Max will thank you every day!! And thank you Michelle for fostering Max until his forever family came along.

Delaney is HOME!!  Diane waited nearly 8 years to adopt a dog since her last dog passed away. Now that she was close to retiriing she knew she could give the dog lots of attention so the time was just right!  Delaney, now known as Chloe, is home with her new Mommy Diane and her many friends and family members. As you can see from this picture, Miss Chloe is already adored. What a lucky girl!!  Thank you Diane for rescuing this little lady and making her part of your life. And thank you foster Andrea for dolling up Delany and loving her to pieces while she was in your care.

Little Caesar is HOME!!  Tiffany is a young lady who wanted to rescue a dog she could love and cherish forever. She and her family searched for the dog who needed them the most.

This family of 4 will love this little guy every day of his life.  Little Caesar’s search for a forever home ended with Tiffany. He is thankful to his foster mom Vicki for loving him always. And thank you to Tiffany and your family for reaching out to save a dog in need.

Olive is HOME!!  Mark and Maryellen have always rescued their family dogs. Their last pup was loved until her passing at the age of 17. With 2 young boys in the home, a puppy would fit great into this active family. As in the past, the family looked to rescue for a puppy, and had a chance meeting with Olive at the adoption event in Celebration.. Olive sure hit the jackpot that day, going home with her awesome forever family. Thank you Mark, Maryellen, Nate and Zeke for choosing to rescue your family pet. And thank you puppy foster Angelica for the great start you gave Olive!

Alvin is HOME!! Brandi had been searching for a pup to adopt so she attended the adoption fest held in Celebration. As an empty nester she knew she had the time and patience to give a puppy. Alvin was the lucky puppy who stole her heart. We fully understand because who in the world could resist this adorable puppy? Brandi fell in love, applied to adopt and met foster mom Faith following the event to make the adoption final. This little pup will be so well loved, trained and socialized. Thank you Brandi for choosing adoption, and thank you Faith for all the love & care you gave Alvin and his puppy siblings.

Rascal is HOME!!  Michele and Anthony knew how much their daughter Jordan wanted a dog of her own to love, especially now that she was graduating college and starting her new life. This family loves dogs as their pups Rome and Bella will attest. The family spotted Rascal and they all met the little guy.  Now  Jordan now has a little buddy of her own to raise, love and spoil. We know she'll be a great mom to this pup since she has volunteered as a foster mom for PPR in the past. Thank you Jordon for choosing rescue, but especially for choosing little Rascal as your own!  And thank you Janis for fostering this puppy and giving him a great start!

Chewy is HOME!!  Roxann and Ric LOVE dogs. In fact, they have quite a brood, each one spoiled & adored. They believe there is always room for one more so when they met Chewy, they decided to make him part of the pack! Chewy is in for a life of fun and adventure. Not only does he have all his pup siblings to play with, he'll also be travelling the country with Roxann and Ric. All the dogs get to winter in Florida and summer in the Northeast. Wow, what a life! Thanks so much Roxann & Ric. We're so happy you had space in your heart & home for Chewy! And thanks Barb for fostering this cool little dude.

Ally is HOME!!  Marilyn and Eric were considering adoption, but taking their time to find the right fit. Still grieving from the loss of their precious poodle Sassy, they felt they would know when the right pooch needed them. Their Sassy was 17 when she passed and was loved and cared for like a princess. PPR knew any dog adopted by Marlilyn and Eric would be loved the same way. Ally is the lucky pup who now gets the adoration of parents Eric & Marilyn. They love her to pieces. Thank you Eric & Marilyn for choosing adoption.

Barbie is HOME!  She's now 'Lady Gaga'!  She came to us after someone cut off her ears.  Now she's home with Brenda and Bill who adopted Fiona from us a few months back.  Brenda says it best "We adore our new Lady Gaga! She is fitting into our life style nicely and knows her new name. She sleeps in bed with us and all of her sisters. She is playing with Murphy our 10 yr. old black poodle and our 5 yr. old yorkie named Moontaha.  Our last rescue, 13 yr. old Olive hasn’t warmed up yet but that will come in time. Gaga goes for walks, gets has a vitamin every day, eats treats from Wolfgang Bakery and is taking rides in our car."  What a wonderful new life for this sweet girl!!
 

Emry is HOME!!  Francine and Ron loved all their precious pups. Sugar Pie and Skippy never lacked for attention and care.

We are so happy for Emry and know that her life just got so much better now that she has a family that loves her!! Thank you Francine & Ron for opening your home to another rescue pup. And thanks Rose for fostering this bundle of adorableness!

Mitzi is HOME!!  Neal and Sarah are cat folks but love the doggie's too! They wanted to add a pup to their family but of course the pup would need to get along with their current cat companions. Mitzi was up to the task, she loves humans and 4 legged creatures of all kind!  Neal and Sarah met sweet Mitzi after spotting her on the website. They loved this beauty but then, who wouldn't? Thank you Neal and Sarah for waiting for your perfect match to come along! And thank you foster mom Marie for loving Mitzi while she was in your care.

Pluto is HOME!!  Sharon and Dana waited until their 2 children were old enough to care for and play with a pup.  They felt the time was right to welcome a fur buddy into their home. Sharon asked for an active dog who could go for runs, walks and swims in the pool. Pluto was definitely the boy for that task!  Both paws went into the air when we asked Pluto if he wanted to go home with this active family!  Thank you Sharon, Dana and the kids for providing Pluto with his awesome forever home! Thank you to Tomi and Elizabeth for such great foster care!

Spartan is HOME!!  Dale and Gerald have always been cat people, spoiling their kitties with plenty of TLC. With Gerald now retired and home most of the day, the time seemed right to bring a little  pup into the home. Dale and Gerald wanted a companion for lap sitting and daily walks. Who better than Spartan to fill that bill? He is certainly handsome, sweet and wants to please. Thank you Dale and Gerald for reaching out to rescue a dog and thank you Michelle and Bill for being wonderful foster parents to this precious pup.

