Molly came to us in August of 2011, she

was just 5 months old. We thought we

had found her a forever home but it was

not meant to be. Now 6 months later

Molly is with us again asking for a

miracle; to find a new family that will

keep her and share their love and home

for as long as you both shall live!

Yes, in a way it is like a marriage, it’s an

agreement to love and protect each

other everyday of every year of your

lives together. Come and visit Molly at

the SPCA Campus today.

Two years ago this sweet dog came to the SPCA with fractures in both hind legs and the only way he could walk was by hopping using his front legs.  Thanks to Veterinary Health Care Associates in Winter Haven, Lemondrop had corrective surgery and was adopted. 

His owner of two years had to give him up but that did not break his spirit.  If ever there was a dog that everyone would love it is Lemondrop.  He will be by your side always looking to you for your approval and love.  He gives unconditionally and completely his love to you asking for the same in return.  Is your heart empty?  Lemondrop will fill your heart.

Thanks to the SPCA, Chubz has made a full recovery.

With protruding ribs and only patches of hair left on his slight, five-pound frame, a three-month old Labrador/Retriever mix arrived at the SPCA severely malnourished and dehydrated. The veterinarian’s diagnosis for the stray puppy was bleak—he may not make it through the night—and there was nothing the SPCA staff could do other than hope.

Hope is exactly what SPCA Adoption Staff and Foster Mom Michelle did.

“I wanted to give him the chance he deserved,” said Michelle.

Even though the puppy was full of internal parasites and incredibly anemic due to an infestation of fleas, Michelle took the pup, now lovingly named “Chubz” home to love, nurture and monitor. She limited his food consumption to prevent him from gorging. After two nights of sluggishness, Chubz began to improve, bouncing around a bit. Michelle “saw a little puppy emerge from this sick, emancipated, hairless little body.”

Despite his recovery from the parasites and starvation, Chubz still battled his skin and hair condition. A return visit to the SPCA Adoption Center Exam Room revealed on top of everything else, Chubz had a bacterial skin infection.

“It was a rough process for him,” remarked Michelle. “At times I felt like we were going backwards because during treatment he began to look worse.” Luckily the treatment worked though, transforming Chubz into a beautiful, healthy puppy full of life and energy.

Now that little bundle of energy is the delight of his adoptive family. Michelle’s diligent effort as an SPCA Foster Mom paid off, giving Chubz a second chance at a happy, health life. Find out how you can become a foster or help other animals like Chubz.
