You must live in a single family home in order to be considered - puppies of this age cannot be in grassy or common areas where any other unknown dogs have been so places like condos, apartments, villa homes, etc. are not options.

SOME COOL INFORMATION ABOUT ME:

Meet Whitney!

Whitney is an adorable puppy (born in April 30, 2026) with a big personality! She's outgoing, curious, and always ready to explore the world around her. Whether she's investigating something new or romping around with her siblings, Whitney brings joy wherever she goes.

When playtime is over, her favorite thing is rolling over for belly rubs. She's affectionate, confident, and ready to find a family to call her own.

We are only considering homes in our local area - 1 hour or less from Arcadia FL. If you have adopted from us before and are slightly out of that area, please contact us directly and we can discuss it. The puppies are too young to be spayed/neutered yet and still need a few more rounds of vaccines as well as to be spayed or neutered.. All vaccines and spay/neuter surgery will be done at our vet's office in Arcadia so you must be willing to bring them to their appointments in order to be considered for adoption.

If you are interested in adopting please complete our Adoption Application by copying and pasting the following link into your web browser: http://www.caninecastaways.org/adoption-application
