This year-old pointer mix is uber-energetic and ready to mix it up with leash walks and play dates at the park. You can bond during couch chillathons during French Fry's favorite activity ― belly rubs. Stop in soon to visit and adopt this glass-half-full, four-pawed optimist. Breed: Bulldog Gender: Male Weight: 53 pounds Age: 4 years Orphaned Since: May 2 Adoption Fee: $150 For Oreo, both the cookie and the dog, it's all about the black and white markings ― white surrounded by black on both sides. For canine Oreo, it's all about the fun and yes, food. Spoiler alert: If it fits inside his mouth, edible or not, Oreo will grab it, and if it's tasty, he may coat it with drool. Oreo is happy when he's near his person and ecstatic if his human plies him with a treat or two. He's more than ready for a one-way trip home. Breed: Domestic Shorthair Gender: Male Weight: 11 ½ pounds Age: 8 months Orphaned Since: Oct. 23 Adoption Fee: $75 The name Barney brings to mind a kaleidoscope of characters: Barney, the kid-favorite, purple dinosaur; and for adults, the clumsy deputy in Mayberry, Barney Fife. But Barney, a former resident of Polk County Animal Control, personifies a people-pleasing feline who works the room at SPCA Florida's Tinker's Legacy. Twirl a wand toy, and it's game on for this energetic kitty who's ready to bulldoze his sweet self into your heart. He's ready for a play date ending in a trip home to his forever family. Breed: Domestic Longhair Gender: Male Weight: 10 pounds Age: 2 years Orphaned Since: March 4 Adoption Fee: $75 At first, he might play hard to get but give him a little time and a few gentle pets, and he'll show you his sweet, playful side. Johan loves toys, affection and mealtime (he never misses a snack). Once you earn his trust, you'll have a loyal companion who greets you with purrs and playful pounces. If you're looking for a low-key best friend with a soft spot for treats and snuggles, Johan's your guy.