Pam and George spotted Chichi on the website and thought he might make a good buddy for Jessica, their Jack Russell Terrier. Chichi is so darn cute with those radar ears that naturally he was totally irresistible when Pam and George met him in person. We adopted Chichi to this great couple and now he's living the good life in Cocoa with his 4 legged girlfriend Jessica. Thank you Julie for saving Chichi and Geri for fostering her. Chichi will be forever grateful to you both, and to her forever Mom and Dad, Pam and George.

Abby is HOME!! Laurie just happened to meet Miss Abby when Abby was out and about in the neighborhood with foster mom Valerie. It was love at first sight for Laurie so she immediately applied to adopt Abby and was approved. From there is was simply a matter of introducing her twin teens to Abby. As you see from this photo, the twins approved and Miss Abby was adopted! She is one lucky puppy as she’ll have loads of attention from her new family as well as 3 cats to play with! We couldn’t be happier knowing this puppy has a long life of spoiling ahead in her awesome forever home! Thank you to all involved in making this adoption happen.

Riley is Home!! We all love happy endings and this one is especially dear to our hearts. Everyone at PPR thought Riley was in foster care, but little did we know he had already found his forever home.....with his foster parents and their children! Sometimes these dogs are just sneaky that way, and in the case of Riley, he figured if he hung around long enough that Sandy, Marc and the kids would keep him forever! That’s exactly what happened and we are thrilled to announce that Riley is officially home for good. Thank you so much Sandy and Marc for loving this sweet boy. Your children will always appreciate this wonderful gift of a rescue dog to love.

Rosie is HOME!! As this picture shows, Elvin and Zaida are bursting with pride over their newest addition! Elvin happened to meet Miss Rosie when he was in the foster mom’s neighborhood. Perhaps it was love at first sight, but he couldn’t stop thinking of Miss Rosie! There was no question that this match was meant to be and Rosie couldn’t be happier now that she is surrounded by so much love. She has Elvin, Zaida and an extended family including their grandchildren, who cuddle her and give her all the attention she deserves. Thank you Rita and Janis for fostering Rosie and thank you Elvin and Zaida for opening your hearts to a rescue pup in need.
 

Artie is HOME!!  Julie and Steve, along with their 3 children, wanted to add a dog to their active family. Mr. Artie is the lucky pup who caught their eye so they drove all the way from St. Augustine to meet this handsome fella. After spending several hours getting to know him, this family decided that Artie would fit in just right in their home. Artie will enjoy lots of attention from this family of 5. Oh, and did we mention he’ll get to check out the pet corn snake and bearded dragon!  We’d love to see that introduction! Artie is so lucky to have been fostered by Jeanne and now to be living with his forever family! Thank you to all involved in making this adoption happen!

Harley is home!!  Cherri and Dave are experienced dog owners who currently have a hairless Chinese Crested named Deenie, They lost their other Crested to cancer in November. The hairless Chinese Crested are a unique breed who need experienced owners who understand the special care they require. Naturally, we were so happy when Cherri applied for Harley because it was apparent she would be able to tend to his every need and give him the loving care he deserves. Harley is now living happily in his forever home with Cherri, Dave, their daughter, and pup siblings Deenie and Joey. Thank you Angelica and Tom for fostering this gentle soul until the perfect match was made with Cherri and Dave!

Mirabell is Home!!  Miss Mirabell was rescued by volunteer Julie who also became her foster mom Julie. Tiny Mirabell is just so adorable and sweet that it took no time to find the perfect home for such a precious pup. Jodi and her husband Gerry were actively looking for a companion for their little pup Roxy so we suggested they meet Mirabell. It was a perfect match for all involved! Mirabell is now surrounded by all the love she deserves, living  with her new parents Jodi and Gerry, their 2 teenaged children, and of course her fur sister Roxy. Thank you again Julie for saving this sweet girl. And thank you Jodi and Gerry for adding Princess Mirabell to your family!

Mayzie is Home!! Gail has had several pup companions through the years and felt it was time to add a new fur buddy to her home. Mayzie caught her eye with her unique markings and sweet face! Gail has reported that Mayzie is already making herself right at home. She loves to lay at Gail’s feet or snuggle in her doggie bed. Gail has had a beagle in the past so she recognizes Mayzie’s need for exercise and exploration, as well as the “beagle bark”. Thank you Gail for being Mayzie’s rescue angel! And thank you Terry for fostering this sweet girl as she awaited her furever home!!

Buddy and Cooper are home!  We adopted Buddy and Cooper to Michele and Karl.  Michele and Karl are huge dog lovers who work from home so their dogs are never alone.  They have another young Shih Tzu that loves to play, so Buddy has a buddy to play with!  Michele and Karl have lots of time to spoil their pets and have a history of providing excellent care for their dogs who get to sleep in the bed and even go on vacation in their RV.  Thank you Kim and Jeanine for fostering these two pups so they can be spoiled for years and years!

Leo is Home!! Stephanie had wanted to adopt a dog of her own for quite some time, and now that her new home is nearly finished, the time was just right to bring Leo home!! Leo is so lucky to have the complete attention of Stephanie, tagging along with her as she goes about her busy life. This lucky pup gets to go to the parks, outdoor cafes, and other doggie friendly venues around town.  He might even convince Stephanie to take him to work with her! Thank you foster parents Michelle and Bill for the care you provided this super cool little guy. And thank you Stephanie for your lifetime commitment to love your rescue pup!

