He follows you everywhere, you will never experience loneliness after meeting WINSTON. He is very smart, he enjoys a leash walking stroll, loves car rides, plays well with other dogs, and ignores the cat in his foster home. If you leave something on your counter, he will swipe it – typical of the breed. He has a lot of energy, and needs lots of exercise both mentally and physically stimulating. He is not happy being left alone for long periods of time, but has great house manners. He sleeps in his dog bed. He is housetrained, no issues – so long as he is let out frequently. He learns quickly, he is focused on you, and he aims to please. He will bark at intruders, but it has not been excessive. WINSTON is ready to begin his journey with a family of his very own that can run with him, entertain him, and play with him often. If you are ready for a bouncy intelligent high-energy large pup, look no further. WINSTON will be a dedicated devoted companion.

Exercise in your fenced yard, leash walks, patience, and additional training on your family’s part to be the best dog he can be! Please do your homework on the breed, they are not for everyone. They are high energy, have a high-prey drive, and require a grassy yard to exercise in that is fenced on all 4 sides with a minimum 6-foot fence. WINSTON is not recommended if you have children under 8. WINSTON is eager to learn, athletic, agile, wickedly smart, and a velcro dog. WINSTON want to be an active participant in your daily life.

DOG BREED: Terrier mix

DOG WEIGHT: 15 lbs

GENDER: Male

GOOD WITH DOGS: Yes, prefer a home with similar size pup.

GOOD WITH CATS: unknown

COLOR: Black/Tan

Hey there, I’m Nick and I’m a 5 1/2 year old, 17 lb “scruffy terrier” type boy mixed with sweetness and lots of love.  I’ve been in my foster home for a little while now and my foster parents think I’m one of the sweetest, most well mannered doggies they’ve ever fostered. Since being here, I am now house broken, learning to take short walks on the leash, crate trained, and I even know some basic obedience like stay, no and come Nick.  I’m a true lap warmer, I just love being next to either one of my foster parents. I get along with all the pups in the home, but I wouldn’t mind being your one and only.  I do love toys, and catching water from the hose, I really like doing that! I would like to sleep with my human but I’m fine in a dog bed or on the recliner. I’m treat motivated so I’m sure I can learn lots of neat things if you want me to. I haven’t been cat tested, but while at the vet I met a couple of children and I was well behaved with them. I’m the perfect size for snuggling and I love to be brushed. I’m only crated when the parents go to work because I am such a good boy. I will let you know if anyone is at the front door too! When I got here, they found out I was Heartworm positive, but please don’t let that stop you from adopting me! My friends at VIP Rescue take care of all the expenses associated with the treatment, but you will need to live within 1 hour of St. Petersburg to get me to my time sensitive appointments with the “dog”ter. I’ve had one appointment already and did well, and I’ll need 2 more (time and date sensitive) to complete my treatment. I will need to hang low while undergoing the treatment, no running around and only very short walks until the Vet says it’s ok to resume normal doggie fun! You will be given all the information should you want to adopt me! I’m going to be just fine and I promise to give you lots of love and loyalty. Oh, did I mention I love being in the backyard watching for squirrels and sitting by the pool chilling? Yup, that’s some of my favorite things to do, so I really need a fenced in back yard please. I’ve am neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and on my heartworm and flea prevention as well. My bags are packed, I’m ready to go. Might it be to your house? Please visit www.viprescue.org to fill out an adoption application! Hope to meet you soon!

AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION!!!

Let’s show Max some love by and sharing this post like crazy to help him find his “fur”ever family!!!

DOG NAME:  Max/Largo

DOB:  7/19/2010

DOG BREED: Malti-Poo

DOG WEIGHT:  17 lbs at intake – ***UPDATE 8-26-23 he weight 13.4 lbs – a few more to go.

GENDER:  Male

HOUSE TRAINED:  working on it, as long as he is taken out frequently.

LOCATION:  Largo, FL

GOOD WitH DOGS: Yes

COLOR:  white

Hi everyone, I’m Max!  I am an 13 years young 17 pound at intake (***UPDATE 8-26-23 he weight 13.4 lbs – a few more to go) malti-poo, and I hope it’s gonna be a LUCKY 13 where I get my new “hooman” “fur” ever home soon, wouldn’t that be “paw”some!

