Story
Hello, my name is Jack Jack and I am a Cattle dog mix! I'm a silly, cuddly boy with lots of energy. Sometimes I get nervous meeting new people, so someone willing to go slow and work on my stranger danger is ideal! I love to chase things like cars and cats so a fenced in yard would be best for me. I also love tennis balls and long walks! If you're interested in me, give us a call or fill out and application on our website!

Not good with dogs,
Story
This is Hazard! He is your typical block headed pitty man! Hazard is a very sweet soul and is estimated to be about 4 years old. He would prefer a home as the only dog at the moment. He would be able to have dog friends, but would do best in the home as the only pet. Kids 8+ for Hazard as he doesn't have a ton of experience and is quite large. He enjoys walks and swimming in the pool! Would you want to be this guy's adventure buddy? Fill out an application to meet him today!

Story
I'm one of FIVE puppies that are available for adoption at the RISPCA! We are pitbull type mixes, so we'll likely be medium sized dogs. My rambunctious puppy friends and I are looking for active families! I really enjoy playing and running around with my siblings and would love to have another dog friend and playmate in my new home! I'm still very young and I could easily integrate into most households. Kids and cats are okay for me to go home with. It's important that someone is willing to do training with me so I can learn my basic obedience skills! If you're interested in meeting me, fill out an application on our website!
