Story
Zilla is a rescue dog that we got from a family member, who took him from an unprofessional group of breeders. his tail was clipped and these backyard breeders had other untrained pitbulls who often got into fights. for this we took him and haven’t been able to spend enough time with him. he will be very hyper but after a couple hours he calms down eventually. he loves to play and he loves attention. as far as potty training, he goes straight after the crate and he shouldn’t go again for a couple of hours at least. over all when it comes to food he never gets controlling. he struggles with chewing on stuff over his toys. he can sit, shake, go to crate (when holding a treat), some times he can lay down on command. overall a good dog after being trained and neutered. he is not neutered but us as owners will absolutely PAY FOR THE SURGERY ENTIRELY. he needs to be rescued.

Story
Ellie Mae was born April 5, 2020. She grew up with a dog brother (who sadly passed away) and a cat sister, Moe. Ellie is a calm girl who loves sleeping, treats, and occasionally getting the zoomies when she’s excited. I rescued Ellie when she was about 6 months old from a very abusive situation where she had been beaten and starved. I’ve spent years giving her love and stability, but she is still a very timid dog who needs a patient, experienced owner. When she gets scared or anxious, she may have accidents. Ellie would do best in a quiet home with a yard or open space to use the bathroom and would thrive as an only dog or in a small household. She is not suited for apartment living. I am rehoming Ellie because I travel frequently for the military and have recently been re stationed out the country & Ellie cannot come with me.. regardless, she needs & deserves a more stable environment. My goal is to find her a stable, loving home where she can feel safe & prioritized.
