German Pit Bull puppies and dogs in Bellingham, Washington

If you are ready to have a companion that gets so excited when you walk in the door that she simply can’t stand it, you just have to meet Tootsie. When her people get home, she instantly turns into the happiest wiggle monster. She has such a big heart and that is our favorite thing about her! She makes everyone feel so special with her ecstatic welcome! Her color, her fur, the way she plays… she simply is The Happiest-Hippo. Take a look at her in action, mid-way through this video you will get to see her get a burst of the cutest zoomies! https://youtu.be/yW3WylrDW-U?si=BzmPhHcCT9neDh_9 I like to call her Toots, like “how you doin’ Toots?” She’s a dame, it feels respectful somehow and because we estimate her to be about 7 years old, she deserves the respect. She is likely a pittie/staffie mix of some sort but the truth is, both her age and breed are not something we can guarantee given she is a rescue. If she could, I am positive she would tell you she isn’t a day older than 3, followed by a perfect wink. Tootsie weighs 71 lbs, fully-grown so she is a large dog, a favorite for the best snuggles. What I love about her is that she has mature dog presence with the get-up-and-go of a 2 year old dog. It doesn’t take much for her to be ready to lay around either, so if you are looking for a house dog more than a fitness buddy, this is your girl! When it comes to going on adventures or outings, all you gotta do is say the word, grab the leash, and Toots is at the door with her social butterfly adventure cap on. She also loves to go on car rides and has earned the distinguished title of "perfect passenger princess." Toots likes riding with her head out the window for maximum sniffing and feeling that fresh air hit her cute squishy face. She really loves going on leisurely walks at the park and enjoys every second of it. She's never in a rush to get back home or go to the next place. She does great walking past kids, joggers, other dogs, and even the splash pad with all the action going on there with ease. Toots treats her walks like she's on her own personal sniffari LOL. She loves getting compliments from all of the from people at the park, soaking up all of the attention of course. Need to stop by your local coffee shop or even dog friendly thrift store to browse around, she's a dream even in places like that and is deemed a polite shopper. Toots also enjoys going to pet stores too and especially if you let her go where all the fish are so she can sit and watch them It's pretty cute the way she gets so mesmerized by the way the swim around. Be prepared for all of the workers to be fawning over her, giving her kisses and hugs. Oh, and treats of course. She also really likes watching the guinea pigs too! LOL she's just a curious happy hippo. After a full day (or even half day) of adventures, Toots is going to be soooo sleepy. She'll give you night night kisses, and then sprawl out in the back seat for her nap. Can you picture life with tootsie yet? Because I can— and it seems fabulous. My heart can’t take it!! Toots has a few non-negotiables she is looking for in forever home- booty scratches and treats. This is the fast-track to her heart. Offer her a treat and she will show off her perfect sit, followed by a gentle shake. Such a lady. But if you hold a treat too long after she knows she is due one you will hear her voice. She isn’t loud, just chatty, a little grumbly rumble mixed with a small bark. Truth is she uses that voice to make a connection with her people, and we love her little woowoos. When it comes to defining her ideal home, this voice of hers means she needs a house. Apartment life with its shared walls is no place for a girl like Toots. Plus, she needs a little yard for those zoomie sessions. Toots is great with kids, unbothered by the noise and bounciness of a 4 year old. She was calm, polite and gave him gentle kisses…then sneakily and so cutely, walked off with a stuffie toy he had. She loves toys as much as little kids do, and we all know littles leave a trail of toys around the house, so a home with older kids would be best for her. No trail of toys to sneak off with and no tears from a mistaken toy moment. Perfect! Tootsie is very people friendly and will pull a bit on-leash if she sees someone she loves. Other than that, this girl has some good leash manners, she’s just full of love! When introduced to a new dog on leash she was polite and indifferent. Once she realized she was meeting a new playmate it was a different story- she got her doggie greeting sniffs out of the way and immediately wanted to play. She showed off for him a bit with an amazing zoom session and then they were off to play. Her play style is what we call rough and rowdy, it is all in good fun but is a detail that is important when matching her with a doggie companion. Not all dogs enjoy that style of play and although she enjoys a round of chase, her ideal match would be a medium energy, playful male, who loves physical play and also appreciates those calmer moments as well. Toots would also be just as happy being the center of your world too and does not need another dog in the home to keep her company or help her feel comfortable to fully be her goofy loving self. She is naturally a love bug and a social butterfly. No kitties for Tootsie, she is a little too interested in them. If a mature happy-hippo of your own is what you are looking for, this is your girl! Big love and big snuggles guaranteed! Apply today! https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/673943173a4b7daee0088ba5 Questions?

