Story
Maddox has been here for 3 months with no interest 😔We get it. He's a big scary pit bull....except not really....okay, fine, he's big and he's a pit bull but he's not scary. At least, not once you've seen him rolling around in snow or scratching his back on gravel or basically being the silliest of geese.Maddox is 7yo and he weighs about 72lbs. He's a big boy and, like most big boys go, he's a tender-hearted, sweet summer child, sensitive soul. His face ALWAYS looks like he got caught doing something he absolutely should not be doing even though he's never done a single thing wrong in his life...ever.A shy boy at first, once Maddox is pretty confident that you aren't going to eat him, he's content to just plop next to wherever you are and hang out. That's not to say that he doesn't get the zoomies because he definitely does (don't let his age fool you). He has some decent training under his belt and knows his basics (sit, stay, come, down, etc) and knows his name...and actually responds to it. We've been working with him on his leash manners and he's been picking up on it really quickly so he's less pully and more inclined to just stick by your side and let you take the lead (unless he really has to pee...which, you know, fair enough.)We're looking for an adult only home where Maddox can be the only animal. He isn't bad with other dogs but he doesn't really know how to act around them and he's...well, he's socially awkward. No aggression, just "mom, pick me up, I'm scared" energy. He honestly could be okay with the right female dog that will just mind her business and do her own thing and let him do his own thing. He's OBNOXIOUS when it comes to cats as in he has zero boundaries and he's "toddler that just discovered the word 'why'" levels of curious when it comes to them so...no cats, for their sake.Since he's a "restricted breed", you must own your own home or live in a home owned by a family member.To apply, visit foreverpaws.com and click adopt to download our application.

Story
Meet Bam!Bam is just as ridiculous as his ears are and just as ridiculous as his name would suggest. But seriously, look at those ears. Like, what even are those? Bunny ears on a dog, that's what.Bam is a two year old pit bull mix. Mixed with what, we have no idea. Rabbit. Jackalope. Jerboa maybe. It's one of life's greatest mysteries. He weighs about 65lbs so he isn't ridiculously big but he is high energy so it can sometimes seem like he's 100lbs. He is the happiest, dopiest, friendliest guy and all of that energy seems to come from pure, unbridled joy and enthusiasm for, like, everything. He loves people and would spend his days sitting there and staring at you adoringly with that big goofy smile, without a single thought behind his eyes, if he could. He knows his basics (sit, come, stay...sorta, etc) and he isn't terrible on a leash but he doesn't quite realize how strong he is so he can be a bit of a heavy puller. Another thing about Bam is that he likes to hoard his toys like a dragon with gold. His favorites are tennis balls and plushies though rope toys are not exempt from being added to his hoard. He's more interested in hoarding them than he is with playing with them but he will bounce around with a tennis ball like a goober. He's also, like, super nosy. He has a major case of FOMO. He needs to know what's happening on the other side of a door at all times like he's personally responsible for feeding the local gossip mill.Bam loves other dogs but, again, he's high energy so he'll need someone that can match that ridiculousness. We would prefer to place him with a female dog because he does seem to favor them. We're looking for a home without cats because he would most likely be way too much dog for most cats. Kids 12+ because small kids are small and Bam is not small. Bam is both the unstoppable force and the immovable object.Because he is a "restricted breed", you must own your own home or live in a home owned by a family member.To apply, visit foreverpaws.com and click adopt to download our application.
