More about the shelter
Maxx & Me Pet Rescue was founded by me named in memory of our golden retriever rescue Maxx who we lost at 3.5 yrs old from histiocytic sarcoma. I have been involved in rescue for years - all my dogs are rescues, I have transported thousands of animals from shelters to fosters/adopters, been on a pilots n paws flight to help a rescue. I am a real estate broker by trade and currently the majority of dogs saved are funded by me personally until we grow. We saved 23 dogs from a FL hoarder in Levy in Feb/March of this year.
Adoption fees vary. Application required, reference check, vet reference check, home visit and once approved meet and greet. Adoption contract at the time of adoption once approved. Our rescues are always returnable to our rescue and is made part of the contract.

Meet Chip!
This handsome Mastiff mix is currently looking for his forever home. He is about 4 years old and 60-70lbs, although he looks larger (think tall, dark and handsome ;-). Chip currently lives with several other dogs and does great, but we feel that he may like to be your only dog or just with one very nice dog. He needs a calm environment.
Chip was rescued from Miami Dade Animal Services after we saw videos of him shaking in his kennel there. He was brought to us in Tampa and has been in a foster home ever since. While he can take a bit to warm up to new people, once he trusts you, he will bond very deeply with you and count on you for reassurance and love. He loves women and chooses them first.
He is cuddly, gives kisses to his people and interacts with the other dogs in his home. He needs a secure 6' fenced yard (no exceptions) and ideally just a single person or a couple for a quiet home. Because of his nervousness, he needs a home without children, just a quiet serene environment where he can love his people.
Chip is neutered, up-to-date on vaccines, microchipped, heartworm negative and on monthly prevention. His adoption donation is $250.
