German Pit Bull puppies and dogs in Vancouver, British Columbia

Shepherd Smarts + Husky Sparkle = Sol ☀️ Hi, I’m Sol! About 2 years old and 52 lbs of sweet, cheerful, love bug. I’m the kind of girl who’s happiest when life includes fresh air, a routine, and someone I can really trust and bond with. I came from a tough start, rescued just in time from a high-kill shelter, and I’ve been doing the brave work of learning that people can be safe and life can be good. What you’ll love about me: I’m super quick to learn and I do best when you give me clear guidance. I already know sit and shake, I’m happy to hang out by myself in the house as long as there’s a comfy couch to nap on and I got my exercise. I don’t destroy anything in the house; only occasionally treats myself with any snacks you leave around 😉 I can also sleep in my crate overnight, and I’m great at telling you when I need to go outside to potty. I especially love pets and bonding time with my human! My vibe: puppy kisses + sniff walks + play time + snuggle time I’m an adventure kid at heart; hikes, exploring, sniffing trails, all of it. And if you have a playful, high-energy dog my size, it’s even better. I love playtime and would absolutely thrive with a matured dog sibling who matches my energy. I can be very enthusiastic when meeting new dogs, so we’re practicing calmer greetings on walks and I’m improving quickly with consistency. I’m cat-curious and making real progress at my foster home. Recently I stayed calm longer around resident kitties, didn’t bark until a kitty hissed first 😅, and instead of trying to chase, I followed at a slower pace. I’ll still need thoughtful slow intros and guidance, but I’m showing I can learn. My best match: I’m looking for a home with: • a confident, steady human who enjoys training, routine and needs a partner in crime! • an active lifestyle (sniff walks, hikes, enrichment) • I could be your on and only dog or have a playful husky or similar energy sibling. I have enjoyed playing with huskies and shepherd mixes I met at my foster homes. If you want a dog who brings lots of joy, cuddles, keeps you moving, and becomes deeply connected to her person, look right into your eye, I might be the one you’ve been waiting for!

We can provide a list of reputable trainers who use positive reinforcement methods to help you establish a training protocol and an everlasting bond with your newly adopted furbaby. —————————————————————————- [IMPORTANT] —————————————————————————- Below listed requirements are for any dogs we adopt out, meant for everyone’s safety. • If you have other dogs, then you must also be knowledgeable and have good hands on experience with running a multi-dog home to be able to adopt a dog from us. What’s expected of the adopter is just keeping basic house rules like (1) keep the dogs apart when feeding, monitor & put away left over food, (2) help them build mutual trust before leaving alone with treats, toys around (3) keep dogs out of kitchen when handling food etc • As with any dog, earn their trust around food handling. This is an essential training for every dog, so they learn to trust their new human. It takes only a couple of practice sessions around meal time with most dogs with no history of food guarding. Teaching to sit, then hand-feeding food & high value treats is one of the best ways to earn trust. • If you have children at home, they should be at least 8+ yrs, and know to safely & respectfully interact with dogs, to be considered for adoption. We think families with younger children will likely not have the time needed to exercise and nourish a new dog. And the time needed to train little kids to safely interact with dogs, read their body language & respect their personal space. Most dogs do not enjoy little ones clinging to them, pulling their fur, crawling or lying on them. We do not want to risk the safety of neither your child nor our dog. Follow @dogmeets_baby trainer on Instagram to learn more on this topic :-) Of course, we understand there are exceptions and some parents are on top with this. Please contact us if you are one of those exceptional parents :) • We discourage the use of choke, pinch, prong collars on our dogs. Training to walk on a well fitted no-pull harness is encouraged. All our dogs come with a “no-pull” harness. If needed for training, you can use humane collars like regular buckle collars, martingale collars or ‘gentle leader’.

Meet Potter Potter is a 7-month-old mixed breed puppy who is just beginning to experience the world around him. Potter may be a bit shy when meeting new people, but he warms up quickly and seeks comfort from trusted humans. Once he feels safe, his true personality shines. Potter is affectionate, energetic, and playful, and he genuinely enjoys being around people once he gets to know them. He loves attention and is happiest when he's close to his humans, soaking up affection and praise. Potter came to us from a situation where he wasn't exposed to a lot, so many everyday sights and sounds are still unfamiliar to him. Things like walks, cars, and loud noises can feel overwhelming at first, and he's learning how to build confidence in new environments. Training & Socialization Potter will need basic puppy training, including potty training and learning everyday manners. He will also benefit greatly from continued, positive socialization to help him become more comfortable with new sights, sounds, and experiences over time. He is making a lot of progress so far and is very food motivated and eager to learn, making him highly receptive to reward-based training. Training sessions that focus on building trust, confidence, and positive associations with the world around him will help Potter feel secure and successful. Ideal Home Potter would do best in a quiet, adult-only home with owners who can dedicate time to help him learn. He is not suited for a home with children. Potter might benefit from a confident dog in his new household but we will learn more as he meets other dogs at the shelter. A patient adopter who understands shy or under-socialized dogs and is willing to go at Potter’s pace will be rewarded with a deeply loving, affectionate, and playful companion. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ready to Apply?

*Currently fostered in Houston Texas, available for out of state adoptions via rescue transportation. Video meet and greet available prior to commitment* This dog is a collaborative effort between Moka's Mission and Houston Chow Chow Connection. Mocha is a fluffy mixed pup just eager to find her new lease in life. She was rescued from a kill shelter in Texas just moments before being euthanized. She is believed to be around 4 years old, and based on behaviors definitely has GSD, Chow Chow, and even possibly husky mixed in her as well. Current weight around 65, 70 lbs. Mocha is a smiling, eager to please, extremely intelligent pup who clearly has been desperate for reaching a potential that was never offered to her prior. She loves to play with toys now, ( was unfamiliar with on arrival) and can be quirky, and vocal during her playful bouts. A game of tug which result in some head pats is her favorite. She also is very smart, and when given attention and motivation is quick to learn. She already knows several basic commands including sit, shake, kennel, wait, settle, and leave it. She is extremely versatile and once she trusts you, will give you her best. If you want to go hiking or exercise, she is all about it. If you want a pup to relax in the home and enjoy a movie day, she is ready! She loves to curl up on the couch or at your feet when it's time to settle down, but when it's time to go she is the first one to be there and ready for you. She also loves to keep you company while you do the most menial house chore's such as laundry or dishes. Mocha clearly was kept away from other dogs and animals when she was owned previously, so we do think she'd be best as an only pup. Proper continued socialization training would be required in order for her to eventually be able to share space with other dogs, but she would need to be socialized as an only dog first before considering adding another in. She clearly has a desire to want to know other dogs and can walk by them and flirt while on leash just fine during walks. However, she hasn't had enough time and proper playmates to engage in playtime at present without being rough. Unfortunately, she is not ok with cats, which is to be expected of the breeds she possesses. Mocha is fully vetted meaning she is up to date on vaccinations, spayed, microchipped and on monthly prevention for flea, tick, and heartworm. Her adoption fee and transport is dependent on services used.
