Story
Hello My name is Titan, and I am roughly 8 months old. My story starts being found in a rural area hiding in a ditch with my 3 brothers. I was taken in by the rescue and my life has been good! I am the smallest of the brothers and will not be a big dog. I am all white except a cool marking around my eye and little freckles on my ears. I love people and enjoy being in your company. My foster mom said I can be a Velcro dog easy. I love going on walks and meeting new people and experiencing all the new smells. I am learning the commands , sit /come/leave it . I love getting treats for following commands but will also be happy with some loving. I think I am the smartest of all my brothers! Lol I have used a doggie door and slept on a kuranda bed. I have also slept in crate and stayed in the house all day with my foster mom. I am very flexible and smart. my favorite snack is raw carrots and squeeky toys keep me happy! Recently discovered ice cubes and peanut butter in a king. Love it I will make a wonderful family addition. Just no cats please All my vet work is done , including vaccinations, micro chipped and neutered. My fee covers transport from Tennessee

Story
Blue is a 2-3 year old, neutered Pit Bull mix who has basic house manners.  He was a one-owner dog in a great home until a few weeks ago. We thought he'd be great for us with our other dog, but we later found out due to dog reactivity he will need to be a single-dog home. He seems to be insistent on being alpha and doesn't seem to respect a female owner. He's shown dog reactivity, and recently some aggressive tendencies towards other dogs. He's incredibly smart, super trainable, and has been very sweet in-home, friendly with people and kids. He needs a place where he can get his energy out and loves to sleep and snuggle. Blue is such a special, sweet pup!   This is a courtesy post.  Please contact Jo Lord at jolordbills@gmail.com or call 212-203-5909 with any inquiries.
