Story

Isaac is an 11-year-old, 7 lb. Yorkie fellow being fostered near Roanoke, VA Hi, friends! I’m Isaac, an approximately 11-year-old Yorkie gentleman, and I’m officially ready to find my forever home! I’m a sweet senior boy who enjoys the company of other small dogs and does well with children over age 5. I haven’t been around toddlers or cats, so I’m not sure what I think of them yet. I’m now up to date on my veterinary care and feeling so much better after being treated for a painful double ear infection. My bloodwork looks good, and I’m microchipped and ready to begin my next chapter! I love spending time outdoors with my person, going for car rides, and taking walks—I’m very good on a leash. I’ll potty outside, although I do occasionally have an accident indoors. I also enjoy my meals, treats, and relaxing in my crate, especially when the door is left open so I can come and go as I please. I’m not a full-time lap dog, but I will happily curl up on your lap for a cozy little nap. My ideal home would be with someone who is home much of the day and wants a loving, easygoing companion to share life with. If you have room in your heart and home for a handsome senior gentleman, please submit an adoption application for me. I can’t wait to meet my forever family!

This doesn't really hinder his movement at all, he can run and climb steps just fine. He is a very affectionate dog and loves attention, but needs to have an experienced owner that knows the breeds and has done their research on what owning a working dog is like.

Rose

Pit Bull Terrier

Roanoke, VA

Size

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

Details

Good with kids,

Story

Rose initially made her way to Roanoke from West Virginia in pretty rough shape. She was severely emaciated and in need of medical attention, but with lots of care and time to recover, she's doing so much better! Now, she's ready for her next chapter with a family of her own. Our kennel staff describe Rose as a sweet, gentle girl who absolutely loves belly rubs and spending time with people. She's pretty calm and easygoing most of the time, but she also has occasional bursts of playful energy! She's just as happy soaking up affection as she is having a little fun. Rose does well with respectful kids and would love a home where she can enjoy plenty of love and attention. She can be a little cautious when meeting other dogs, so slow introductions and some patience will help her feel more comfortable. Rose has come a long way since arriving at the shelter, and now all she's missing is a family to call her own. Stop by to meet this lovely girl!
