Otto

Greyhound American Staffordshire Terrier

Male, 2 yrs 8 mos
West Haven, CT
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Otto is the perfect mix of a playful puppy and a distinguished dog. He was rescued from the side of the street in Puerto Rico by his amazing foster mom there. He loves playing and running with anyone that has the energy to keep up. His Puerto Rican foster mom would run 5-miles with him every day to help him get his energy out and to keep him occupied because he really wanted to chase her cats. We do not recommend a house with cats but he is great with kids, adults, and dogs of all sizes. At his current foster family, he runs in the fenced-in yard with his foster brother. He knows basic commands but his curiosity does get the best of him sometimes. Otto is incredibly smart and is truly the perfect size companion. If you love him he will never leave your side, in the best way possible.

Selma

Akita Husky

Female, adult
New Haven, CT
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
We adopted Selma about 3 years ago from a shelter in Los Angeles that had received her as a stray. However she was house trained and knew basic commands from before we got her. She is a mix (mostly Akita and husky) and is about 50 pounds, maybe 7-8 years old. She is generally very sweet and calm, doesn’t get along with dogs very well but loves most humans. Selma has demonstrated reactivity and defensiveness when it comes to territory and resources, and has some anxiety, but is a total couch potato most of the time and is fine being at home by herself for extended periods. Unfortunately as my girlfriend and I are moving cities and experiencing some major life changes, we won’t have the time, resources, and expertise necessary to take the proper care of her. We are looking for an experienced dog owner who can give Selma the time, attention, and love she deserves!
