Uno Matheny crossed the Rainbow Bridge on Sunday, January 13th. She was 11 years old and a wonderful friend to our entire family. Uno was rescued from the streets of Puerto Rico and was fostered by a nice family living in Puerto Rico. From there she was flown to the US and became part of the Dalmatian Rescue of South Florida family.
Uno was adopted by our family after our Dalmatian Coco (a Dalmatian Rescue of South Florida) passed away at the grand age of 13. I swore to myself that I would wait years to adopt again, but about three weeks later I reached out to Patty and told her that I may be ready to a new friend. Patty suggested Uno (her shelter name was Dalia) because she was extremely shy. At first I was hesitant because I was still grieving over my loss of Coco. However, Pati suggested I meet Dalia. I live in Jacksonville so Fort Piece was the landing spot for the meeting. I was expecting to meet a shy and withdrawn Dal. However, when I walked up to her, she instantly gravitated to me. I hugged her and I knew it was meant to be. The ride back to Jacksonville, Uno had to sit in my lap, in the front seat and ever since that day, she was my shadow. If I got up, she would get up and follow me. Everywhere. She blended in to the household beautifully. Uno is truely missed. Thank you Pati and Dalmatian Rescue of South Florida for giving me the opportunity to have Uno in my life and as my best friend.
Sincerely,
Rebecca Matheny, Orange Park, Florida
HOMES AND FUNDS NEEDED!!!!Dalmatian Rescue recently took in 11 Dals from this horrific situation. Although it is our typical protocol to have a plan in place when we rescue, this circumstance was desperate, immediate, and in order to save lives we accommodated and partnered with the Nassau County animal shelter and Paw Paws Pet Rescue as efficiently as we could. Now it is crunch time, we are desperately seeking foster and happily ever after homes and funds to take care of the medical needs that these 11 Dalmatians have. Donations are coming in and we are very grateful and have already applied the funds, but we have a long way to go yet. Your consideration to open up your loving home and donations no matter how small will make a huge difference in the lives of these rescued Dalmatians who otherwise would have no hope or opportunity at a bright future.
Josie and Ursula. Spay day. Belle and Cali were spayed yesterday thanks to your donations!! ❤️❤️
Funds still needed to finish up vetting for the 11 Dals confiscated from Jacksonville Breeder last week.
Thanks to everyone that has volunteered in helping save these precious Dals!!!
Hey……check it out!! My new name is Aspen!! My foster dad renamed me. We like it!!!! Ready for LOVE!!
Maybe you can’t see me but I can see you. I’m Josie and I’m still very timid and shy. I like to play hide and seek. Right now I’m hiding!! In time I will grow to be a strong and brave girl. For now I’m taking it one step at a time and will soon learn to trust. I need lots and lots of love!!!! I have a winning personality underneath all my fear, I just need a chance to develop it.
Hi there. We want to introduce ourselves. We are Ursula (left) and Tyler (right). We made our long journey to freedom all thanks to many kind and compassionate people who came to our rescue. We’re not looking back anymore cause we feel confident our lives have taken a turn for the best!! We are experiencing love, human touch and patience like we’ve ever known. We are excited for the next chapter in our lives. Perhaps you will play a part by fostering or adopting!
We are Nova (front) and Justice (back). We’re just chillin here and happy to be someplace cozy and comfy for now. Life has been very “ruff” for all of us , however we feel relief and gratitude for all the help that got us this far. We know brighter days are ahead. We’ll bed down tonight and dream of happily ever after homes.
So, it was easy to figure out when we are all together and how much we love each other, and that we are the mom and dad to Belle, Cali and Brody. (and maybe more pups too, but we’ve only begun to get us all sorted out). We are Ava the mom and Hunter the dad. No more pups for us!!!! We will soon have our surgeries, get fully vetted and start our search for forever homes. We love our kids, but would like to send them from the nest onto happily ever afters which they all deserve! We are still young and have a lifetime of love to give to someone. We are very hopeful and excited about our futures!!

My name is Jasper, and I’m The 11th Dalmatian from the breeder confiscation. You’re just now seeing my face because I took a slight detour when I arrived in Miami. I slipped my lead and decided to take an adventure of my own on a spin around the neighborhood. I must admit it was quite scary. I had no idea where I was, I got very hungry and tired. Then suddenly a miracle happened! A good Samaritan found me. Thank goodness for my microchip. It was my ticket back. Dalmatian Rescue made all the right contacts. I did spend one night in the slammer, but Dalmatian Rescue was promptly there the next morning to bail me out. Needless to say I’m very relieved and very grateful to be back with my companions. Don’t think I’ll be trying that again!! 🙃
