Dog news for the Sarasota Florida area
By Suzanne Quick Both dogs are really coming into their own personalities. As in the beginning, Ralphie is acclimating the most quickly. He’s wagging his tail and bouncing around the house. Easy to do when your whole body wags with a flip of the tail. If this dog could talk, he would be all giggles [...]
By Suzanne Quick This morning came around way too quickly. My efforts to treat the dogs with some raw chicken necks (my other dogs love them) were rewarded with a round of diarrhea. Ugh! Everyone seems fine now. Joe is still sequestered in the crate, he doesn’t seem to want to come out, and I [...]
Sounds delicious right? Well check out these two adoptable pups you could just eat up! Meet Andy, he’s a brown, brindle and white Boxer/American Pit Bull Terrier mix. Andy is thought to be about 4 years old and he weighs a mere 35 pounds. He is neutered and up-to-date on his shots. He has been [...]
Day 3: Foster care By Suzanne Quick These two little dogs have been through so much and yet are showing so much resilience. Joe the Toy Poodle whose fur was so matted that he needed to be shaved is bouncing back. I found a sweater that I thought would fit and he let me put [...]

By Farrel Hansen Sarasota, please meet Dawn, your adoptable dog of the week. I was pleased to learn that we would finally meet the beautiful Chow I’ve seen and heard so much about. Dawn was an absolute sweetheart and it’s hard to imagine why after 6 months she’s still at the shelter. She was very [...]
By Farrel Hansen Friday is finally here and we have not one but TWO adoptable dogs for your viewing pleasure, Sarasota. First, meet miss Chloe! She is a female white and tan Bulldog and Catahoula Leopard Hound mix. The staff at Animal Services believes she is about a year and a half old. When Kristen [...]
Okay, so we don’t know what’s eating Gilbert Grape (other than in the movie) but we do know that today is March 23rd which means it is National Puppy Day! Do you need another reason to consider pet adoption today? If adopting a new furry animal isn’t in your immediate plans, please visit one of [...]
By Farrel Hansen Well Sarasota, it’s the end of a crazy Spring Break week here. Since it’s Friday, you deserve to sit back with an ice cold one while you check out the adoptable dog of the week: Mr. Pauly. I’m sure you all remember Petey from the Little Rascals, right? Well that is exactly [...]
