When Save the Strays Foundation first saw Kanie, she resembled our adopted family dog who lost her battle with Lymphoma just two weeks prior so much that we knew we had to give her a chance to be loved! Kanie was left at Miami-Dade Animal Services by a fellow who said he had her since she was a puppy - yet never gave her a name! Alone and afraid, MDAS listed Kanie as "fearful" and placed her in a back kennel where she was not making eye contact with anyone. We learned that she was heartworm positive and knew she would be put down soon if we did not rescue her. Once out of the shelter, Kanie was a sweet dog and responding well to her treatment. We are so thankful for the newly engaged couple, Scott and Yonah, who adopted her and committed to continuing her treatments. Kanie instantly became excited when she first saw them - she knew she would be save and loved forever! Congratulations to the new family!

Cookie is a loving 6 month old 30 pound Boxer puppy who was left at animal services. Despite being abandoned, she was friendly with a funny personality.

They passed on that love by saving the life of another dog, Cookie. Thank you for opening your hearts and home to Cookie in honor of Terry!

On June 12, 2013, we saved Cooper from death at Miami-Dade Animal Services. Cooper was close to euthanasia as he was found as stray puppy on June 6th and running out of time to be adopted. He underwent treatment for Demodex (mange), and his fur grew back beautifully. Cooper's foster mom was wonderful, making sure he received all of his treatments, and plenty of love, to help him recooperate. Cooper loved to play with his 75 pound Lab foster sister and soon his foster mom realized they had become a family. We lost a great foster mom because she is giving him a forever home. Thank you Heather (and big sis Bailey) for adopting Cooper James!

Buddy holds a special place in our hearts, as he is our first rescued dog. Buddy came to Save the Strays as an abandoned dog located near railroad tracks in Hialeah. He was malnourished, flea-bitten with worms, and afraid. He quickly learned to trust and shared his love and energy freely. As a young American Bulldog, Buddy needed a home with a caring guardian. David had been thinking about adopting a dog and researching the responsibility. He fell in love when he saw Buddy and it was instantly a perfect match. Thank you David for giving Buddy a loving, forever home!