Lexie is Home!!  Nancy, Roger and their children David and Rachel (pictured) adopted Lexie.  When they met Lexie, they knew that she was coming home with them to join their Boston Terrier Sandy!  This adoption is extra special because Nancy and Roger are friends of Lexie's foster mom, Julie. That means Julie gets to visit Lexie any time! Julie not only fostered Lexie, but also transported her from animal control, and cared for her throughout her bladder stone surgery and recovery.  Lexie is such a lucky girl to have so many people in her life who love her . Thank you foster Julie and adopters Nancy, Roger and family for fulfilling this pup’s dreams of happily ever after.

Milo is home!!  He's the big boy on the left and he has moved up in the world!   Milo used to live in FILTH, he had more fleas than we've seen on any dog, ever!  He was a half bald, breeding dog who's skin was "on fire".  He stunk so bad it was it was hard to be in the same room with him.  But now, he's living in beautiful home with his new mom Paula and brother Luca, a Malti-Poo.  He's now gorgeous, living in luxury and gets to be clean, feel good and be loved! Thank you Paula for saving Milo!

Princess is home!  We adopted Princess to Rene, Milton and their daughter Samantha.  This family's Pug had passed and they wanted to adopt another.  They felt strongly that Princess was the right dog for them and they were right!  We were only going to adopt Princess to a home with no children, until we met Samantha who is so smart she skipped a grade.  When we met Samantha, it was obvious she was going to be great with Princess.  Thank you for Richard for sponsoring this little girl.  Thank you also to Rene, Milton and Samantha for adopting a dog instead of buying one from a breeder or a pet store!!

Rusty went home with Charles, Laura and their 15 year old daughter, pictured here.  This family misses having a dog in their home.  Their oldest daughter moved out and took her dog with her.  The house is way too quiet!   It was time for a new addition.  Charles works from home so Rusty will have lots of company and help with his housetraining skills.   Thank you Mandi and Jessica, Rusty's foster moms for caring for him and his siblings and cleaning up all that poop!

Boo is home!!  Boo went home with Sandi who's dogs April and Cricket had passed at ripe old ages.  Sandi has a vet history proving her dedication to her pets.  A dog in her home is not just a pet, it's a member of her family.  Sandi has a great home and a nice fenced in yard so Boo can run around as he loves to do.  Although he may discover that lying on the sofa in the air-conditioning, chewing on a huge bone is also a great way to spend the afternoon!   Boo is Sandi's new baby.  Thank you Anne for sponsoring him!

Murphy is home!!  Murphy was found starving in the woods.  One of our foster moms was riding her horse and saw what she thought was a raccoon, but turned out to be a puppy, alone in the woods.  She took it home and called us.  After lots of loving care and vetting, Murphy became a gorgeous boy and was ready for a home.  Lauren wanted a companion for Shadow, her blind, diabetic Lab girl who still loves to play!  They adopted Murphy and Lauren says "He's a sweetie and we love him!".  Thank you Lauren for giving Murphy a new life!

Maxwell went home with Cathy and Bill.  This couple has one baby -- a German Shephard named Sasha!  Sasha lost her prior companion and needed another doggie to share her life with.  Maxwell is just what this family was looking for!  Cathy and Bill have a huge yard for romping, so Maxwell and Sasha will get lots of exercise and have lots of playtime.   Thank you Mandi and Jessica for fostering this little pup who is home now!

Betsy is home!  Betsy went home with Peggy, Liz, Katie and their little Yorkie “Bear”. This family drove 2.5 hours to meet Betsy and everyone, including Bear, loved her. Peggy wanted to add another pup to her family after losing their beloved dog Candi last month and Betsy was a perfect match.  Peggy says Betsy is doing great and they all love her.  Next month, Peggy will take Betsy to her last follow up appointment for her eyes (Betsy had cataract surgery thanks to PPR donors).  Then Betsy can live the rest of her life like a normal, spoiled, princess!

Becca is home!  Becca went home with Emily and David who have two other Chihuahua's named Sherman (who is 16) and Nemo (who is 8).  This couple is devoted to their dogs.  Emily works from home so Becca will have a full time mommy.  And of course, she gets to sleep in the bed, where else?!  Becca who was a skinny middle aged dog, used to make money for her owner as a breeder is now living like a queen!  Thank you Emily and David for rescuing this little girl and showing her how wonderful life can be!

Kingston is home!!  Kingston lives with Jennifer, Brian and their 3 daughters, pictured here.  They just lost their Golden Retriever in August and missed the pitter patter of big feet in their home.  They happened to meet Kingston because a neighbor was fostering him and they decided he was the one!  These three girls are just what Kingston, now named Jack, needs to keep him busy!  Thank you Camelia for sponsoring this big boy who was a caged breeding dog and is now part of a family! 

Missy's home!  We adopted Missy to Cheryl and Doug.  Cheryl had been looking for a little dog to love and cuddle so when she saw Missy, she knew Missy was the dog for her. Cheryl and her daughter Angelica, drove from Ormond Beach to meet Missy, now known as Sophie, and it was truly love at first sight. In fact, we are wondering if Cheryl has put Sophie down yet-- she just couldn’t let her out of her arms!  Missy now has a Bichon brother, a very gentle boy named Luke who is 10 years old.  Thank you to Evelyn for sponsoring this little girl and to Cheryl and her wonderful family for giving her the home she deserves!

Player is home!  We adopted Player to Mary, who is a special needs teacher.  Mary's cat passed and this time she was ready for a dog!  This will be her first dog so Player is perfect for her because he's calm, easy and loving.  Despite his name, Player doesn't play much, he's more of a loverboy.  Mary is obviously a special person with lots of patience, given her job.  Player is lucky to be in her arms and is going to be the perfect dog for Mary to come home to after a busy day.  Thank you Roberta for sponsoring Player!

