FOUND dog in Hollywood, FL on N. 74th Terrace.

Male, unaltered Siberian husky with one blue and one brown eye. His name is Locky per the microchip.

He was found wearing a red collar and has been loose since at least 10/31 per the finder.

He is registered to an Andrey Aleman who lives in Hialeah, whose phone is going straight to voicemail.

Does anyone know ANDREY ALEMAN?

Please help me get this sweet boy home 🙏

📣 A Pup Pit Stop Statement 📣

The animal welfare community depends on accuracy, transparency, and ethical conduct to protect animals and maintain public trust. When an individual’s actions compromise those standards, it becomes necessary to inform the wider community to prevent future harm.

This statement addresses serious concerns regarding ANA MARCELLA TRICIO and her continued involvement within rescue and shelter environments.

Recently, Ana publicly claimed to have secured a dog and stated she had the animal in her possession for multiple days. During that time, she declined all offers of assistance, refused verification, and provided no evidence that the dog was actually in her care. Rescue teams paused active search efforts based on her statements.

It was later confirmed that Ana never had the dog at any point.
The dog remained loose, vulnerable, and unprotected while Ana continued to insist she had her.

To reinforce this false narrative, Ana sent an AI‑generated photo as “proof” of a dog she did not have. This was not an error in judgment — it was a deliberate act that misled rescuers and obstructed coordinated efforts.

Additionally, Ana collected money from members of the community under the claim that she was helping this dog. Because she never had the dog, these funds were obtained under false pretenses. This constitutes fraud, and it represents a serious breach of trust within the rescue community.

Despite these documented actions, Ana continues to volunteer at Miami‑Dade Animal Services. Multiple concerns have been formally communicated to shelter leadership, including the director and management team, regarding her handling of shelter animals and her pattern of misrepresentation. No responses have been received.

This lack of acknowledgment raises additional concerns about oversight, volunteer screening, and the safety of the animals entrusted to the shelter.

Given the documented pattern of dishonesty, refusal to collaborate, submission of fabricated evidence, collection of funds under false pretenses, and continued access to shelter animals without administrative review, it is essential that rescues, shelters, and community groups exercise extreme caution when considering her involvement.

Individuals who handle animals or represent rescue organizations must demonstrate reliability, transparency, and respect for established safety protocols. Allowing someone with this pattern of conduct to participate in volunteer operations poses a significant liability to any organization and a potential risk to the animals in their care.

This statement is issued to protect the welfare of animals, the integrity of rescue operations, and the safety of volunteers and staff. We urge all organizations to verify information, require accountability, and remain vigilant when evaluating volunteer applicants.

The priority must always remain the same:
the safety of the animals and the trust of the community.

Screenshots attached are posts she published in the last 24 hours that shows she is STILL lying about the situation as well as the message she sent me at 3:00 this morning (yes, she unblocked me just to lie even more 🫠).

I will also attach the screen recording of our ENTIRE conversation when she was wasting the time and resources of MULTIPLE rescue organizations for days.

Today is such a bittersweet day. The Hollywood Pup Pit Stop is officially coming down so it can make its way to our new home in St. Cloud.

I built this little space because Broward and Miami‑Dade are overflowing with dogs who just need a temporary safe landing spot before their next step. Since opening in May, 32 dogs have passed through these walls and moved forward into new beginnings. Thirty‑two souls who got to breathe, reset, and be seen.

I’m going to miss the South Florida rescue community more than I can explain. You became part of my village, and you let me be part of yours. You showed up for me, but more importantly, you showed up for the dogs.

While Pup Pit Stop won’t be in Broward anymore, it isn’t ending — it’s evolving. I’ll be rebuilding and expanding in Osceola County, because there are dogs who need help there too. And who knows… maybe this new chapter and new county will even let me be a pit stop for dogs coming out of Broward/Miami and heading toward better things up north 👀.

A new place, a wider reach, the same mission.

I can’t wait to update you all as we settle into our new home and dream up bigger, better ways to keep helping animals who need a safe place to land.

Thank you to everyone who has supported me, believed in me, and stood beside me. And thank you, always, for supporting the dogs. 🐾💜

If you’d like to help Pup Pit Stop with rebuilding and expanding, donations are always appreciated 🫶

Murphy made this video for you guys

10/20/2026

Murphy is popping in to say hi 🐾💜

Murphy isn’t technically a Pup Pit Stop pup, but he is a temporary foster. I’m fostering him through — and his story is one of my favorite genres: rescuers saying YES so other rescuers can say YES too.

said YES to pulling Murphy out of a horrible situation and rushed him straight into life‑saving care. When they sent the photos, I had never seen gums so white.

After WVM swooped in and saved his life, Saving Sage said YES to bringing him into their rescue so he can get the rest of the vetting he needs and eventually find his perfect forever home 🏡

I usually foster bigger or older dogs, but I have extra time on my hands until my move — so I said YES to fostering Murphy. He needs close monitoring, gentle structure, and a soft place to land while he gets ready for his next step. And I need allllllll the puppy love while I have the time for it!!

Three organizations said YES to one tiny puppy. And because of that, he’s going to have the best life. That is what rescue is about 💜🐾

Help us keep saying YES… by also saying YES.
Foster, adopt, share, donate, volunteer, follow/like/comment — there are so many ways to say YES 🫶

Despite Murphy’s rough beginning in his life, he is SO friendly, loving, playful, and curious 🥰

Murphy won’t be ready for adoption for at least a few weeks, but don’t let that stop you from getting pre‑approved to adopt this perfect little boy once he’s ready.… maybe even foster‑to‑adopt since I’ll be moving at the end of the month 👀😉

Lizzie came into Pup Pit Stop shut down and terrified. She would freeze, tuck herself into corners, and try to make herself invisible. I just HAD to take her on as one of my foster-until-adopted dogs, hoping she would feel safe enough to show me who she really is. And let me tell you, she did just that 🥰 Over time she started opening up in the sweetest ways. She is such a fun, cuddly, gentle Velcro girl who loves being the best big spoon and little spoon. She is house trained, non destructive, fully vetted, spayed, microchipped, great with kids, doing amazing with cat boundary training, and she loves other dogs.

One of the biggest parts of her glow up has been Sonic. Sonic is another one of my fosters and Lizzie chose him as her best friend. They play together, nap together, follow each other around, and help each other feel brave. Sonic gets adopted this week, and Lizzie will feel that shift. She has come so far and she deserves stability.

I am moving to central Florida at the end of this month, and I do not want Lizzie to have to acclimate to another foster home after Sonic leaves and after I move. She has already learned so much here. She has already built trust. She has already found comfort. The next home she adjusts to should be her forever home, not another temporary stop. I want her to go straight from this chapter into the one where she finally gets to stay.

Lizzie is about three years old, gentle, sweet, cuddly, and happiest when she gets to spend plenty of time with her person or people. She would love another dog in the home to play with, and she would love even more to sleep next to you every night. She thrives in calm homes with families who understand that dogs like Lizzie bloom slowly and beautifully when given patience, safety, and love.
