Adoptions Needed in Tampa Bay! - May 2023 Humane Society Volunteer Day

ADOPT Me!
These 9 shelter dogs are all available for adoption from Humane Society of Tampa Bay!
Every month we help our friends at AGoldPhoto bring their studio to the Humane Society of Tampa Bay in order to bring extra exposure to animals who need it the most.
When a new animal is brought in through intake at the shelter they capture a quick photo for their file. Often the animal is nervous at this time & the staff is mainly focused on assessing the animal & ensuring their well-being as they introduce them to their temporary home at the shelter.
This is why we teamed up with AGoldPhoto to capture professional photos of these animals to replace the initial intake photos that they add to their online profile. This is where most people begin their rescue animal search & having a professional photo of the animal that better showcases their personalities helps prospective adopters find & better match their soon-to-be new family member.
With our expertise in helping animals pose for photos & feel comfortable in front of the camera & the pet photography expertise of AGoldPhoto we are able to capture beautiful photos of these well-deserving animals.
Now, let’s meet the 9 adorable shelter dogs looking for their furever homes (as of May 10th, 2023).

Isla Del Sol Yacht & Country Club Wedding with Monte - St Pete, FL
Monte is a french bulldog with a BIG personality! It was so wonderful including him in his parent’s wedding day & being able to see how truly loved he is, by not only the bride & groom, but by their entire family. We made him a custom tuxedo to match the couple’s wedding colors & it came out absolutely paw-fect.

He looked so incredibly handsome & received a ton of compliments. He had no issue being the center of attention & was happy to walk side-by-side with his dad down the aisle.
He stood up with the bridal party during the entire ceremony, occasionally turning around to take in the beautiful ocean view!
Isla Del Sol is so wonderful to work with & they welcome pets with open arms for wedding celebrations! We were able to spend a little time with the bride & groom while they finished getting ready & had a ton of space to explore & get exercise with Monte throughout the day. He loved walking by the beach & taking breaks inside, on the stairs, so he could get pets from each person as they walked by.
This adorable Frenchie had the BEST DAY EVER!
We asked the couple a few questions about including Monte in the wedding day:
Why did you include your dog in your wedding?
Having Monte be part of our wedding was a must have, non-negotiable!! He has been with us our entire relationship and is part of the family. It wouldn’t have felt right without him being there with us on our big day!
What is the story of how your dog became a part of the family?
Even though my apartment at the time didn’t allow dogs (landlord was a softy), I had to have Monte the moment I saw his adorable, cubby puppy self! Fast forward 5 months later when Kevin and I met (also a dog lover) and it’s been the 3 of us ever since!
Did you incorporate your dog into any other details on your wedding day?
We were originally thinking of having a signature cocktail in his honor (Mont-jito anyone?); however, we decided to add the video package last minute as a way to always remember our wedding and how wonderful Monte was as our dog of honor. The video is amazing and we have no regrets!
All dogs are the best dogs, but tell us something that makes your dog special?
Monte is always happy, thrives being the center of attention and loves all people! Once he gets to knows you, the kisses are forever! He’s also extremely lazy (all he wants is belly rubs 24/7) and is always the last one to wake up in the morning, which is amazing on days we sleep in late.
Is there anything else you’d like to share with us about your dog?
It’s Monte’s world and we just live in it!
He’s the boss, and everything revolves around him and what he is doing! We want to rescue a dog soon so Monte can have a brother or sister....we will see how he does after being an only fur child for so long!!

When it comes to actually carrying the wedding rings, we have an important recommendation—let’s leave the real rings to the humans!
