Story

Blue is an adorable 3-year-old petite pit mix. She weighs about 37 lbs. She is a huge cuddle bug and loves nothing more than to be around her people. She loves snuggling, walks, and car rides. Blue spends most of her day napping and looking for cuddles, but her energy comes out for walks and visitors. Blue calms down after a few minutes. She can be a resource guarder so it’s best she goes to a home without small children and other pets. She is potty and crate trained and knows all the basic commands. Blue is spayed, microchipped, and up to date with all her shots.

Male, Young

Size

(when grown) X-Large 101 lbs (46 kg) or more

Details

House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Bosa is a great dog that just needs a more quiet and less active home. Our 4 kids like to carryon and rough house with each other and he gets very upset and thinks they hurting each other. He does great in the house and can be left alone without having any bathroom accidents inside. He also does great outside left alone and has never tried to run away. Bosa has always been an only dog so we not sure how he’d get along with another but I would think he would be just fine. He truly is a great dog but just doesn’t seem very happy here. It’s not fair to him to keep him around a very rambunctious household when all he wants to do is relax in the peace. Our kids also play a lot of sports that keeps us away on the weekends and he’s not a fan at all of going to the kennel. He’s also protective of his household and doesn’t like people coming to care for him when we’re not here. Please let me know if you have any questions about Bosa or if you would like to meet him! He’s a real cool dude!

Mt. Airy, MD

House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

  DESCRIPTION:  Apollo's owner loved him greatly but struggled to keep him safe and in the household. As a result, Apollo spent too much time wandering about the neighborhood and checking in with the neighbors.  Unfortunately, this resulted in too many trips to animal control. Due to his frequent visits, Animal Control decided that Apollo would be safer if he moved forward with a new family.  Apollo is a big, sweet guy. Although it is clear that he has not had a lot of structure prior to his arrival, he is a quick learner and seems to prefer a calm yet confident handler. Apollo has lived with a couple of cats and has done well with them. He seems unaffected by their presence and is calm with them around. Having met a variety of dogs in his travels, Apollo has made it clear that he can live peacefully with another dog. However, he is not a big fan of high-energy dogs who get in his face. We can't blame him for setting his boundaries. Apollo is looking for a forever home that will provide him with the guidance and routine that will help him thrive. He will benefit greatly from training with his new family. This will not only help him bond to his new family but it will also help him develop the skills needed to become a good canine citizen. If your household is looking for a big, laid back guy, ask to meet Apollo today! April 23, 2024, 5:16 pm