Fred and Ginger are home!! We adopted this dancing pair to Carla, Francisco and their daughter. This family drove from Lake Worth to meet these two and it was well worth it. After the loss of their Poodle Max, they needed another to love. Lucky for Fred and Ginger, they have enough room and love for two!  We are so happy we could keep this pair together.  They are side by side from the time they wake up, until bedtime and can continue living together the rest of their spoiled lives!

Sherman is home!!  We adopted Sherman to Stacey who had recently lost her Boston Terrier, Louie to liver disease.  She needed another dog to love because she loves her pets like children.  Stacey drove from Tallahassee to meet Sherman and of course she loved him immediately.  Thank you Stacey for giving Sherman a wonderful home and also thank you to his sponsors-- Maria and Richard, for saving him!

Bubbles is home!  We adopted Bubbles to Kimberely, Brian and their two boys.  Bubbles took to these boys immediately.  She may have been around children in her past because she sure loves these two!  This family babysits a small peek-a-poo so they are used to small dogs but hadn't had a dog of their own for a while.  They met all 3 chichi's but preferred Bubbles because since they loved them all equally, they thought Bubbles needed them the most due to her age and her eye injury.  How wonderful is that!!  Bubbles now lives in Orlando and has a family all to herself!!

Winchester is home!!  Winchester was an animal control dog that, like most of them, was a great dog that had a dumb owner.  He was one of hundreds.  Now he's loved and adored by Neil and his mom Beverly who opened their home to this big loving pup.  As you can see Winchester is so thankful to Neil and has become his best buddy.  A great happy ending to a story that started off so sad.  Thank you Beverly and Neil!

Dori is home!!  Bret drove down from Gainesville to pick up his new girl.  Dori loved her new dad immediately.  She had a 2 hour drive ahead of her to meet her new mom Claire and her brother a 2 year old Bichon named Huckleberry!  Lets hope Huckleberry is prepared for non-stop play as Dori won't accept anything less!  Thank you Patricia for sponsoring Dori who is in excellent hands now especially since dad is physician and mom is a nurse!

Smiley is home!!  Smiley went home with Jeff and Daeng.  Jeff and Deang are about to become empty-nesters as their son is getting ready to leave their home.  So course they needed something to love and care for with their kids gone.  This family drove all the way from Jacksonville to meet Smiley and make him part of their family.   Daeng is a homemaker and with her son gone, what is she going to do?  Spoil Smiley of course!!  Thank you to this family for driving so far to adopt a homeless dog and for Casey for sponsoring him so he could be loved for the rest of his life!

Godiva is home!  Godiva now lives in Wesley Chapel with Denise, Miguel and their son and daughter.  This is the first dog for this family and they picked a great one.  Godiva has become a sweet, but playful puppy.  Her personality is a great combination of calmness and silliness.  She is going to get tons of love from this family and give them years of fun in return.  We waited for the perfect home for Godiva and it was worth it!

Ace is home!  Erika, her husband George and their children Chandra and Preston (pictured here) adopted Ace!  Ace is now called "Tally", after Tallahassee, where Chandra goes to college.  This family has been looking for a dog for a while and Ace needed a home that was relatively calm because he a bit afraid of loud noises and small children.  This family was perfect for him.  Preston even rushes home from his baseball games to ensure Ace isn't home alone too long.  Thank you Patricia for sponsoring this boy!

George is home!!  Mandi is a certified dog trainer at "Every Dog Has It's Day" dog training.  She has helped us save so many dogs with her dog training skills and experience.  We asked her to work with George, the blonde Standard Poodle and not only did she fix him, she adopted him!  George was a mess.  His owner died and he was not socialized.  He would not eat and was afraid of the world.  Mandi worked with him on his social skills and confidence.   In two weeks, George was a different dog!  He learned so many new things, but primarily that he could trust people and to enjoy life!  Thank you Mandi for giving George a life worth living and for all you do to help our dogs.

Calvin is home!! We adopted Calvin to Jessica who drove from Clearwater to meet him and has already emailed us photos of her "new little love" with a brand new hair cut! Jessica looks like a teenager but is actually in her early thirties (lets hope she doesn't mind us announcing that!).  Jessica works in a law firm and has grown up with dogs.  She has two nephews who will have playdates with Calvin, who loves kids!   Oh, and guess where Calvin sleeps?  Of course, next to his new mom!  Tomi and Linda, thank you for fostering Calvin, the lover boy!

Derby is home!  We adopted Derby to Amber, Jeff and their sons Sam and Max!  This is their first dog as a family as they wanted to wait until the boys were old enough before adding another family member.   Derby was the perfect candidate for a first dog because he is, well perfect!   We received a call from the family after having Derby for two days that they LOVE LOVE LOVE him and we are NOT getting him back!!  As you can, Derby and Max are making quite the connection!  Thank you Linda for caring for this big boy during his recuperation from eye surgery!

Lucky is home!  He was officially adopted by his foster family!  Nina, her husband Adam and their 2 kids pictured here-- Billy and Nini made Lucky part of their family.  This foster family helps the special needs dogs. Their hearts go out to the dogs that have nowhere else to go because nobody else wants them.  They foster the dogs that are sick, very old, blind, missing a leg, or have a deformed leg like Lucky.  They smother them with love, give them hope and they make them well.  Lucky hit the jackpot with this family.  Thank you to the PPR donors who made Lucky's leg surgery possible so he can go on to run and play like a normal pooch!!

Princess is home! Barbara and James drove down from Georgia to meet Princess, knowing that due to arthritis in her back leg, she may be on anti-inflammatories the rest of her life.  But this generous couple rescued their last dog, Molly, who just passed, so they know what it means to really rescue a dog.  A little limp and a pill every day, doesn't bother them!  So here's Princess getting a hug from mom, on her way out of the Florida heat!  Another lucky gal!!

