Tom

American Pit Bull Terrier

Male, 3 yrs 3 mos

The Colony, TX

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Story

Tom is a 3-year-old neutered male Pitbull mix with a stunning brindle coat and a big, loving heart. This energetic guy thrives when he has space to stretch his legs, so a house with a fenced-in backyard would be ideal for him. He absolutely loves going on walks, and he has the cutest habit—sometimes he’ll pause, look up at you, and gently ask for a hug. Lean in, and he’ll reward you with the biggest, happiest smile!Tom prefers the company of women and is uncomfortable around most men. Because of this, he will do best in a women-only household. He has been working with our trainer to build confidence around men, and he has made progress, but this will be an ongoing journey that his new family must be ready to continue.He is also most successful as the only dog in the home, and due to his nervous energy, he should not live with children. Tom is full of joy with the people he trusts—he adores our female volunteers, loves playtime with his toys, and shines when he feels safe and understood.If you`re looking for a loyal, affectionate companion who will reward your patience with endless love, hugs, and heart-melting smiles, Tom is ready to meet his perfect match.

Kenai is a 9-month-old neutered male Carolina Dog/Heeler mix with a soft tan coat and an eager heart that’s ready to learn and love. This young pup is the perfect blend of playful energy and sweet devotion—he truly just wants to make his people proud.Kenai is still working on his basic manners, especially learning not to jump when he gets excited. When his excitement kicks in, he can also be a little mouthy in a playful puppy way.

He’s smart, willing, and eager to please, and with consistent training and patience, he’s going to shine.He loves going for walks and exploring the world, but due to some older healing wounds on his neck, Kenai is most comfortable being walked on a harness right now. This goofy guy enjoys running, playing, and getting all his zoomies out, so a house with a yard would be the ideal setup for him.Kenai appears dog-friendly, though meet and greets are required to ensure compatibility with any pets already in the home. He rides well in the car and has a serious weakness for pup cups—nothing makes him happier than a tasty reward for being a good boy!If you’re looking for a loving, enthusiastic companion who’s ready to learn, grow, and thrive with a patient and kind family, Kenai is excited to become the amazing dog he’s meant to be.