I recently came to VIP Rescue when my family moved away and couldn’t take me with them. The great folks here didn’t hesitate to take me under their wing. First stop was the dog-tor for a checkup. I had a dental cleaning and had a bump on the side of my mouth removed. It never seemed to bother me and it definitely didn’t stop me from eating! I was panting quite a bit, (heck, I was nervous with all these new faces around!) but Doc said there was no sign of any heart disease or murmur, and likely caused by my “Wittle chubbie” self and it should get better after I’ve lost a few pounds and maybe, just maybe, I can do a little more walking when it’s not so hot out!

Other than a quarterly cytopoint injection for my allergies, I am very healthy boy!   I have beautiful curly white hair that’ll need to kept groomed, so please keep that in mind if you’re wanting to adopt me. 

Are you looking for a friend who will follow you wherever you go?  I’m very easy going and will find a nice place to nap in whatever room you are in. I do know what to do if you bring me outside, but I won’t tell you I need to go out though, so frequent potty breaks are a must!  Learning a new routine is a lot at my age, but my foster mom says I’m catching on quickly!  I’m not a fan of the outside (it is H.O.T.) so she carries me out to the grass. Then I go stand by the door until she lets me back into the AC. Ha!  I love taking short walks early in the morning, and maybe in the evening, and I will sit nicely while you put my harness on. I bark a little when foster Mom first leaves, and when she comes home, even after a short time away, I am usually asleep somewhere.  This could be because there are other dogs in this house so I’m not really alone. That being said, I get along with the other dogs; though I favor human company.   I DO NOT like to be left alone for long periods of time, so If you’re retired or work from home, that’ll work for me. 

I am neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and on heartworm and flea prevention.  What do you think?  Do I sound like the boy for you?  My foster mom thinks I’m super sweet.  Sometimes I give her ankle kisses just to let her know how happy I am.  

I almost forgot, I know how to play fetch!  I found a little tennis ball in the toy box and we played a short game inside.  I’ve been told I can take the tennis ball with me!  I wasn’t interested in any of the squeaky toys, but I knew just what to do with that ball.  I have the picture to prove it too!!!

Nikki / Redington Beach

Available for adoption!!

DOG NAME: Nikki/Redington

Beach DOB: 8/16/2013

DOG BREED: Maltipoo

GENDER: Female

HOUSE TRAINED: Peepad trained working on house manners

LOCATION: Redington Beach

GOOD WITH KIDS: 12+ respectful

GOOD WITH DOGS: some, no big dogs. *could be your one and only *If you have a current pup and meet and greet with pup will be required.

GOOD WITH CATS: unknown

COLOR: White and tan

We’d like you to meet our new little sweetheart Nikki. She’s an adorable 5lb. 10 year old Maltipoo who will just melt your heart!

Nikki was surrendered to VIP Rescue from a “poor situation” in which she lived in for quite some time. She barely had any human contact, had to scrounge for her next meal, was very underweight, and terrified of the humans who failed her.

One of our Volunteers went to the “house” where she was “living”, it took some time, but eventually was able to safely get her out, and traveled many miles and hours to bring Nikki to her new foster home who was waiting with open arms to help her start her journey to a new and much better life!

Nikki was given a warm bath and groom, and a much needed healthy meal, and given time and patience to just “chill” to try and learn that not all humans are bad.

She quickly became “tinkle pad” trained, is learning leash walking, and has slowly gained some much needed weight! She absolutely loves snuggles from her foster Mom, sleeps in the human bed at night, and enjoys naps in one of the many doggie beds in her foster home. Nikki even gives occasional “smiles” to her foster as if she’s saying, I’m still very nervous, but thank you for saving me”.

Nikki will need an experienced, quieter adult only home, as she is still nervous of anything that moves fast or loud noises. She’d be ok as an “only child” or if you do have another pup at home, it must be a smaller, laid back, calm and gentle doggie. A meet and greet will be required.

Nikki will need a home where someone is home more often than not, preference will be given to those who are retired or work from home as we feel this is what’s best for her.

She will also require regular grooming, so please keep that expense in mind as well.