Carina is HOME!  We adopted Carina to Carol who drove all the way from St. Petersburg to meet her.  Carol works part time so she has lots of time on her hands to spoil a pooch.  She lives in a community that is very dog oriented.  Carol is very dog experienced, goes on mile walks and her previous dogs lived to ripe old ages, which is what we hope for Carina. Carina got very attached to her foster mom and it became apparent she was a "one person" dog.  That is, she bonds very tightly to whomever she is with so we were looking for a single person that would be as devoted to her, as she was to them.  Carol is the one!  Thank you Jeanine for fostering Carina and to Carol for her love and patience with Carina.

Dafney is home!! We adopted Dafney to Deb, a young lady with TONS of dog rescue experience.  All of her dogs are rescues and she is very knowledgable about dog health and behavior.  Deb has two dogs of her own and Dafney makes three!  Deb has a history of putting her dogs first and providing whatever they need.  She has an active little Poodle mix that needed a playmate so these two will tire each other out.  Dafney is not a crippled dog, she is an acrobat and plays non stop, so this is a perfect match.  Deb is going to have two very tired pooches!  We are grateful to Deb for realizing that Dafney is perfect, just the way she is!

Hurley is home!  Luke and Sandy needed a companion for their Shorkie girl,  Leah.  These two snowbirds saw Hurley on the website and now Hurley is home and Leah has a brother to annoy!  Hurley now winters in Ft Pierce and summers in Maryland.  Not too shabby for a little dog who needed a home-- now he has two!!  Thank you Kim and Ron for helping this little guy find his new home with Luke and Sandy! 

 
Bambi is home!  Ken and Bonnie didn't have a dog.  They work from home and had the time and love to spoil a lucky pooch.  Bambi is now a member of the "Luckiest Dogs in the World Club".  She has two loving parents and a beautiful home.  This little girl was hours from euthanasia.  Kaye sponsored her, our volunteer picked her up and look at her now!!

Rubydoo is home!!  Holly and Joel drove quite a distance to find a companion for Ayke, their 90 lb Giant Schnauzer girl!  This couple has the experience they need to train and care for these huge dogs, plus they have an acre for the dogs to run.  Ayke is checking out her new sister.  Who knew that Rubydoo who's going to be 60 lbs, would not be the biggest dog in the house!

Evan is home!!  Evan went home with Paul and Jill to join their 60 lb female Giant Schnauzer!  Paul and Jill have 35 years of experience with big dogs.  Their one year old Giant Schnauzer had just lost her companion so Paul and Jill drove over two hours to take Evan to his new home.  With their kids grown and out of the house, their home is still full of fun and activity with what will soon be another 60lb Giant Schnauzer!!

Olivia is home!  We adopted Olivia to Amy and Joe and their daughter Julia.  Amy is a runner and Joe and avid walker so Olivia will get all the exercise she needs!  Amy and Joe have experience with big dogs so they know that exercise is key!  Julia is a stay at home mom so Olivia gets a full time mom to drive crazy!  PPR owes Patricia, Olivia's sponsor and JoAnne, Olivia's foster mom a huge thank you!

Lily is home!!  We adopted Lily to Vincent and Sharon who drove 4 hours to meet her.  Sharon is a groomer so Lily will always be beautiful. Vincent and Sharon don't have any children, but they have so much love to give that their dogs are treated like children.  Lily is now part of their family and will be loved forever.  Sharon is welcoming Lily with a hug,  to their family of five now!

Abigail is home!!  Abigail went home with Kelly, Don and their two children.  Their previous terrier lived to be 16 so they are looking forward to spending the next decade and a half with Abigail!  This family has lots of dog experience and mom is a homemaker who will be helping Abigail with her housetraining skills.  We sent this family Abigail's photo and they drove over two hours to come meet her!  This was a pooch with nowhere to go and nobody who cared about her.  Now she has a family who loved her so much just from a photo, they drove half way across the state just to meet her!

Zak is home! We adopted Zak to Heather and Samual and their two sons.  Heather works from home and she says she has a little shadow now who follows her everywhere.  Their cat is elderly and not as active as he used to be so Zak is providing some extra love and activity to their home.   Heather was at the vet getting a dental on her cat when she met Zak who was being loved by the vet techs.  Zak reached out to her with his paws and it was all over!!.  Now he is part of this loving family.  Thank you Michelle and Kris for sponsoring this little guy!

Libby is home!!  Paula, Bill and their 13 year old daughter adopted Libby who is showing her appreciation with a kiss!  This family has a 9 yr old Aussie named Sarah so they know what herding breeds are all about-- exercise, activity, toys and play!  Libby will be a very busy girl for the next 15 years!  Thank you Mandi and Jessica for fostering this little gal!

Emma Grace is home!!  We adopted Emma Grace to Bonnie who had just lost her beloved Suesue after 15 years.  Bonnie needed another girl in her life to spoil and so did Emma Grace!  These two will spend years and years together.  Another perfect match.  Patsy-- thank you for sponsoring this scared little pooch at animal control that nobody wanted.  Look at your girl now!!

Montana is home!  He has a family full of blonde cuties-- Caden, Liam and Bianca.   Helene and Bryan, Montana's new mom and dad will have their hands full!  Montana's tail has not stopped wagging since he has a family of his own now.  He will grow up with his brothers and sister and have lots of adventures with them.  Look at him posing-- he's ready to start the best part of his life!

Peppy is home!!  We adopted Peppy to Rich and Helen who needed another dog because they only had one-- their precious Papillon Sasha.  Everyone knew there was enough love in this home for a second dog.  Peppy is the lucky boy they picked to join their family.  Peppy is an older dog that so many others had given up on.  Rich and Helen were not looking for a perfect dog, just one they could spoil!  Thank you Kaye for sponsoring this little man who now has years of hugs ahead.

