Story
I adopted Booboo some years ago from a shelter in Pennsylvania. He was a rescue dog and for the most part was good for me and my kids. It took a while for him to get used to them. I’m not sure what happened to booboo before us. He is a very good dog most likely will need to be adopted by adults or older. People is very energetic and loves to be outside, but he’s not good with children especially small children. He’s very aggressive and Monstah bite. I’ve tried really hard to get him to stop doing this, but it just can’t and me and my fiancé are now wanting to share our place and we have a young child. That’s only three years old and Booboo has already tried to bite her a lot and I’ve had to keep him in the cage while she’s here and it’s just unfair to him, especially when we do get the place together he will only be in the cage more and more. I hope he just gets a good home and he’s loved for the remaining years that he has.

Story
Meet Riley 🖤🤍 Riley is a beautiful 6 y/o black Staffordshire Bull Terrier with white markings, born January 1st. She is house trained and knows basic commands. Her favorite thing is being outside, she could play fetch all day and would make the perfect outdoor companion. Riley is good with children but needs to be the only pet in the home, as she does not get along with other animals. She also needs someone willing to continue working with her on leash walking. She is not spayed and experiences anxiety in stressful situations, especially at the vet. Because of this, she has previously snapped while being muzzled during a veterinary visit. And requires anxiety meds in stressful situations. And does not do well in kennels either. This is an incredibly difficult decision, and my only goal is to find Riley a loving, experienced home where she can live her best life.