Nikki has been spayed, is current on vaccines, microchipped, had a dental, and is on heartworm and flea prevention. We are going to be very particular when choosing her new family, and will only accept applications that meet her needs. We promised her we WILL find her that perfect “fur” ever home that she can relax in and enjoy her senior years with, one that she truly deserves. If you feel you meet ALL of her needs, please visit www.viprescue.org to fill out an adoption application.

FENCED YARD: Secured fenced yard required

Who is up for the happiest lil’ girl around??? Well, I’m talking about MEEEEE of course! I’m Gigi and I’m a 5 years young Chihuahua mix gal, weighing in at about 10ish pounds, as I just finished weaning my very last litter of pups, and I can hardly wait to get my slim, trim girly figure back!

I’m looking for my very own furever home. Is that you?? I like to snuggle, go on leash walks, play with toys, and I also like to play a little with the other foster pup in my foster home. I like to be at the front of the line for petting, snuggles and lap time. I would do best with another pup in the home that is laid back and doesn’t mind sharing, that would be ok, but of course we would need to meet first.

I will go outside to do my business, my mom takes me for short walks with the other dogs here, and I get really excited if I see a squirrel or a bird. Hang on tight cuz I will try to chase them! If you have a fenced yard, I do like to explore the backyard, a fenced yard is required. I love to explore new things, so if you take me places I will smile the entire time. I don’t like to be left alone for long periods of time, I’m just not the kind of doggie who likes to be alone much. I want to be with you as much as I can. I really need to be in a home where someone is home more often than not, k?

So, now to talk about the “other” stuff. When I got to VIP, we found out I am heart worm positive, but don’t let that stop you from adopting me! VIP Rescue covers all the expenses for my treatment, but you do need to live within 1 hour of the St Petersburg area to take me to my date-sensitive appointments with the rescue vet for my treatment. I’ll also need to take it slow for a while, no long walks or romping/zoomies in the yard until the vet says it’s ok. My VIP friends will explain everything to you in detail.

I’ve been spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and on heartworm and flea prevention.

Maybe you wanna meet me? Please go to www.viprescue.org to fill out and adoption application and make sure to put my name on it. I sure hope my “fur” ever family is out there just waiting for a cutie like me!

Hello there, It’s me Cooper ( you may remember me from earlier cuz’ I’m still lookin’ for my forever person) I’m a 3 year old extremely handsome terrier mix boy. I have been told I am a member in good standing of the He-Man Woman Hater Club and am looking for a Daddy that has a lifestyle that allows me to keep my good standing. For some crazy reason, I just don’t get along with the lovely female human type. (I don’t really hate them, just not for me!)  I have no clue why, but hey, we all have our own “quirks”, right?

As a terrier, I have requirements that must be met by my future Daddy.  First, I must be the center of your universe. I love life as long as I get all the attention, so NO CHILDREN and NO OTHER PETS. In return, I will make you the center of my universe, snuggling and cuddling with you. Second, I require my Daddy to be a homebody, either work from home and/or retired as I am afflicted with separation anxiety. Third, I must be exercised on a very regular basis. I know that I really need an active Daddy and I also require a secured fenced in yard in a single family home (sorry, no townhomes, condos, manufactured homes and no rentals.) I know that’s going to eliminate some great Dads, but it’s what’s bestest for me. I might be little, but I require a lot of room to stretch my legs as I like to zoom, zoom, zoom throughout the back yard. It is my job to keep all predators out of the back yard and I am excellent at my job, if I do say so myself. Fourth, Bones and Toys!!!!  I enjoy chewing on bones and playing with my toys.  Fifth, lottsa love and patience!!! I am a good boy when all my requirements are fulfilled, which is mostly LOVE. I will also require regular grooming, so please keep that in mind. I share my current foster home with “Big Daddy” he sets all the rules here, and guess what? I’m a better boy for it.

I am neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and current on my heartworm and flea prevention! So, anywho, I just want to mention, and not to be mean or disrespectful, but if you don’t meet all my needs, please don’t apply for me. There are some other great pups in our rescue that might fit into your home better. I am neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and current on my heartworm and flea prevention. 

Applications that don’t meet my requirements will be not be processed and will be closed. 

