Location: Fort Lauderdale, Fla.
The Humane Society of Broward is currently seeking a forever home for Bourbon, an energetic 8-month-old Australian cattle dog mix. Weighing in at 40 pounds, Bourbon is described as smart, treat-motivated, and affectionate. He has recently arrived at the shelter, where staff have begun teaching him commands and improving his behavior.
The shelter is near capacity, with many dogs and cats awaiting their adoptive families. Alongside Bourbon, Mel, a 3-year-old calico cat, has also been featured. Initially shy, she has started to show affection toward shelter staff.
Adoption Details:
- Hours: Open seven days a week from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.
- Appointments: No appointment is required to meet the animals.