Twixy is home!  We adopted Twixy to Anthony and his 8 yr old daughter.  Anthony drove 2 hours to meet Twixy and of course he fell in love with her because she is the sweetest dog ever.  Anthony could have run down to the local pet store or breeder and purchased a puppy.  Instead he drove 2 hours to rescue one.  Another true rescue hero! 

Miss Piggy went home with Richard and Jennifer Law.  Jennifer is pictured here with a friend who also fell in love with Miss Piggy!  Richard and Jennifer have a  daughter and a small Schnoodle named Gixxie who are going to be so excited to meet their new sister!  Thank you to Donna for fostering Miss Piggy from her birth to her new life and to our sponsors and donors for helping with her care.

Sadie is home!!  Sadie has a new mom - Stacy, and two new brothers - Braden and Tanner.  This family is in love!  Sadie is such a lucky girl.  Her owner had hours to get rid of Sadie and called us before heading to animal control.  We got her on the website and within hours Lisa sponsored her and she was in a PPR foster home.  After some veterinary care she was ready for a home and now she is part of a beautiful family!  Another lucky dog who owes her life to PPR Volunteers, Donors and Adopters!!

Teddy Bear is home!!  We adopted Teddy Bear to Amanda and Adam who met Teddy and he stole their hearts.  Amanda's career required that she and Adam move to New York City so of course their precious Teddy Bear is now a New Yorker as well!  He is going to love that cold weather and his Pomeranian coat will keep him nice an toasty.  Thank you Jordan for fostering this boy and Amanda and Adam for giving him the home he deserves!

Georgia is home!!  Georgia is on the right and her new sister Nora is on the left.  Suzy adopted Georgia, then they went off on their first family vacation!  Here they are posing next to a babbling brook, the first of many adventures in Georgia's life.  Georgia lived a very sheltered life before she came to PPR.  Now she is a social butterfly with a sister to wrestle and a mom that has a history of giving her dogs amazing lives.  We love Suzy for rescuing Georgia instead of buying from a breeder and we love Melissa for sponsoring Georgia which saved her life.  

Spicey is home!!  Spicey's new life is full of love from Melissa, Justin, their beautiful daughter and 2 other pooches!  Spicey has a bit of separation anxiety.  With this big family he never has to be alone because he always has Romeo and Angel his furry brothers around.  As Spicey starts to believe he's really HOME, his separation anxiety will go away.  His new family is so patient which gives Spicey the confidence he needs to recover even faster.  Another example of a family adopting a dog that isn't perfect, but they love him anyway.

Chester is home!!  You can't meet Chester and not love him.  It's impossible!  Kristen and Stanton were put to the test.  When Chester's foster mom went on vacation, her friends Kristen and Stanton volunteered to dogsit Chester.  Little did they know that Chester had other plans.  Chester started working on them immediately with his adorable looks, silly antics and cuddliness!  Within a week, he stole their hearts and had himself a mom and dad that adored him!  Thank you Deb for sponsoring him and Sarah for fostering him!

Toots is home!!!  We adopted Toots to Kristine, Matthew and their two precious daughters.   Toots also now has a Maltese sister named Gracie and a brother named Dudley!  This is a home so full of love for him he's not going to know what to do.  Toots is a very active dog.  He needs lots of activity and these two little girls and his doggie siblings are going to keep Toots happy, busy and tired!  Thank you Camilla for fostering this boy and thank you Kristine and Matthew for rescuing him!

Quincy and Wrigley are home!!  Jan and Scott adopted this pair after losing their beloved Pepe and Chelsea who lived long, happy lives.  This couple knows how to spoil a dog!  Dogs are family, not pets!  They provide only the best care to the furrier members of their family.  Quincy and Wrigley have ridiculously happy lives to look forward to.  And everyone knows there's not a better state of happiness than RIDICULOUSLY happy!!

Lucy is home!!!  We adopted Lucy to Nissa and her son.  Nissa is a Professor (not a model as you may suspect from this photo) and she and her son are dog-lovers.  They wanted to rescue a dog in need.  Coincidentally, Lucy was in need of a family -- a perfect match.  We have to send a big thank you to Linda for fostering Lucy during the two months while her leg healed.  This photo makes all the hard work worth it!

Porkchop went home with Kristle and Bill.  Porkchop, who's new name is Gizmo,  has a Shih Tzu brother to play with named Ziggy and a new mom and dad to spoil him.  Gizmo has no idea the years of fun and love that are in his future!  Thank you Donna for fostering this little boy from the day he was born until handing him off to the loving arms of his new mom and dad to start his life!

Desi is home!!  Desi went home with Lynn and her two boys Alexi and Quinn.  This pup is going to be the center of attention in this home and grow up with two brothers to play with.  You can see Desi is very grateful to Lynn for adopting him!!  Thank you to Donna for fostering this stinker from birth to his new home!!

Norman is home!! We adopted Norman to Linda and Richard, two young retirees, who have a spoiled Bichonpoo gal named Abby. So, of course, they needed a boy to spoil and it just so happens that Norman needed a girlfriend. Look at Norman giving Abby a smack right on the lips. Match made by cupid! Thank you to Patricia for sponsoring our sweet boy Norman and to Jen for being his terrific foster mom.

Bach is home!! Phyllis and Terry immediately fell in love with one of the sweetest faces to come through PPR, that of our tiny poodle Bach. They were looking for a little brother for 10 year old Teddi the shih tzu to pal around with when not snuggling up with mom and dad. Bach is the perfect match. Thanks go out to Deb and Greg for sponsoring Bach and to Marylynn for being such a great foster mom. Just look at this happy family!

Bella is home!! Diana applied for a blind grey/black poodle before we even had one! Then along came Bella within a couple of days and the match was made. Bella went home with her new family the same day Poodle and Pooch Rescue took her in. Talk about hitting the jackpot! This family was looking for that special dog to love and Bella came just at the right time. Thank you Patricia for sponsoring me and thank you to the Renaldo family for your big big hearts!! Bella will live a happy secure life from now on.

