Story
Here is what her foster has to say! “ Hi, I’m Penelope! I’m a beautiful Pitbull Terrier with a big heart, an even bigger personality—and I’m happy to say I’m now super healthy and heartworm‑free! I’ve got plenty of energy for walks, playtime, and fun, but I also know how to relax and enjoy quality time with my people. I’m fully potty trained and very food‑motivated, which makes me eager to learn and respond well to training. I should admit, though, that I can be a little sneaky—if food is left on the counter, I might think it’s a snack just for me, and I do enjoy checking out low garbage cans—I love a good treasure hunt! But with a little supervision and structure, I do just fine. Being crate trained helps keep me safe and out of trouble when I’m home alone—but it’s my safe space too. One of my favorite things in the world is cuddling. I love being petted, snuggling, and soaking up all the affection I can get—especially belly rubs! I get along with other dogs, but cats aren’t really my thing. Hard pass. But if you’re looking for a sweet, affectionate, fun‑loving companion who will keep you smiling and give you endless love, I might just be your perfect match. I can’t wait to find my forever home where I’ll be safe, loved, and spoiled like I deserve. Will you be my person? 💕 Love, Penelope”

Story
To know Trevor is to love Trevor ♥️ With his interesting merle coat, cute little crumpled ears, dreamy leash behavior, and loving personality, Trevor is hard to resist once he's been given the chance to charm you. Trevor started out as a city dog and ended up at CACC in October 2025 when his owner wasn't able to care for him anymore, but he was definitely loved in his prior home. Border Tails took him in that following December and he was adopted once but it wasn't the right fit for him. He has spent the last few weeks in a foster home with a single adult and resident cat and has settled in wonderfully. His foster mom says he is the easiest and sweetest dog she's fostered so far. He is still searching for his forever home and is definitely the perfect dog for the right family! Some highlights from life in his foster home – ✅ Super affectionate - cuddly without being overly clingy, a sweet shadow by your side ready to be your steady companion. He will put his head on your chest when you join him at his level ✅ Loves slower-paced, sniffy walks and gives gentle vibes when seeing other dogs - he’s a loose leash pro! ✅ Treat-motivated – CACC nicknamed him a “hungry hippo” Trevor’s love of snack makes short training sessions easy and effective - he’s a quick learner. ✅ Zero accidents in his foster home – he is crate-trained, but can be trusted in his foster room when left out of the crate during the work day. ✅ Rides perfectly in the car – he usually ends up snoring in the backseat. ✅ Super friendly when he met his foster’s nephews (ages 10+) and gave off kind energy when he met his foster’s neighbors through the fence (a couple and two kids aged 5 and 6) ✅ Respectful of the resident cat and listens well to "leave it" when he gets a little excited -his cat manners need a little work but he is showing good progress already! ✅ Enjoys short fetch and/or catch play sessions and spiky squeak balls are his favorite. After a short romp, he spends time relaxing nearby. Trevor’s ideal home would be a calm environment with regular sniffy walks, lots of treats,and interactive play time. From there, he will reward you with good boy vibes and lots of snuggles!

Story
I have had the pleasure of fostering sweet “Lisa”aka now Dakota for the last month. This beautiful 2 1/2 year old Terrier-Pitbull is 50lbs of pure love & fun. She is great with people & other dogs. There isn’t a toy that she doesn’t want to play with.She keeps herself very busy.Sits at command & working with giving a paw. No problem at night when I crate her. Usually after a short trip for her last outside visit…she is in bed by 9:30-10:00 & up & ready to go by 6-6:30 a.m. Almost completely housebroken…a accident here & there. Loves to eat…watch out for your shoes!! Dakota loves her walks & is wonderful on a leash. She is an amazing dog & in time will be perfection!
