Diego and Oscar at the Humane Society Broward County.
By Sharon Aron Baron
Meet Sweet Diego, the spirited three-year-old whose energy is infectious. Known for his playful “zoomies,” the moment he’s let out, he quickly mellows out after a brief run, longing for companionship and a gentle pat or two.
Weighing about 47 pounds, this charming fellow recently showcased his fondness for water by lounging in a kiddie pool. Prospective owners with a pool might find him taking a refreshing dip.
Humane Society staff have remarked on how well he behaves on a leash, and during his stint at the front desk, Diego proved to be the epitome of a gentleman. A preliminary meet and greet is suggested for those with canine members at home to ensure everyone’s compatibility.
In a heartwarming gesture, a kind dog lover has sponsored Diego’s adoption fee. Now, all he needs is a loving forever home.
For those who feel a purr is the ultimate comfort, Oscar, an eight-year-old feline, would be delighted to be a part of your family.
Oscar’s story is tinged with sadness. Following the unfortunate passing of his previous owner, he’s been left in solitude.
Oscar is no stranger to canine companions, having previously shared his home with them. Thus, with a slow and careful introduction, he’s likely to get along with dog-owning households.
Adopters are kindly requested to show patience, allowing Oscar adequate time to familiarize himself with his new environment. In a generous move, Oscar’s adoption fee has been sponsored by the compassionate folks at Real Res.
Interested adopters can meet Diego (ID 669775), Oscar (ID 671904), or any other pets seeking homes at the Humane Society of Broward County. To begin the process, complete the pre-adoption application on their website: www.humanebroward.com.
The shelter, located at 2070 Griffin Road, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33312, opens its adoption kennels daily from 11 a.m. For any inquiries, call 954-989-3977 ext. 6. If you’re not able to adopt at the moment, you can still help these furry souls find their forever homes by sharing their stories.