Charlie is home! Craig and Candi fell in love with this handsome doxy fella over the web site.  They had to anxiously wait to pick him up because of previous vacation plans but now he is home forever! As you can see in the photo, it is a love fest! Charlie will join the 2 family cats to live out the rest of their years spoiled silly!! Candi and Craig are RV'ers. So Charlie gets to go on vacation with his mom and dad and see the country. RV dogs are so lucky. Most dogs love riding in cars, the outdoors and being with mom and dad all the time. This is the RV life! Plus they get to meet spoiled dogs from all over the country. Charlie has so many adventures ahead. You really made this one possible from start to finish. We hope these photos fill your heart!!

Tinker is home! Rebecca and Kevin, Tinker's foster parents, could not let him go! They have a dog named Schmoopy who also begged mom and dad to keep Tink. Schmoopy and Tink play all day so the thought of splitting up this pair was unthinkable. Obviously, like all of our foster parents, this couple takes extraordinary care of their dogs. Tinker hit the jackpot! When we got him, he was full of ticks and terrified.  Now he's a dog with so much personality and so loving that he found his way into the hearts of his foster parents who simply couldn't bear the thought of letting him go. Another "foster failure" and we couldn't be happier!! Tinker too!!

Simon is home! Lydia and her daughter came to meet Simon and knew right away he was the one for them. He will be a spoiled only dog and have someone to hang around with all the time.  Mom works from home and now Simon can be her "assistant" during the day. When the teenagers get home from school then its play time. Thank you to Linda R for being such a great foster mom to Simon and a big thank you also to Patricia for keeping him off of Death Row.  

Murphy is home!  Jackie adopted Murphy, who's new name is Twinkie.  Jackie's nieces are pictured here with Max the Schnauzer and Little Bit the Poodle.  Max has a mad crush on Twinkie, evident by his loving stare at her!   Jackie has a heart for the "underdogs".  She understands Murphy's needs and has an acupuncturist to help Murphy continue to do great.  Jackie loves Murphy to pieces but it's Murphy who won the lottery!  Thank you Jackie for opening your heart to a homeless, older, imperfect, loving, wonderful dog that needs you!

Bruno is home!  Bruno went home with Sarah, a teacher.  Sarah helped to raise and train her parents Goldendoodle, Rosie.  She decided it was time for her own dog to train and accompany her on her daily runs.  Bruno is a young pup that needs exercise and a mom with some experience.  We call this a perfect match!  Bruno has playdates with his Grandma's Labradoodle where they chase each other all over the house and gets his daily runs with his new mom.  Thank you Susan and Lisa for sponsoring Bruno!

Crackerjack is home!!  We adopted Crackerjack to Tammy, her hubby Kevin and their 8 year old daughter.  Crackerjack gets to join this family and their Westie Abby and their Persian cat.  Crackerjack is going to have lots to do in this home, so many other pets to chase and a little girl to grow up with.  Thank you Tomi for fostering this little puppy and so many others who contributed to the care of Crackerjack and his brother and sister pups!

Camilla is home!  We adopted Camilla to Lynda, Robert and their 3 children.  Camilla joins this family and their dog "Snickers" .  Snickers is adored so it was important for Camilla to love him too.  Camilla fit right in.  She and Snickers worked out an arrangement where Camilla stole Snickers' bed but Snickers got a new bed.  When Camilla started to steal all the toys though, Snickers decided to take them back which has resulted in lots of play for both dogs and family entertainment.  We are so thankful for this family and their dedication to all of their pets, even their guinea pigs!  Camilla is a very lucky girl!

Taro is home!  We adopted Taro to Tim, Victoria and their 3 kids.  Their prior Irish Setter passed at a very old age so it was time to add a new dog to the family.  Taro, like most pups, needs an active lifestyle.  These kids will ensure that Taro gets to burn off his energy with lots of playtime.  Taro is going to live the good life with his new family, as he drove off in style.  The foster moms are often crying and smiling when they say their good byes.  Thank you Tomi for a job well done!

London and Paris are home now!  These two came to us when they were 2 days old.  The pups and their mom were in bad shape.  Our vets and their foster mom did a great job keeping them all healthy.  Patricia, Mauricio and their two daughters adopted London and Paris who join their other 2 dogs Ozzy and Pinina to complete this perfect family.  This is a home full of fun, love and dog experience!  Just what every puppy needs.!

Skippy is home!!  Skippy now lives with Patrick, Jennifer and their 10 year old daughter.  This family now shares their home with 2 pooches-- Skippy and Haylee.  Haylee is their 12 year old Labrador, that's still going strong.  She's still active and playful and now has a brother to play with.  This family originally wanted a to adopt a girl, but when they saw Skippy, the knew he was the one!  Thank you Roberta for sponsoring Skippy so we could save him and make him healthy!

Mike, Lisa and their two beautiful girls adopted Faith!  This family had a Golden Retriever named Ben.  Ben was adored and lived for 14 glorious years with them.   They lost Ben in October and needed another dog to complete their family.  Mike and Lisa waited until the summer, for the girls to be out of school before they adopted their next family member.   Faith is now the luckiest dog in the world, with  14 years of fun ahead of her.  We are so happy for Faith and grateful to Mike, Lisa and their smiling girls.

Emi and Yuki are home!!  We adopted these two pups to Tomi who is a dog expert!!  Tomi runs the Orlando Canine Country Club,  a premier dog boarding facility in Orlando.  Tomi was Emi and Yuki's foster mom and when it came time to find them homes, Tomi said, "They are already home!".  Emi and Yuki get to come to work with Tomi everyday so the next time you board your dogs at the Orlando Canine Country Club, stop by and see them!

