Story
We have had Judd for about 10 years – he is great with adults, but not super great with children. We are having to rehome due to behavioral issues and due to downsizing and moving to a place that does not accept pets. The perfect dog parent would be someone who is patient and experienced. Judd loves car rides and walks. He has slowed to warm up to other dogs and adult adults, but once he warms up, he’s great.

Story
her name is raven, she’s a razorback colby pitbull mixed she’s around 2-4 years old. she was born on march 18th 2022, we received her on may 7th 2022. she was cared for indoors up until july 2025 where she would destroy furniture and potty despite taking her outside to do so if left uncrated & unattended upon hours. once cared for outdoors she would escape her XL pen multiple times every 1-3 weeks to roam around the neighborhood and terrorize people in the neighborhood whom are scared. she had became a stressful problem to the family because we are unsure on how to keep her under control we’ve tried training ourselves which she cancels out with disobedience and we have no funds to pay a professional trainer. she is an extreme jumper which is why i would say not good with adults and/or kids, she has food aggression towards other dogs not towards people. we’re hoping someone could help, this was our last resort.

Story
Bubba is a German Shepherd mix who is about 8 years of age. He is a very lovable dog who is protective over his family. He loves getting pets, lounging around, playing fetch and going on walks. We believe that finding another family who is better fit for him would be the best for our family. We are pregnant with our second child. Our baby is diagnosed with a severe heart condition which will require lots of medical needs. Our child will also be considered medically fragile. Bubba is vocal and barks when a baby/child cries. He is food aggressive towards his own food (other dogs and small children around his food). We just separate him when feeding him and that works well. He would be great for a family with no small children and a fenced in yard.

Meet Hattie Hattie is a spirited and intelligent pup looking for a very special home! Her energy, drive, and enthusiasm make her an excellent candidate for experienced handlers who can continue her training and channel her talents. While she walks beautifully on leash and enjoys meeting new people, she would thrive best as the only dog in the home. She loves older kids and would make an outstanding companion for someone interested in dog sports or an active lifestyle. If you’re looking for a loyal, energetic partner to take on new adventures with, Hattie may be your perfect match!

Story
Where are my pittie mix lovers? This sweet girl is looking for a place to call home—even a foster home until her forever family finds her. Meet Ginger: She’s been let down time and time again, and her life hasn’t been easy. But despite it all, Ginger is full of love and adores every human she meets. She can get a little annoyed with dogs that aren’t super friendly, but with a calm canine sibling, she does great! Ideally, Ginger would be the only fur baby, but she’s proven she can coexist—she lived happily with a gentle giant and even with two other dogs. Sure, she has that classic pittie energy, but that just makes her fun and full of life! If you’d like to foster Ginger until adoption or give her the forever home she deserves, please reach out. Let’s make her holidays bright! 📧 wilma@usdogcoalition.org
