Kitten Fosters needed!

We have three, 7-8 week-old kittens needing foster placement! You could expect to be watching them from between 2-3 weeks until they go on their adoption sleepover.

Fostering is free and so much fun for the family, and don’t worry, we won’t let you keep all of them! (Maybe just one 👀)

Reach out to us ASAP for details!

‼️❤️Available PUPPY Alert❤️‼️

Austin has been in foster for a few weeks since he and his mother, Zoey, were rescued by Poochie's. Now, he has been medically cleared for adoption and boy is he ready!!

Austin and Zoey were suffering from a flea allergy and needed some TLC, but thanks to The Veterinary Center at Hunter's Crossing and our amazing foster, Summer Duke Pridgen, both mom and baby have made amazing progress!

Austin, affectionately nicknamed Choopie, is a smart, snuggly, and goofy fella! He loves to play and gets along with other dogs, and even cats! 💕🐶 His favorite pastime is being curled up in his foster mom's lap, just like the baby he is!

A little about him!! 💫
🐾 Approx. 9 weeks old
🐶 Shepherd/Lab mix (to our best guess)
🥏 Super duper snuggly
😍 Working on crate and potty training
🐕 Dog, cat. and kid friendly!
🥰 Quick to learn

All Poochie's pups are given age-appropriate vaccinations, dewormer, a microchip, and kept up-to-date on flea/tick/heartworm prevention. Additionally, Poochie's covers spay/neuter surgeries for all animals.

Austin is being fostered by our foster coordinator, Summer Duke Pridgen, in Hawthorne, FL. 🤗

This past Friday we were called in to help a momma dog and her baby boy after they were dumped on someone's property. Mom, who we've named Zoey, is very obviously underweight and dealing with flea allergy dermatitis. Her baby, Austin, outside of some bald patches and a wormy belly, is doing well.

We believe Momma Zoey is a Lab/Shepherd mix, about 2 years old, and getting the TLC she deserves. A few weeks of antibiotics and care and she'll be ready to find the family for her.

Austin is weaning off his mom and learning how to be a confident, happy puppy. He will continue to receive love from his foster family until he is ready for adoption!

Thank you so much The Veterinary Center at Hunter's Crossing for providing our Poochie's Pups with the best care imaginable!!!

If you would like to help us provide for their care, please consider donating via PayPal or Venmo:

Thank you SO much to our Poochie’s community for your help. We couldn’t do this without you all!

🤍🐾Fiona is still searching for the one!! 🤍🐾

Fiona came back to Poochie's at the beginning of April 2025, after her home of 1.5 years had a baby and could no longer give her the attention she deserves 💔. Since then, she has been thriving under the roof of her foster home and learning how to be a dog again! 🎉❤️‍🩹

She is a true medium sized dog, weighing 26 lbs. Fiona is super human oriented and loves to meet new people. Her play style is both goofy and springy, you just have to see it! When she's excited, she tip-taps in place, it's the cutest thing ever!! Fiona is sweet, she's energetic, and is genuinely so, so eager to learn. If you think she could be yours forever, apply today.

A little about Fiona:
🐾 Approx. 2.5 years old
🦴 27 lb terrier mix
💉 Up to date on vaccinations and prevention! Thank you to The Veterinary Center at Hunter's Crossing!!
🩺 Spayed
🧠 Eager to learn
🎶 Talkative and curious!
🐱 Fantastic with cats, dogs, and kids!
🤍 Crate and potty trained

Message from her foster parent:
Fiona is definitely a girl with lots of s***k! She has been fantastic with our cats and learning what it means to be a dog. She loves long trail walks, peanut butter Kongs, and tug toys . Fiona is also an avid snuggler with her foster siblings!!

Fiona has also been doggie daycare approved by the amazing Camp Run-A-Mutt Gainesville 🐶🦴. She’s been having a blast being introduced to all her new friends with her fellow Poochie’s foster sister, Tessie.
