My story

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

Meet Baby!

A soulful six-and-a-half-year-old American Pitbull Terrier/Boxer mix currently living in Menlo Park, CA, whose heart is as big as her brindle-and-white frame and whose journey is nothing short of miraculous.

Rescued from euthanasia on New Year’s Eve 2024, Baby stepped into the new year with a tail wag and a spirit full of hope! She’s a sweet, affectionate girl who thrives on belly rubs, squeaky toys, and romping around the house or the yard with her favorite humans. Whether she’s tossing a squeaky tennis ball in the air or curling up for a midday nap, Baby brings warmth and joy to every moment!

She’s especially wonderful for someone who works from home. She’ll quietly entertain herself with puzzle toys or nap peacefully nearby, but she’s always up for a game of indoor fetch, a stroll around the block, or a breezy car ride. With soulful eyes and a go-with-the-flow vibe, Baby is equal parts loyal sidekick and playful spirit.

Baby is incredibly intelligent and already knows sit, down, and wait. Plus, she’s always eager to please! She does require some special care due to underlying allergies, chronic ear infections, and an upcoming surgery for a small mast cell tumor. Her caregivers are actively fundraising to support her continued medical needs, and she remains bright, loving, and full of life through it all. She also has an old ACL injury that doesn’t slow her down too much but may make her a little stiff after a big play session.

Baby is dog-reactive and prefers not to share her space with other animals, except for her very best friend, Boogie. If you're considering a dynamic duo, Baby and Boogie would love nothing more than to find a home together, where they can continue their beautiful bond. A calm, pet-free home without small children would be the perfect environment for Baby to thrive.

Are you ready to open your heart and home to a gentle, playful girl who’s ready to be your favorite coworker, cuddle buddy, and walking partner? Reach out to adopt@joyfulpets.com and let Baby bring her beautiful light into your life!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our ultimate goal is to unite as many animals with loving pet parents as possible, so we strive to make it easy to adopt a dog or cat you have fallen in love with. All we ask is that you fill out an adoption application so that we have all the information we need to determine that you'll be able to provide a safe and compassionate home to one of our rescued pets. Once approved, all you need to do is sign our adoption agreement form and provide an adoption donation so that we can continue to save more animals every day and unite them with families just like yours.