Bella is home!!  Mary and her family adopted this little stinker!!  This family lost their beloved Sheltie "Paige" who had a long happy life with them.  Now Bella gets to be the lucky girl to live her whole life being loved by this family.  She has so much to look forward to now!

Daisy Duck is home!  We adopted Daisy Duck to Colleen and her husband Greg who have a Westie named Sydney.  Colleen and Greg just had to put their dog Paxton to sleep so they wanted another dog to love and keep Sydney company.  Colleen is retired so she has lots of time to devote to Daisy.  We know this family and how much they love their dogs.  We are so happy that little Daisy gets to be part of a family that will cherish her.  Thank you to Patricia and Sherry who donated to save her.  Here's Daisy with Colleen and her son on their first day with their new baby!  Colleen's face says it all!

Brewster is home!!  Erika was looking for her first dog.  She's a smart, caring girl so she knew rescuing a dog was the right thing to do.  She cared about the dog's personality but wasn't particular about a breed.  Brewster is perfect for her because we don't know his breed and neither does he!  Erika is active and so is Brewster.  These two go for long walks and this weekend Brewster goes on his first boating trip!  Erika sent us a photo of Brewster in his flashy new bright orange lifevest.  He looks so proud!  Brewster was homeless a week ago and now he has a mom AND a boat!!

Bongo is home!!  We adopted Bongo to Gayle an Al.  Bongo joins their Poodle/Terrier mix named Shunji.  Bongo is a high energy puppy who needs a mom and dad dedicated to him and willing to give him the attention he needs.  He also needs another medium sized dog to play with to help burn off some energy.  This home has both -- it's perfect for this boy!

Buckaroo is home!!  We adopted Buckaroo to Robert and Erlinda who's previous Beagle lived to be 16.5 years old!  Buckaroo is going to be a spoiled dog in this home.  This couple provides unbelievable care for their dogs.  Buckaroo had a tough life and there is not a more deserving dog than him for a home like this.  This couple and this dog is what dog rescue is all about.  Robert and Erlinda, who could have any dog they wanted-- a cute Beagle puppy from a breeder or a pet store maybe.  But instead they sought out an older dog that had lived a tough life so they could spoil him and give him the life he should have had.  Buckaroo has alot of great years ahead of him.  He is the luckiest dog in the world to have this couple as his new mom and dad.  We can't thank them enough for being so caring and generous.  

Clover is home!!  Clover came to PPR unable to walk.  She could crawl but not walk.  She had lived in a cage her whole life so her back legs were deformed and she had severe patella luxation and a torn ACL.  One surgery later and this dog is RUNNING!  After surgery she could stand, then she could  walk a few steps, then walk around the house and now she can run.  Clover is now making up for lost time because she won't stay still!  Her foster mom and dad, Michele and Karl, simply couldn't let her go.  Clover's a smart girl and made sure they fell in love with her sweet side before she unleashed the wild girl she turned into after PPR fixed her legs!

Dane is home!!  We adopted Dane to Mike, Diana, their son Zack and their Great Dane named Gracey Day. This family caters to their pets including taking them on vacation. This home is going to be so much fun for Dane.  Life has changed for this funny, affectionate, deserving boy and we are so happy.  Thank you Lisa for fostering him-- now Dane is part of a wonderful family.  Adopting a dog in his senior years is the most unselfish, generous act we see in rescue.  Mike, Diana and Zach are true heroes!

Winston is home!!  Winston's real name was "Peluche".  He belonged to Iraida, Edgar and their two sons.  They went on vacation and Peluche got loose from the person that was watching him.  Animal control picked him up after Peluche was running loose on his own for a while.  His eyes were horribly injured.  We had to remove one eye and perform surgery on the other.  Iraida and Edgar were so happy to see Peluche again!  Everyone was in tears except for Peluche who would not stop smothering his mom in kisses!!  Thank you to Scot & Pamela and Dee for donating the funds to pay for the veterinary care for Peluche.  What an incredibly happy ending!

Logan is home!  We adopted Logan to Andy, Michelle and their two girls.  Logan needed a home with lots of activity and energy.  He needed kids, other dogs, a big home, a big yard and of course a pool!  He got it all!  Logan has a Weimaraner brother to knock around, 2 girls to chase, a big home to run full speed through, a yard to hunt in and dig up and a pool to wash off in when he's all dirty!  The perfect home for him or any dog!  Thank you to Mandi, Leigh and Deb his foster moms and sponsor for giving Logan his perfect world.

Princess is home!  We adopted Princess, now known as "Milly" to Annie.  Annie is an attorney who grew up with family pets and it was time for one of her own.  She has already reported back that Milly is doing great.  Annie wanted a dog that would enjoy being an only spoiled pet and would take walks with her around Lake Eola.  This is the perfect home for Princess Milly.  She loves to hog the attention and strut her stuff in public so walks around downtown will be the highlight of her day!  Thank you Deb for sponsoring this gal so she could continue to share her silliness!

MayMay is home!  Maymay went home with Amy, Don, their two sons and their Pug "Tuffy" the black Pug pictured here.  This family has owned Pugs and Boston Terriers their whole lives and has a great history of making each one a part of the family.  They honor their commitment of caring for their dogs for a lifetime.  Maymay is a lucky girl -- two brothers to spoil her and a handsome Pug to play with!

Daisy is hone!  Daisy was adopted by Caren, her husband Jerry and their black Poodle "Duffy".  Caren was Daisy's foster mom who watch Daisy transform from a terrified, malnourished little girl into a playful, happy proud Poodle.  Daisy has grown attached to Caren and she just didn't want to go anywhere else.  Now she doesn't have to!  Thank you Caren for your patience in fostering Daisy and for helping Daisy to trust again and enjoy life!
