CAPTAIN

male – MIXED BREED – ADULT – AT SHELTER SINCE MAR 2025

Captain is a gentle, loyal soul who’s been through a lot but never lost his sweet spirit. He was rescued from the streets of Miami-Dade along with his companion Cricket, and together they raised a litter of puppies who have all since been adopted. Now it’s Captain’s turn to be someone’s beloved family member.

He’s calm, affectionate, and enjoys quiet moments with people he trusts. Captain walks well on a leash, appreciates a good nap in the sun, and would love a home with a soft bed and gentle hands. While he’d be overjoyed to be adopted with Cricket, he’s also ready to thrive on his own with the right family.

Captain deserves the chance to finally live the good life. Come meet him and see if he’s the missing piece to your heart.

TIMMY

MALE – MIX – ADULT – AT SHELTER SINCE DEC 2024

Meet Timmy

Once upon a time, Timmy was a tired, skinny dog with more heart than strength. Found wandering and hungry, he came to the shelter in December 2024 looking for a second chance. And he grabbed it with his tail wagging.

Fast forward to today—Timmy is healthy, happy, and ready to meet his forever family. He still loves snuggles and being around people, but his favorite time of day is when he gets to explore outside. Whether he’s sniffing every blade of grass or following the breeze, Timmy uses his nose like a little explorer discovering the world. He’s motivated by treats, walks well on a leash (even if he gets a bit distracted by all the excitement around him), and would thrive with someone who appreciates his curious spirit.

Timmy is looking for a home filled with love, patience, and plenty of outdoor time. If you’re ready to give a sweet, resilient pup a new chapter, Timmy might just be your perfect match.

HAZEL

FEMALE – MIX BREED – YOUNG

Meet Hazel:
Our Little Miracle Dog

Hazel’s story is one of incredible resilience. After a tragic incident where she was shot in the back with a BB gun and left paralyzed, Hazel has made remarkable progress. Thanks to the dedication of our staff and volunteers, she is now walking—and she no longer needs her stroller! It’s amazing to see how quickly she gets around and how joyfully she plays with the other dogs in the yard.

Hazel’s upper body is strong—just like her spirit. She’s a people-loving pup with a heart full of determination. While she once relied on stroller rides to explore the world, she now walks proudly on her own.

Hazel would thrive as a second dog in a household, as she absolutely loves the company of other dogs. She’s ready for adoption, and meet-and-greets can be scheduled to find her perfect match. The shelter team will support her new family every step of the way to ensure a smooth transition.

If you have the love and commitment to continue Hazel’s journey, come meet this extraordinary girl at Dogs And Cats Forever.

NALA

FEMALE – LABRADOR/TERRIER MIX – BORN APPROX: SEP 2020 – AT SHELTER SINCE: MAY 2023

Meet Nala, a beautiful Labrador/Terrier mix, born around September 2020, who has been at Dogs and Cats Forever since May 2023. Affectionately called “Nala Bear” by her volunteer angel, this sweet girl has been waiting far too long for her forever home, and she truly deserves the chance to be someone’s beloved companion.

Nala is such a good girl whose tail quite literally never stops wagging. She’s full of life, easily entertained with toys, and loves to play ball or splash around in the pool. She is energetic and playful, yet just as happy to curl up beside you, soak up belly rubs, or snuggle in bed at night. About once a month, she gets the chance to leave the shelter for a special sleepover with her volunteer angel, and she has never had an accident in the house. She proves time and again how well she thrives in a home environment. But aside from that one night a month, Nala spends all her time in the shelter, still waiting for her forever family.

While she can be a little selective with her doggie friends, Nala adores people and makes friends easily wherever she goes. After spending so long in the shelter, she’s ready to finally have a family—a place where she can be your loyal companion, your couch buddy, and your forever “Nala Bear.” Please come meet her and see if she’s the missing piece of your heart.

WHISKEY (AKA BIG MAC)

MALE – TERRIER MIX – BORN SOMETIME 2020 – AT SHELTER SINCE: AUG 2023

Whiskey is a friendly and easygoing Pity boy, born sometime in 2020. He’s been at the shelter since August 2023 and, despite being such an awesome dog, he hasn’t received the attention he truly deserves. Whiskey has a calm, gentle nature and quickly warms up to new people. He isn’t a big cuddler, but he loves a good belly rub and gentle pets, showing his soft side once he feels comfortable and secure in his surroundings. With time and trust, he’s the kind of dog who settles in beautifully and becomes a loyal companion.

Whiskey enjoys simple pleasures like playing with stuffed toys, spending time in the yard, and even cooling off in the pool on warm days. He loves going for walks and is very good on a leash, though he can be a bit strong at times.
Whiskey would thrive in a home with adults and teenagers who will give him the chance to open up and show just how wonderful he really is. Once you meet him, it’s hard not to fall for his charm.
