My story

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

Drakey has completed his second TPLO surgery recovery and is adoptable again!

*Drakey features*
-Two brand-new robot knees (i.e. completed TPLO surgery and PT on both legs!)

- High level of interest in whatever you’re up to (also everyone else, very nosy neighbor)

- lots of mouth sounds - very clear verbal communication

- complete and utter obsession with whoever his person is

- Handsome good looks that make every pic look STUNNING just because he’s in it

- Completed multiple training courses with his foster family and has a wealth of skills that he will happily trade for cheese

*Not included in adoption package*
- spatial awareness/physical limitations when he’s excited

- ability to turn off screaming function once it’s been activated

- ability to eat a wide range of foods without prompting the explosive diarrhea feature

*pairs well with*
- couples who never plan on having kids and want a giant baby to spoil

- families who have disposable income and enjoy throwing money down a bottomless pit (er… or bottomless bully)

- a family who has surplus amounts of patience and empathy and also physical strength

ADOPTION DISCLAIMER: At Perfectly Paired Pitties (P3), we aim to provide accurate information about all of our animals to the best of our abilities. That said, we cannot guarantee that any dog is housebroken or crate trained and cannot promise any specifics regarding an animal's breed, size, health, behavior, temperament, or other conditions. Our adoption fee does not fully cover all vetting, medical care, food, supplies, or training costs. As we depend on donations to provide for the animals in our care, we are unable to reduce or refund the adoption fee. Out of area adopters (outside of DC, MD, VA and PA) will be considered on a case by case basis and will be required to come to the foster location for an in-person meet-and-greet. Our rescue is not able to provide out of state transport.

TO DONATE: Please visit our website at www.https://perfectlypairedpitties.org/Donate/ to make a donation. Your contribution will help Perfectly Paired Pitties (P3) continue providing essential medical treatment and training for our dogs.

More about this rescue

P3 is a united rescue effort to both save pitties and support veterans. At P3 we LOVE Pitties & we LOVE & RESPECT our Veterans! 2800 Pitties & Pittie Mixes are euthanized in overcrowded shelters every day, over 1 million every year. 22 Veterans commit suicide every day, over 8,030 per year. At P3 we find these numbers UNACCEPTABLE! P3 was created in March of 2024 with the goal of rescuing Pit Bulls and Pit Bull mixes from overcrowded shelters where they are at risk of euthanasia and providing the necessary training for them to provide emotional support, nightmare alerts, and pressure therapy during episodes of anxiety and stress so they can be paired with a Veteran struggling with PTSD reducing the risk of Veteran suicide. While we support our Veterans, our rescue is not limited to the placement of service dogs for Veterans only. Our Veterans program is only one aspect of what we do. We want to help EVERY pittie find the perfect furever family!
