Dogo Argentino puppies and dogs in Washington

This is Onyx. He is 3 years old. Onyx is a very loving dog. He loves people and most dogs. He is very high energy. He needs constant stimulation and exercise. I have been dealing with ongoing and progressive health issues that makes me immobile at times. I cannot exert his energy the way he needs. My boyfriend works two jobs and also cannot. He is just not getting what he needs from us and we do not have access to a place for him to run and play freely. This is not what we want to do. We love him and have had him from a puppy. But we can tell he would be happier with someone who can be more attentive and active. We only want what is best for Onyx. Would do best with someone who can walk him daily or someone who has a fenced yard for him to play in. He likes other dogs but has a history of resource guarding. We would recommend no other small animals or livestock either.

This is for an experienced owner who knows how to deal with potentially dangerous dogs. He is well trained and I do occasionally take him to work, take him around town and he has been socialized a lot as a young dog. Due to his prey drive needs a home without other animals or kids. He is very mellow at home and likes to be a couch potato most of the time. He absolutely cannot be around other animals and is meant to be a hunter He has a sensitive stomach and does great on Costco turkey grain free kibble but can’t have most dog food. He also takes generic Zyrtec for allergies. It took years to find what works for him and this combo is great and inexpensive. He needs a one person home in a rural area. He will only go to a home that can guarantee he is not going to be around other animals or kids ever. No dog parks. Fenced yard. This dog loves his owners, has some human friends and mostly gets along well with his dog roommate. It will take a special person to get him.

Forever home or foster needed. Say hello to Zen! He is a 2-year-old, 92lb Dogo Argentino. He came to us as a stray from CA and is a little underweight. His ideal weight is 100-105, so he is a big boy! Zen is a loving and sweet pup and will thrive in the right home. He is happy and energetic and will make a great companion for an active and structured home. He loves pets, treats and hanging with his people! We are looking for Dogo or like-breed experienced adopter as he is very strong and does need some training support. He is a big puppy and will need a family that will continue basic obedience. He can get excited and is learning not to jump up. He is very treat motivated and is smart, he will learn quickly with a committed adopter! Zen has been great with all the people he has met in our rescue so far. He can do well with other dogs and will do well in a home that can continue proper socializing. Zen is neutered, UTD on shots and microchipped. His adoption fee is $500.

This sweet boy is a LOVER, he adores people, and exudes so much gratitude for each and every pet. His name is Hector Zeroni and he lives up to every part of the “happy hoppy goofy goober” portion of his name. Hector almost immediately became a rescue favorite, his goofy and bright personality brings joy everywhere he goes. Social and friendly, great with other dogs, easy on leash, is so smart, loving and friendly, he’s a dream dog. Hector is such a good boy! He shines in a lot of areas but he shines the most in his ability to make you laugh! When he’s super excited and happy (which he’s happy all the time) he does this full spin hops in the air like he’s a dancing goat. It’s the cutest and funniest thing ever! You’ll catch little glimpses of it in his video. We suspect Hector to be a Dogo Argentino, Pit Bull mix, around 3 years old. He is a rescue so her exact age and breed are unknown to us and cannot be guaranteed. He weighs in around 50 pounds. Fall in love with Hector here: https://youtu.be/aRX4bkcNN78?si=4DYZIPbcYcKsZv0V In his foster home and here at the rescue, Hector does not have indoor accidents. He’s great in the car, and has taken long drives while sharing the backseat with other pups. No anxiety, or barking from this boy- just a confident car rider looking forward to the destination. He is also very easy on leash and would make an excellent hiking, or camping buddy. He loves his outside time too, whether it’s enjoying some happy little zoomies or romping with other dogs, Hector is just happy to bask in the sunshine. Hector has a goofy and silly play style, with lots of hops, tail wags and chase. He will engage in those rumble and tumble moments with other dogs and also knows when it's time for a play break as well. He also isn't the type that is going to be overly pushy about wanting to play either. Hector is great when he is around other dogs that don't like to play. He's simply off doing his own thing or he's getting spoiled with affection from people. In a home, he would do best with an aloof medium energy female that enjoys playing and also appreciates those calmer moments as well. If you don't have other dogs, that's fine too! Hector doesn't need the company of other dogs to be his happy goofy self. He's that way all on his own and he'll love all the attention too. No kitties for Hector please, he was a little too interested in our house cat biggie. With humans, Hector is up for just about anything! This sweet boy has never met a stranger, and is so quick to give away his big pittie kisses. Hector will play tug of war, or catch toys in his mouth. He’s also happy to just hang out and get some pets. Indoors, Hector has excellent house manners. He loves the couch, and he’s soooo snuggly. Hector is deaf, which we suspect to be genetic- he is a white pittie, and deafness is common with white pitties. Hector’s foster family is learning how to teach him hand commands, though Hector is a rescue and lots of life experience that we don’t know much about. Hector seems to already know at least some hand signals, watch his video to see him “sit” on command! Because he is deaf, Hector won’t respond to a verbal “no,” but he does respond well to a squirt of water. Water guns or spray bottles will be your best friend as you teach Hector how to be your perfect dog. Hector is food-motivated and love-motivated, a VERY smart and eager-to-please boy that will pick up on training quickly. Hector’s deafness will be his super power in your home, Hector isn’t scared of thunderstorms or fireworks because he can’t hear them. He isn’t overwhelmed by loud, hectic households. If you’re someone who enjoys hosting, Hector is super social, friendly, and doesn’t mind hearing lots of voices or loud music! Sounds like a match made in heaven to me! Hector would do best in a feline-free home, but he’s not too picky about anything else! We believe he would do well in a single dog or multiple dog household, as a family dog or a companion to a single person. Small children may not be a good match for Hector, without hearing, dogs can easily be startled by hard touches from little ones. Hector may be best suited for a home with kids 10+, old enough to understand, and work around his deafness. Hector will be a perfect match for you if: you’ve recently taken up the tuba and aren’t very good yet, frequently host, only drive with loud music, or live in a busy city. Actually, Hector would LOVE living in an ultra-urban area- new friends on all of his walks, tons of scents to sniff and lots of things to do? Sign him up! If you’re looking for a sweet, smart boy with SO much love to give, Hector is your guy. This boy is SO good. We are willing to test this handsome little guy with anything you need us to in order to ensure he’s the perfect match for you. If you have any questions about him, please reach out to his adoption coordinator, who would be thrilled to have a discussion with you about this sweet angel boy. Meet Hector Zeroni in person in Friendswood, Texas, or virtually via video chat to get to know him better. Please email priya@threelittlepittiesrescue.org with any questions.

Three Little Pitties Rescue is a nonprofit dog and cat rescue that partners with the community to make a difference. Our mission is to reduce the homeless pet population through community outreach, free spay and neuter services, and saving all breeds of dogs and cats from the streets or animal shelters that oftentimes have no other option but to euthanize animals for space. This dog you’ve found online is lucky to be in our program, and even luckier to have you notice it! Three Little Pitties wants to set you and your new pet up for success!

From the moment they are accepted into our program, our Intake, Behavior & Medical teams prepare them for adoption by properly vetting, behaviorally assessing, and providing customized plans depending on the dog’s needs.
