Birch visited the animal shelter on Friday, highlighting two long-term residents, Buddy and Goldie, who have spent months — even years — waiting for families to adopt them.

Buddy, who has been at the shelter for nearly two years, was abandoned after undergoing surgery for a tumor and receiving treatment for heartworms.

Despite his difficult start, Buddy is thriving and ready for a fresh start with a caring family.

Goldie, another dog in desperate need of a home, was abandoned when her homeless owner could no longer care for her. Despite her past struggles, Goldie remains a friendly and affectionate dog.

The Florida Humane Society has a wide variety of pets ready for adoption, and Birch encourages South Floridians to visit and consider giving these animals a second chance.

Adoption is the best option for animals in need, and there are so many great pets waiting for their forever homes.
