My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Diesel is a boxer/pit mix who is house trained. neutered, and up-to-date on his vaccines. He gets along well with smaller dogs (no large male dogs!) as well as children of all ages.
*****************************************
This dog has graduated from the PAWS FOR CAUSE program at the US Federal Penitentiary in Lee County, VA. This program pairs rescued dogs with handlers selected from the prison's camp which is a very low security part of the facility. Dogs are taught basic obedience commands on leash. They also run them through agility courses. They work on housebreaking too. The dogs are also socialized with the other dogs as well as being around staff and all the handlers. Preference is given to veterans to adopt these dogs but anyone can apply. We make every effort to fit the dog to the right person*
