Story

Sokka (A143792) is a Lab x Pit mix puppy available for adoption! Foster update: Sokka has a bit more of a reserved personality. However, he does give the best cuddles! 10/15/26 These adorable little friends were surrendered to the shelter and are looking for their new home. In typical puppy fashion they will need continued help with potty training, kennel training, basic commands, and continued positive socialization! They were described as very affectionate puppies and have already started on potty pad training! Puppies are a lot of work but worth the reward if you have the time to devote to them. If you are interested in meeting any of these adorable nuggets, please let us know! November 1, 2026, 2:55 am

*CAMERON

Pit Bull Terrier

Male, Young

Fairbanks, AK

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Story

Cameron (A143862) is a 1-year-old Pitbull who weighed 42.1 pounds on intake! 10/26/26 This cute but shy guy is Cameron! Cameron arrived at the shelter as a stray and is now looking for his new place to call home! He has been very timid since arriving at the shelter, but we have found that he likes treats! He is looking for a patient home who will allow him time to come around and truly warm up to them! Since he was a stray, we do not know his experience level around children or other animals. Because of his shy demeanor, he may do best in a home without small children or at least with kiddos that can respect his boundaries. We do not know if he has any basic obedience or if he is fully housebroken. However, he has done well while at the shelter. Cameron did arrive at the shelter with a broken tooth and courtesy of the shelter fund was sent out for an OHAT. If you are interested in meeting Cameron, please let us know!

Binky was surrendered to the shelter due to housing issues and is now looking for his new place to call home! He is a livestock guardian breed and was stated to LOVE being outside in the summertime but does come inside for the winter. He was said to be kennel trained, housebroken, and knows his basic commands! Binky has never been around babies but was said to do well with children! He can be cautious of strangers but warms up quickly! Binky was said to get along well with other dogs. He was also said to love the cat in the home, but the cat wasnâÂÂt as delighted with his presence. He has been around livestock but has not been a true working dog. Please ensure you are making slow, safe, and controlled introductions with all new animals to help set him up for success! Binky was said to have few naughty tendencies like getting into the trash when unsupervised, digging outdoors, and will jump a fence if the opportunity presents itself. He is a big young guy looking for a home to love and learn in! If you are interested in meeting Binky, please let us know! November 1, 2026, 2:55 am

Marilyn was surrendered to the shelter and looking for her new place to call home. She comes from a sled dog background and does well in harness. However, it was noted that she doesnâÂÂt love the sled-dog lifestyle and may do better as a pet dog or in a small recreational team.
