Story
Mya is a 4 year old baby. We have had her since 5 weeks old and love her. We are moving and can't take her with us so need to find her a living home with kids. She is the best dog I have ever seen with young children. We have 4 from ages 1 to 13 and she lives them all never even growled at one of them ever. She did hurt her back leg when around 6 months of age so not super active and needs a nice comfy spot to sleep in. She is house broken and crate trained She does not mess up the house when we are gone just won't stay off the furniture is why she is crated. She has never been around a cat but does fine with small animals in the yard. She loves car rides and cuddles and tends to be a male and kid dog. She still loves females just tends to not think she has to listen to them as well. She is up-to-date on rabies and fixed and microchiped.

Story
Bianca is a very sweet and active girl who would do best with someone that enjoys hiking and long walks. She is learning how to walk on a leash without pulling, but she just gets so excited she can`t help it sometimes.Bianca loves people and is usually more interested in humans more than she is other dogs. She has met and co-walked very well with another dog while at the shelter.

Story
Hi there! My name is Gabriel and I`m a handsome American Bulldog mix! I love - and I mean LOVE - people! I am incredibly sweet and affectionate (seriously, cuddles are my jam), active, playful and happy to do anything - as long as it`s doing something with you. You might notice from my photos I have one working eye. I got hurt awhile back but don`t worry, it has healed and doesn`t bother me at all! Now if I was a vain kind of pup, I would ask to have surgery. I think it adds character to go along with my good looks. And having just one eye doesn`t affect my love for life! I`m confident I`d make a perfect companion to someone who likes being active, licked and loved. Does that sound like you? Let`s meet!

MARINA

American Staffordshire Terrier

Female, 3 yrs 6 mos
Clyde, NC
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Marina is a sweet lady that has never quite shed all of her puppy energy. She is estimated to be 3 years old, weighs in at just over 50 lbs, and an active family and/or plenty of outdoor space is a must. Marina can be a bit one-track minded, but treats will help bring her into focus. A former trapeze artist, she was forced into an early retirement when her travelling circus shut down (times are tough, folks), So she`s crashing with us until the right people fall in love with her. She also enjoys Korean cuisine, reruns of Law & Order, and working on her 1983 Volvo 240

Story
Noble is 50lbs, stocky, and handsome! He is the quickest sitter we have here too! All you have to do is ask him to sit for a treat or before you throw a toy for him to fetch and his derriere hits the ground! All the volunteers love his energy. He would be an awesome buddy for an active couple that likes being on the go. Whether it be hiking or throwing a Frisbee. Noble is a happy, joyful boy who loves meeting people and would be up for any adventure.
