Story
Hi I'm Fenton! I am a young shepherd mix and I'm searching for my forever home. I absolutely love playing with toys and I have endless energy! I would love to have a person to take me hiking or train me in some kind of dog sport. I have been working with the trainer on basic obedience and doing very well! My caregivers think I would excel in a sport or by having a "job" as I am very driven, food motivated and eager to please. My brothers Fritz and Farley are also at the rescue and we are all very similar! I am neutered and up to date on vaccines and dewormings. I will be microchipped at adoption.

Story
Meet Bear 🐻💙 At first glance, Bear can look a little intimidating — tall ears, serious face, that classic German Shepherd presence. But give him about 30 seconds and you’ll see the truth: Bear is just a big love wrapped in a “tough guy” package. Bear is 2½ years old and absolutely thrives once he feels safe. He loves affection, leans in for pets, and bonds deeply with his people. He’s the kind of dog who wants to be near you, quietly loyal and incredibly sweet. Bear would do best in a home with a secure privacy fence, where he can feel protected and relaxed while enjoying time outdoors. With the right space and a patient, loving family, Bear will blossom into the devoted companion he’s meant to be. Behind the strong exterior is a dog who just wants a chance — a chance to belong, to be loved, and to finally have a home to call his own. If you’re looking for a loyal best friend with a heart as big as his paws, Bear is waiting 🖤🐾

Story
Hi! Mingo checking in from the Indian pups. I am generally quiet and cuddly, but I love to run and play too - like any puppy! I get along and love to play with my siblings. I am smart and very eager to please my humans. I have already learned to sit when asked and when I'm waiting on my food. Did I mention I like to cuddle? I am a total sweetheart just looking for my forever family. I would be a great best friend! I am currently working on crate training, house breaking and some basic commands. I am still pretty young and I am learning about good manners. Please understand that while I am doing well on potty and crate training, I'm still a baby and will have accidents and may whine some as I adjust to my new schedule and family. ADOPTION FEE: $400 (All MVPC dogs are heartworm-tested and on prevention, completely vetted, spayed/neutered, microchipped, crate-trained and house-trained) ADOPTER: Dog experience BIRTHDAY: 10/26/2025 FENCE: Required (an electric fence is not an acceptable form of containment) DOG FRIENDLY: Yes DOGS IN HOME: Yes CATS: Unknown CHILDREN: Yes, 8 and over I AM ALMOST READY TO GO HOME - My appointment to be neutered is February 3rd! If you are approved to be my new family, a hold fee of $100 is required and will be applied to the full adoption fee of $400 when MVPC comes to visit your house with me! ***WE DO NOT HOLD DOGS. IF YOU ARE GOING ON VACATION OR ARE NOT YET READY TO PROCEED PLEASE APPLY WHEN YOU ARE.*** INQUIRIES: ALL inquiries begin with a submitted adoption application, which is found on our website, www.miamivalleypitcrew.com. We do not adopt to individuals under the age of 25. DO NOT: USE THE PETFINDER CONTACT/ADOPT BUTTONS--we are unable to monitor those and you will not receive a response.
