Story
Haizyl is a sweet, loving 7-year-old Pit Bull mix who loves food, attention, and being with her people. She has a big personality and enjoys “helping” in the kitchen—especially when human food is involved!Affectionate and playful, Haizyl loves belly rubs, long walks, playtime, and plush toys. She’ll even “talk” back when spoken to! She isn’t typically a barker but will alert you when something unusual catches her attention.Haizyl is house-trained and enjoys spending time outdoors. After a walk or play session, she’s happy to curl up for a nap. She does well with baths, though she may try to escape, and her recurring ear infections require regular cleaning and care.Haizyl has lived with cats and other dogs, but she may need careful introductions with other dogs. She would also be happy as your only pet, receiving plenty of love and attention.

Story
I am looking for a good home for my very sweet and affectionate 3 year old pit bull, Astro. He's amazing with people and very social. He's energetic, but nothing but pure love. My home situation is unfortunately changing, and my schedule is getting busier. I want him to be in the hands of someone who will be able to give him the time, attention, and care he deserves.

Story
Jada was born + bred in Iowa, purchased from Canine Corral on Long Island NY zip code 11746. I have all the paperwork from when I got her. DOB June 7th, 2023. I got her October 2023. I paid about $1500 USD for her + medical bills. She was spayed before she turned 1 years old. A sweet heart, does not bark often at all. Loves other humans, kids and dogs. I clean her ears 1-2x a week she produces a lot of earwax. I originally got Jada while in a relationship and said relationship ended, then had to travel often and I can’t afford to keep paying for boarding + taking care of her. She really is a sweet heart that just wants attention but I don’t have the time or energy to give her what she deserves. She has an okay life with me but I know she’ll have an amazing life elsewhere. Help make that possible. Jada deserves it. Hope this message finds you well. Thank you

Story
Luna is a loving, loyal, goofy Velcro dog looking for her person. This is incredibly difficult for me to write because Luna has been a deeply loved member of our family since 2018. Unfortunately, changes in our home and my current physical limitations and work schedule mean that I can no longer give her the environment and attention she loves and deserves. Luna is the sweetest definition of a Velcro dog. She wants to be near her people, loves affection, and is happiest when she feels like she is part of whatever you’re doing, even if that means laying next to you with just one part of her body touching you. She is sweet, playful, cuddly, eager to please, and incredibly loving. She does have allergies to chicken flavoring (not chicken) and seasonal.https://www.facebook.com/ACDRA.org/posts/pfbid0uf825ENifCnwAdyuxC4FE6joR2nfofPvGY8yRKJyuuyZ3wmQgTffcyQXFZTS6mbol?rdid=0maUIuq7bgYOkxny#
