Story
I rescued Bowie during the Covid lockdown. She was 10-weeks-old. I had another dog already, but his housemate died of old age a few months before I adopted Bowie. She is now 5-yrs-old. She is a great dog who loves people, a true lover who always wants to snuggle and be by your side. She started behaving aggressively with my other dog a year ago. It was only when company was visiting, she gets jealous of the other dog getting attention. It started out with just growling, but I have now had to separate them from bad fights 4 times. Today was the worst. I thought one of them was going to die. This was the first time a fight broke out with just me being home (it was over our neighbor’s dog saying hello through the fence). Bowie is an amazing dog, but she cannot live in a home with other pets or children. And I am a 64-yr-old widow who can’t handle the fear and risk of having them do this again. Bowie is eager to learn and listens and is such a lover. I am heartbroken.

Story
Peppy is ready to move on to her furever home. Satchel's rescued Peppy from Animal Services in the fall of 2017, so she has been a shelter dog for a long time. This poor girl was a starvation case and learning to trust people came a little hard for her. Thanks to our caring staff and volunteers, she is now able to live her life again, without constant fear of being abandoned or mistreated. While Peppy can be a little uneasy on first greeting, it doesn't take long for her charming personality to show through. Once she knows you, she is perhaps one of the sweetest little characters in the shelter. She is definitely a comedian. She loves a good game of catch me if you can and loves rolling on her back and playing "patty cake". She also believes she is a lap dog, despite her 50 pound size. She may be 11 years of age, but she certainly doesn't act it. She also adores car rides. She will, however, try her hardest to sit shotgun. She also does great with other dogs. Peppy will likely always need some maintenance for her skin and ears. She is currently on Apoquel and gets Cytopoint when she get a major flare up. Her ears have always been a source of discomfort and unfortunately she does not like anyone messing with them. Her ears need in office vet care when she has flare ups. We know Peppy is the perfect dog for someone. If you think maybe that someone could be you, please submit your application (no commitment) found on our website, at Satchelslastresort.org.

Story
* SPECIAL NEEDS - ANXIETY * Bernie is an interesting little fellow with enough quirks to keep you guessing for a life time. He comes off as very shy but he loves to meet people. When he knows his favorite volunteers are at Satchel's, you can guarantee Bernie will let them know with an excited bark and stretches saying "it's time to go!" Bernie has a Woof Pack leader here at Satchel's and has become a big explorer and the longer the walk, car ride or adventure, the better, though sometimes he doesn't want to come back, and will stop and sit in protest. He adores running and traveling so if you take morning jogs, train for marathons, or travel across country, Bernie would be your perfect partner. He is gentle with his toys, and has no problem sharing his things with you. Bernie loves all life and has only shown adoration or curiosity with whatever comes his way. He is also a BIG time water dog, playing in the pool, splashing in a puddle, or even attempting to cool off in his water bowl, H2O is the way to go! Although not a big boy, Bernie is a fence jumper/climber and can scale a 6 foot fence without hesitation making leaving him alone in a yard for even a few minutes not an option. Bernie suffers with a severe anxiety disorder. He takes medication for his anxiety but still has panic attacks from time to time. He is looking for a home with a patient, loving family who will be there to help him through the "bad" times. Just 6 years old, with so much love to give, this amazing pup is just waiting for that special person who will keep him feeling safe and loved. If you think you have the time and patience to give Bernie his forever home, please submit the adoption application (no commitment) found on our website, www.satchelslastresort.org, and an adoption counselor will set up an appointment for you to meet this special boy.

Stone

Labrador Retriever Mixed Breed (Medium)

Male, 7 yrs 11 mos
Sarasota, FL
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Stone, the affectionate, laid-back companion who enjoys the simple things in life. Stone enjoys nothing more than lounging all day with his favorite people and doing zoomies around the yard. While he may be cautious of strangers at first, he’s ready to give kisses to anyone he’s comfortable with! Stone can be nervous to new situations or busy environments, but nothing that a toy can’t solve! He’s had a difficult relationship with leashes via leash grabbing, but has worked hard with a trainer to get better. He knows his basic obedience and will happily show off with a little motivation. Stone is sensitive to raised voices and arguing, so he would do best in an adult-only home with an experienced handler. He’s also not fond of dogs, and would prefer to be an only dog where he can soak up all the attention. If you’re looking for a sweet, easygoing dog who loves a quiet life and plenty of kisses, Stone could be the perfect fit for you!

His sweet, loyal nature makes him the perfect fit for a family looking for a one-and-only furry best friend. Thor would do best in a single-pet household where he can soak up all the attention and bond deeply with his people.

Story
Nevis is a 10 year young retriever. While this Golden Girl's graying chin shows her age a bit, her coat is soft, and her eyes are bright. This gentle companion stays by your side even for extended walks, and loves exploring her surroundings in her own little independent way. She does well in public, and on a leash. One thing that makes her special is that she seems to prefer affection over treats. She's the right size for just about any forever home.

Story
Sweet Hope 💞 A few months ago, one of our volunteers found Hope hiding in someone’s yard - skinny, flea ridden with patchy fur and so scared, yet seemed to secretly be wanting help 🥺 It was clear that she had been dumped. She caught her, got her cleaned up and into a cozy foster home to start her journey. Sadly, she had been overbred and was heartworm positive 💔 it was clear that Hope had not had a wonderful life, but we were determined to change that. Hope settled right in with a house full of dogs 🐕 One thing dumped breeder dogs have in common is that they all LOVE dogs ☺️ Hope is a much healthier girl now. She has been spayed, completed heartworm treatment and is ready for her new life to begin. She is most comfortable with other dogs and having a fenced yard and requires those things in her forever home. She is definitely a flight risk and needs someone who is confident in keeping her safe. She is not a dog that can ever get out a door. We will help provide the tools to keep her safe though. She loves women, but is nervous with men and children. Hope is shy, but still playful, and loves the finer things in life like blankets, pillows, beds and couches - the things she never had ❤️ If you can give Hope the peaceful loving home that she needs, please complete an adoption application or email us if you have one on file. Hope is in St. Petersburg and her adoption fee is $400. She is about 3 years old and 50lbs. 💞 www.love4pawsfl.org/adoption-process
