Due to ongoing health issues and significant stress, we are no longer able to meet this dogs needs in the way she deserves.

I want to ensure she goes to a home that's a better fit. She is very empathetic and smart, and HIGH ENERGY. I am looking for an EXPERIENCED dog owner/ trainer who loves a challenge. She's very loyal to her person. Given the right training she could be the ideal companion.

I got my dog from a lady who rescued it from another lady. She was born March 2024. I’m looking for a home that can help her with her anxiety, and be there more than us. We work way too much. She is wild, hyper, smart. She does have a bit of separation anxiety.

Story
Henny likes all the attention on her and gets jealous easily. She is super lovable and will sit on a lap and give hugs. She loves to cuddle, she gets really excited when she sees other dogs, cats and her favorite are squirrels. She is strong and might try to chase ine of these animals so a tight grip and some muscle is needed to hold her back. She is very smart and learned magic tricks when she was a puppy however other command have been challenging including potty time so a little bit of love and training could make her the perfect companion although she is just perfect already.!

Crystal

American Pit Bull Terrier

Female, Young
Crystal City, MO
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Needs special attention, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Crystal is one of the sweetest dogs you will ever meet. She loves to be around people and has the energy to play all day. She loves to give kisses and lean into you whenever she can, and if you spray some water with a hose she will happily try to eat it. But, she was born with a bad set of genes. She has some significant allergies (I have a list) and has to eat a Hydrolized PPA diet prescribed by the vet. She also has reactions because some of her allergies are somewhat unavoidable. She needs lots of exercise and training. I have done everything I can to help her family care for her both financially and physically, but it’s just not enough and I can no longer afford to care for her. She needs lots of love and care. If you have the financial, physical, and emotional ability to give her what she needs, I know she will repay you as the most loyal dog.

Scooter is a farm dog and very Border Collie behavior. He does not fit our family due to having an autistic child in the home. He is very energetic and excitable but friendly. He deserves a home with someone that can spend the time with him and include him in daily life.