Please visit www.viprescue.org to fill out an adoption application for me (might be the best decision of your life!) 

I really really hope my new Daddy is out there looking for his best boy, me! Cooper!

Standard Adoption Requirements: You must be a resident of FL., and be at least 25 years of age.  This breed typically lives 14-18 years, so keep his lifespan in mind if you are thinking of adopting. Your age should be appropriate for Coopers estimated lifespan.

COLOR: Cream

FENCED YARD: Secure fenced yard required.

Hello everyone!  My name is Lily (AKA wiggle butt) because I am so happy to see you, even if I’ve seen you all day!!!  Are you looking for a new best friend?  I am a 7 lb, 5 yo chihuahua mix gal who loves snuggles, laps, kisses and more snuggles! Your lap or your arms are my favorite place to be as I will follow you everywhere. I will go outside to do my business, but you have to come with me because it’s a scary world out there and I’m a scaredy cat (um…dog). My mom takes me for walks with the other dogs here, but I haven’t figured out if I’m a fan of the whole experience, I just don’t understand this leash business. In the last week I’ve been venturing out to sniff with the other dogs, but then I run right back to moms feet. It’s going to take a while for me to get totally comfortable in a new place. I do like to explore the backyard, but I like to check in constantly to make sure mom is watching.  A fenced yard is required. I don’t mind being in a crate for short periods of time, and my mom leaves us free and I’m good with that too.  I wouldn’t like it if you left me alone for long periods of time, I’m just not the kind of doggie who likes to be alone much, I want to be with you as much as I can. I really need to be in a home where someone is home more often than not, k? A fenced yard is required.

I came from a place with lots and lots of dogs.  I get very scared when new dogs come near me, and for the first few days I was here, my mom had to feed me on the counter away from everybody because I was too afraid to eat.  If any of the other dogs came near me, I would abandon my bowl. I think that’s because of where I came from, huh?My mom can put my bowl on the floor now, but stands near me so I’m comfortable.  I think I would love to be your one and only, but If you already have a really low key dog, that may be ok; as long as you give me time to warm up to them.  I’m not good with new experiences, but once I’m comfortable you’ll see my real personality come out.  If you have other dogs, similar size to me is best.

I’ve been spayed, vaccinated, microchipped and am current on my heartworm and flea prevention too! Maybe you wanna meet me? You can go to www.viprescue.org to fill out and adoption application and make sure to put my name on it. I sure hope my “fur” ever family is out there just waiting for a cutie like me! 

ADOPTION REQUIREMENTS: You must be a Florida resident, and be at least 25 years of age to adopt. To qualify for adoption, all of the pets in your home must be spayed or neutered, they must be current on all vaccines, preventatives, and have received consistent veterinary care. If you’ve had more than one Vet in the past 3 years please provide all the names and number for each vet.

Hello to my future Daddy and/or Mommy. My name is Cooper and I am a 2 year old (almost 3, birthday party for me!!) terrier mix in search of my forever home. In order to be my guardian(s), these are my requirements. Yes, us terriers have requirements of our humans to invite them to live in our world. First, I must be the center of your universe. I love life as long as I get all the attention, so NO CHILDREN, and NO OTHER PETS. Besides, why would you need the joy of a human child or another pet when you have me? Ha! Second, I require my human(s) to be a homebody(s). Either work from home and/or retired and/or a stay at home guardian. I am afflicted with separation anxiety. (Currently, my foster mom works from home; so I sit with her while she is at the computer and do my zoomies out back during her breaks.) Third, I must be exercised on a very regular basis. I know that I really need a younger, active human. I require a fenced in yard and a single family owned detached dwelling. (sorry, no rentals at this time) I might be little, but I require a lot of room to stretch my legs. And I like to zoom, zoom, zoom throughout the back yard. It is my job to keep all predators out of the back yard and I am excellent at my job, if I do say so myself. Fourth, Toys!!!! I require toys to keep me happy. Fifth, Love and patience!!! I am a good boy when my guardians give me all that I need which is mostly LOVE. I will also require regular grooming, so please keep that in mind. I am neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and current on my heartworm and flea prevention!

If you meet the requirements above, please fill out the application for me, COOPER-(The best decision of your life.) Thanks in advance, Cooper
