Dino (pronounced DEE-no) is the most loving canine companion you could ever hope to meet. He is friendly to humans of all ages, and loves to play with other dogs.

Every time you walk in the door Dino will greet you with excited spins and tail wagging. He shows his love with kisses as well. Dino loves treats and belly rubs. He will win your heart with his handsome face, silky coat, and bubbly personality. He has plenty of energy and loves his walks, but also enjoys cuddling up on the couch.

Story

Meet Marley ❤️ Marley is a sweet, affectionate, energetic boy looking for the right home. He loves being around people, enjoys walks and playtime, and has a puppy-like personality. He loves playing with other dogs. We adopted Marley two months ago and cannot keep him as our resident dog is unable to accept him. We’re unsure of his exact age, somewhere between 3-5 years and he weighs 12lbs. He loves all females but appears afraid of men, so giving him lots of affection and treats eventually wins him over. Marley would do best in a home that can give him time, attention, and structure. He is smart and learns quickly, as he’s very treat motivated. Although he is house trained, he has shown marking behavior around our dog during this transition. He needs an owner who is patient and willing to train. If you are interested in adopting Marley please send us an application or contact us at xxxx@xxxx.x

Story

Meet Matrix: your new best friend, whether you're ready or not!Matrix is excited to see you. He's excited to see everyone. Honestly, if you're within his general vicinity, Matrix has already decided you're his new best friend.I like to call him a "people's pit" - the kind of dog who is an absolute ambassador for the breed. He's affectionate, social, playful, and genuinely thrilled to spend time with his people. Give him some attention and he'll happily soak it up. Give him a toy and he's ready to party. Give him a chance to get outside and put his nose to work, and you've got one very happy dog.Matrix especially enjoys those good, leisurely walks where his nose takes the lead. He loves exploring his surroundings and investigating all the fascinating smells the world has to offer, so his ideal human will appreciate that a walk with Matrix is about more than just getting from Point A to Point B.And despite his enthusiasm for pretty much every human he encounters, Matrix is also dog friendly! He could potentially be a great addition to a multi-dog household with the right canine companion.Cats, however, are a hard no. Matrix gets a little too excited about feline friends and hasn't quite figured out the appropriate social etiquette. For his safety and the safety of any resident cats, he'll need a cat-free home.If you're looking for a big-hearted, people-loving, playful pit mix who will greet you like you're the most exciting thing he's seen all day - every single day - Matrix would love to meet you. And fair warning: he's probably already excited about it.If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website www.savehomelessanimals.org. SAVE is operating by appointment-only for approved adopters. For more information please call SAVE at 609-309-5214. Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Weight: 42.375 Age: 4yrs 0mths 1wks
