Story
Meet Mongo! The beefcake English bulldog of Cat Crew is ready for his debut! He is just as charming as he is adorable! We scooped him up from the shelter with horrific skin issues, ear infections (stupid foxtails), eye infections, dehydrated, over heated, diarrhea and of course not neutered! We are guessing someone used him to breed for your Craigslist puppies but when he got too old he got dumped. We rushed him right to the vet for immediate care and he is healing beautifully! He is a senior boy at about 7 years old (they do not have the long lives we wish). He has dry eyes and will continue to need 2 eye drops daily, which is a very common bulldog issue. He is a very good boy and tolerates it just fine! Due to this going untreated for so long he is partially blind in one eye and completely blind in the other. But it truly doesn’t stop him from being your shadow in the garden or hopping on the couch! Bulldogs do also not tolerate the heat well so a cool climate or powerful AC is a must! He lives in a home with another dog and cats. He doesn’t have an aggressive bone in his body and everyone truly is his instant best friend! So if you’re committed to giving Mongo the best rest of his years with payment of wiggly nubby booty and the most gentle kisses- he is your guy! Mongo will be neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated. Mongo is about 7 years old.

Story
This little guy is named Spot because he is white with big brown spots. Someone dumped him near my house and he was found seeking shelter with his Mama and his brother Speck. He is really a sweetheart of a dog. I would love to keep them but I already have 2 dogs! With Mama and Speck and Spot, the doggies are all a bit of a handful. They get along great with my 2 older dogs of which one is older purebred rottie (12yrs) and another older mutt that is flat coat retriever, border collie, australian shepherd mix (13 yrs). They all play together, chase each other. Speck and Spot beat each other up and wrestle with one another just about all day. If you are interested in a crazy sweet pittie mix please let me know! I am sheltering them until they are adopted. thank you !

Story
Meet Ruby 💎 Ruby is an extremely sweet and loving girl. She loves her people so deeply and isn’t biased on who gets her love! A giant bucket of pure joy! She loves to chew her toys and indulge in her treats! Also has the endurance for short walks and loves to explore new things to sniff! But she takes a strong arm as she is learning to not pull still. Continuing training with her is ideal as she has some catching up to do! With proper introductions- she happily has lived with dogs before and still lives with cats! She does get overwhelmed with young children so we think it’s best that kids are older and respectful of animals. She is crate trained, potty trained and knows basic commands. The parts we know of her past is heartbreaking! She was rescued from the kill list at Devour Animal Shelter. She was obviously used as a breeder dog who had many litters with the c section scars to prove it! Her back leg muscles were weak and she had urine burns which means she didn’t get time out of a crate besides being bred. Due to her past, she takes time to trust that other dogs are her friends. Ruby has been vaccinated, microchipped and fixed! She is ready for her new home! Ruby is about 5 years old.

Story
Speck is Spot's brother and along with their mama was dumped behind my house. I've held on to them until I was able to "rehome" them. Speck is super crazy curious and is always the instigator in bothering Spot but they both love it. Speck also entertains himself! He spent more than 30 minutes one day, in my home office, behind me, playing and jumping on a squeak toy! He is very easily entertained. He loves his hooman mama as well as his real mama and sibling Speck. If you're interested in a super sweet pittie puppy, hit me up! I am unable to keep him because I already have 2 dogs. They all get along well ! I think these puppies need themselves a new owner who is focused just on them. thank you

Jojo is a sweet, sweet boy. He loves kids and being treated like a doll. Jojo and my daughter play together he is a gentle, patient and puts up with everything! Unfortunately, I have been diagnosed with stage 4 esophageal and liver cancer. Which means I only have a few months to live. I am trying to get everything in order so my dog and daughter are well cared for, safe and loved when I am no longer around to care for them.

Story
We are a busy family and have not had time to properly train Peyton. She’s a very loving dog that wants a lot of attention. Gets along with cats but does chase them outside. I have tried to re-home her with other dogs in house hold and has not worked out. I think she could learn to be with other dogs but would need someone with time, patience and training to teach her. Great with kids.
