00:00Let's introduce you to Hollywood over here.
00:03A little bit lovable and a little bit clumsy and a little bit of a drooler.
00:09Tell us how we got a hold of Hollywood.
00:12So Hollywood came in to us recently when he was a puppy and he did get adopted but his owner moved and wasn't able to take him with them.
00:23So Hollywood's back with us but he is a shelter favorite.
00:27The volunteers just love him because he is a big couch potato and a really nice balance of playful and chill.
00:36Right and an easy dog to have in your house.
00:39An easy dog to take care of.
00:41And by the way thanks care to our friends at Tito's Handmade Vodka.
00:44Vodka for dog people without whom we could not do our Beach Buddies.
00:48But you look at a dog like this and Gabby behind the camera always says this is the perfect dog because nobody's going to bother you.
00:54Because they look at the dog a lot but at the same time a lovable sweet dog.
00:58He's a big goofball.
00:59It's a process for getting Hollywood adopted.
01:02What do we have to do?
01:02So we have you fill out an application to make sure we're matching you to the right pet and the pet to the right family.
01:08We call you in.
01:08You spend time with Hollywood and any of the other dogs and cats.
01:12If you have another pet we have them meet each other and if it's the right fit we send them home.
01:17They're all spayed and neutered and vaccinated and microchipped and you know really great lovable pets with families.
01:25I love this sweet little dog.
01:27So listen there's no reason for Hollywood to be back here again.
01:30Let's get them out of here and find them a home and thank you in advance for taking care of us.
01:34By the way abandoned pet rescue what you do is unbelievable.
01:37You know and we don't have often time to say thank you but thank you.
01:42And this is not our first time being here.
01:44You do some wonderful wonderful things and all the people you work with are as nice as you are.
01:49So thanks for having us today.
01:50And thank you again to Tito's Handmade Vodka Vodka for dog people.
01:53All right.
01:54Go to thebeachmiami.com.
01:55Take a look at all these beautiful dogs just like Hollywood.
01:58You told me that we were going to interview Geraldine.
02:01This is not what I expected.
02:02I expected some old kind of fat dog with patchy fur.
02:07Geraldine is gorgeous.
02:09Geraldine is a beautiful dog.
02:11And she's full of energy.
02:12She is a year old.
02:15She's a clean cry which is a smaller breed of the husky family.
02:19And she's incredibly sweet and active and smart.
02:23So no she's not an old lady at all.
02:25No she's beautiful.
02:26This does not do you justice Geraldine.
02:28You're much lovelier than your name suggests.
02:31By the way thank you again to Tito's Handmade Vodka.
02:33Vodka for dog people for supporting us and you at abandoned pet rescue and all our beach buddies.
02:38And you can take a look at them at thebeachmiami.com.
02:40Tito's Handmade Vodka came in as a stray.
02:42These dogs are notorious for jumping fences so she might have gotten out and the family never found her.
02:48But she goes to a lot of our events.
02:50We have a hundred community events a year and she's been to many of them.
02:54She enjoys going to the beach with our volunteers.
02:57So she's a really fun active social dog and it's going to make a family super happy.
03:01I know it and this facility here at abandoned pet rescue, you do all kinds of events here too right?
03:07You invite in people and have fun?
03:09We do.
03:10We're always trying to educate about pet adoption and animal welfare.
03:13So we invite businesses and community groups to come in and meet our pets and volunteer.
03:19So there's many opportunities to get involved.
03:22Geraldine would you like to come join us?
03:23Come on, come on, come on.
03:26Come on, come on.
03:26Come on, you can do it.
03:28There you are.
03:30See that?
03:31Already pre-trained.
03:33This is Zai.
03:34So Zai is diabetic.
03:36He is diabetic.
03:37He's also on some eye drops daily and he's also on thyroid medication.
03:41But we do have him under our adoption program where he will have his medical needs supplied through
03:47abandoned pet rescue.
03:48So all of his meds, his diabetic food, and even veterinary care will be covered through
03:52us, which is really nice for people who want to adopt but can't go straight into medical
03:56bills as soon as you take the animal home, which is a lot.
03:58All you need to bring is love.
04:01Yeah, and he's such a loving guy.
04:02He was in a foster home for some time.
04:04So we were able to see how he is in a home and he loved to sunbathe and just sit by the
04:09window.
04:10He's 11, but he still has so much kitten energy to him.
04:13He loves to play.
04:14I mean, he's such a sweet boy.
04:15So tell us about the process by which we can take him home.
04:18Yeah, so you just have to fill out an application online just to make sure that we're matching
04:22you with the right pet and the right pet to the right family.
04:25And we'll do a meet and greet where you can meet him and see all the medical care he needs
04:29and we'll be able to show you how to do everything.
04:31But it's really just simple as long as you're willing to learn or if you already have experience.
04:35He's such a good boy.
04:36I mean, he sits through all of it.
04:37He's really easy to get his meds to.
04:39Zai is loving this right now.
04:41So you don't have anything to worry about.
04:42Everything's taken care of.
04:43Thanks to our great friends at Abandoned Pet Rescue.
04:46Take a look at all our pets at thebeachmiami.com.
