Story
Meet Blanca Breed: Pit Bull Mix Date of Birth: July 11, 2021 &#226&#154&#150&#239&#184&#143 Weight: 80 pounds Spayed & Healthy Intake Date: June 6, 2023 Blanca is a big, beautiful girl with a loving heart and a happy, eager spirit. She enjoys attention and affection from her people and has so much potential to thrive in the right home. This smart girl is currently in training through the Paws to Prison Program at Corcoran Prison, where she’s learning from dedicated inmate handlers. She’s working on important skills like sit, stay, and leash walking, helping her grow into a more confident and obedient companion. The structure and care of this program are helping Blanca build trust and become her best self. Notes from the trainer: Blanca is a gentle, 4-year-old American Pit Terrier/Dogo Argentino mix weighing about 85–90 pounds. Despite common misconceptions about her breed, she’s calm, motherly, and easy to love. Blanca is bilingual, responding to commands in both Spanish and English, and knows a variety of tricks and manners such as sitting, lying down, rolling over, staying, and waiting patiently for food. She’s house-trained, non-aggressive, and takes treats gently. Blanca is great with other dogs, enjoys tug-of-war, basketball, belly rubs, cuddling, and even baths. She’s ticklish on her chest and back legs, rarely barks, and communicates when she needs to go outside. While she dislikes loud noises and will chase lawnmowers, she loves golf cart rides. She’s curious about cats in a playful way. Due to past mistreatment, she may cower if hands move quickly near her face, but she remains affectionate and trusting. Overall, Blanca is a loving, well-mannered companion who craves attention, enjoys naps, and is looking for a safe, caring forever home. Special Considerations  Blanca may do best as the only dog in a home without young children. She’s selective with other animals and needs a calm, experienced owner who understands dog behavior and can continue her training with patience and consistency. Breed Information  Pit Bull mixes like Blanca are known for their loyalty, intelligence, and strong bonds with their humans. With proper guidance and a stable environment, they become deeply devoted, affectionate companions. They require exercise, socialization, and mental stimulation to stay balanced and happy. Owner Responsibilities &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143 Adopting Blanca means committing to: Daily exercise, structured routines, and continued positive reinforcement Regular veterinary care, quality food, and preventive health measures A calm, stable home where she feels safe and loved Advocating for her breed and being a responsible pet owner Things to Consider Before adopting Blanca, please ask yourself: Do you have experience with strong, intelligent breeds? Can you provide time, patience, and consistent leadership? Does your home (and landlord, if applicable) allow large dogs? Is your lifestyle suited to a one-dog household? A Commitment for Life Blanca is not an outdoor or chained dog—she's a family member who deserves to live indoors with love, safety, and respect. Adopting her means a lifetime commitment. She’s ready for a second chance with someone who believes in her and is ready to offer the structure and affection she needs. If you're experienced, understanding, and ready to offer Blanca the forever home she deserves, she’s ready to return that love tenfold. &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143   If you are interested in adopting this amazing dog, please follow the link https://www.ozzieandfriendsrescue.org/adoptions and fill out an application  Thank you for choosing Ozzie and Friends Rescue.

Story
Meet Benny Breed: Maltese Poodle Mix Date of Birth: November 17, 2020 Gender: Male (Neutered) Weight: 15 pounds Personality Benny is a gentle and somewhat skittish Maltese Poodle mix who thrives best in a calm and understanding environment. With his reserved nature, he tends to observe the world from a distance, often preferring solitude or the company of a trusted few. While shy at first, Benny's heart is full of potential for love and loyalty, waiting to be unlocked by a patient and nurturing family. He is selective with his canine companions, enjoying the company of other dogs that match his calm demeanor. With the right support, Benny can blossom into a loving companion, though he may need guidance in socializing and building confidence. Breed Information Maltese Poodle mixes, often called "Maltipoos," are known for their charming and affectionate nature. Combining the gentle, loving personality of the Maltese with the intelligence and playfulness of the Poodle, these dogs are cherished for their adaptability and friendly demeanor. Maltipoos are typically low-shedding, making them a popular choice for those with allergies. They thrive on human interaction and require mental and physical stimulation to keep them happy and engaged. What to Expect As an owner of a Maltese Poodle mix like Benny, you can expect a devoted but initially reserved companion. Benny will thrive in a home where he receives plenty of love and patience. His intelligence means he's capable of learning new tricks and commands with positive reinforcement, though he may require extra encouragement to come out of his shell. Benny's selective nature with other dogs means socialization will be a rewarding but gradual process, helping him become more comfortable in various settings. Owner's Responsibilities Exercise: Ensure Benny gets daily exercise through gentle walks and indoor play sessions. His small size doesn't demand extensive activity, but regular movement is essential for his well-being. Training: Enroll Benny in obedience classes to build his confidence and improve his social skills. Consistent training with positive reinforcement will help him feel more secure. Grooming: Regular grooming is crucial to maintain Benny's coat health. Brushing several times a week will prevent matting and keep his coat looking its best. Health Care: Keep up with routine veterinary visits and vaccinations. A balanced diet tailored to his size and lifestyle will support his overall health and well-being. Affection and Socialization: Provide Benny with plenty of love and gradual socialization opportunities. Encourage interactions with other dogs and people in a controlled and positive environment. Commitment for Life Adopting Benny means committing to a lifelong journey filled with patience, love, and companionship. Dogs like Benny are not just pets—they become cherished family members who rely on you for care and protection. It's important to remember that dogs should not be left alone for long periods, as they thrive on companionship and interaction. By choosing Benny, you are promising to provide a safe, nurturing, and loving home throughout his life. The happiness and love he will bring into your life are immeasurable, and your dedication to his well-being will enrich both your lives in countless ways.   If you are interested in adopting this amazing dog, please follow the link https://www.ozzieandfriendsrescue.org/adoptions or scan the QR code and fill out an application  Thank you for choosing Ozzie and Friends Rescue.
