Every year, the Pensacola Humane Society (PHS) cares for thousands of dogs and cats in need. These dogs and cats need loving homes through no fault of their own. They all have a story, and they all wait patiently for a second chance.
That’s where the community comes in. Not only does adoption save the life of an animal in need, but it’s also more affordable than buying from a breeder. Plus, most shelter pets are already spayed, neutered and vaccinated. Research also consistently shows that pet ownership reduces stress and loneliness, though anyone who’s ever had an adoring dog or an indifferent cat could have told you that. Meet this year’s batch of super model pets. Maybe one of them is yours?

Randall
- Age: 3 years
- Weight: 56 pounds
- Breed: Mixed Breed (Large)
Randall has quite a story to tell. Once the longest-resident dog at the Escambia County Animal Shelter, he’s now getting a fresh start at the Pensacola Humane Society — and he’s more than ready to find the family he’s been waiting for.
Randall watched other pets leave for their forever homes while he patiently stayed behind, waiting for someone to choose him. Through it all, he’s remained resilient, loving and eager to share his big heart. Randall’s wish list is simple: a cozy couch for naps, loyal companionship and a cat-free home where he can finally belong.
Everyone who meets Randall can’t help but root for him. Could you be the one to give this deserving boy the happy ending he’s been waiting for? Come meet Randall — his forever home may be just one visit away!
