Pinto Bean is an affectionate 1 y/o American Pit Bull Terrier. He passed his cat test at the shelter we adopted him from, however after bringing him home he began demonstrating some predatory behaviors toward our two resident cats, so we are looking for a home that would be a better fit for him. He is a certified snuggle bug who enjoys sleeping in until noon, car rides, and loves treats. Pinto is quick to learn commands, and he is working on becoming crate trained. He is potty trained (aside from accidents in his crate). He also has separation anxiety that a patient adopter can assist him in continuing to work through (which looks like barking in his crate, peeing in his crate, and chewing when left out of the crate). He is not destructive or anxious when we are home. Pinto seems to have some reactivity while leashed on walks, but is friendly off-leash. He is friendly toward other dogs. He is working on commands of sit, focus, wait, and coming when called. He is calm during baths and nail trims, and does well with all handling. Pinto is neutered and is up to date on all vaccines. He may be too much for little kids, but should do well with older ones.

We essentially do a two week trial for each pet. Payment is not cashed until that period is over.

We try to be as detailed as possible to find good matches.

More about this rescue
Our mission is to find safe and loving forever homes for dogs (and other animals) who have been abused, neglected, or unwanted. With shelters at or over capacity throughout our region, our experienced and dedicated group of volunteers are committed to:
Collaborating with other rescues to help ensure that the dog that would be left behind at a kill shelter won't be.
Offering rehoming options before pets are abandoned at kill shelters.
Providing necessary medical and behavioral interventions for dogs we rescue.
Contributing to efforts to address dog overpopulation by ensuring that dogs we rescue are spayed/neutered.
Providing educational resources to communities with chronic overpopulation issues.
Mentoring the next generation of volunteers who will be committed and skilled at improving outcomes for dogs (and other animals) who have been abused, neglected, or unwanted.