Take a second to sit back & relax, meet Molly Mae! Molly went on an exciting road trip with her foster brother last year in hopes to find her forever family. Although she hasn’t found them just yet, we know they are out there somewhere! On her trip, Molly traveled over 3,600 miles in a car. Woah!! Not only is she totally interesting and ready to share all of her world traveling stories with you, but she’s most of all looking for love. The first thing you will notice about this girl is how intelligent she is. Molly is also nothing short of an impressive performance dog with her sit, down, and touch skills. She also has amazing recall, and has mastered “heel” and “leave it” when she passes by other dogs on her daily walks. She loves being brushed too. One of our volunteers loves her so much, he comes multiple times a week to sit with her and brush her. She sits perfectly for him for 45 minutes straight, never leaving his side even when new doggies walk by. It melted my heart, and it surely will melt yours too. Molly is a big fan of her daily routine, and she hopes you will help her create a new one in her new home. The girl knows what she likes! Molly also loves a good game of fetch— she will bring the ball back and drop it! Calling all shepherd lovers, because this girls personality will need someone familiar with this breed! Is that you? Meet Molly girl here! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=yR7D5PYFxhU&feature=youtu.be Molly has so many good qualities to her. She is great in her crate, and best of all she is quiet in there too! She is calm and relaxed when you take her out. When you want her to go back in she just walks right in! She is very food motivated and loves a good treat (don’t we all!). She even let a 4 year old train her! She sat for him, and waited patiently for him to share some of his yummy cheese stick. Molly is not the jumping around ball of energy type, she is respectful of her surroundings and the people in it! Little tiny kids can be a little overwhelming with all of the bouncing and kid friendly chaos, so we believe Molly would do better with kids 7 years and up. Or children that will be able to understand her boundaries. Family coming over to visit with younger kids should not be a problem for her, this is just something she prefers! Mollys interest in treats would make for a super fun training session! Molly is the perfect example of a dog that is just happy to be with you, no matter where you are. Molly really likes to bond with her people. She is so loyal and loving, when her forever family comes to get her I have no doubt it will be the happiest day of her life! She would be happy to stay home and put around the backyard too! Speaking of homes and yards, this girl needs one! Having a structured area for her to play and mosey around in would be her dream. Molly does not need another dog in the home, but if she were to have one she prefers to be with more submissive, medium energy males that will participate in her similar play style. Molly can be a little rowdy with her best friend sometimes, but it’s all fun and games. Molly would be perfectly content being your one and only too! No kitty cats for this queen, they are just way too fun to chase and bark at. Her ideal family would be those that love some good quality time. We could totally see her hanging out at the backyard barbecue hoping you’ll slip her a little something under the table. When this girl falls for you, she falls hard. If only we could all be so lucky to have a best friend like her. Are you ready to add the perfect loyal companion to your life? Apply for her today! https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/680a6339fe589ad4230a2f7b Questions?

Zelda is such a cutie girl! Yes, she really does look like she has on a little tuxedo, or maybe some little white socks! This girl is so sweet and friendly. She loves all people, she did well with a cat, and she enjoyed playing ball in the yard with other pups. Ball is her FAVORITE game! She loves to play fetch, but she’s still learning how to bring it back to you. She carries the ball around like a little baby with a pacifier— it’s just too cute to handle! Are you ready to meet your new partner in crime? Watch her here: https://youtu.be/1sj9S5ohoQU?si=VvB8F0YViLZp-hVA Zelda is still living her best care free puppy life, and will need a family with time to teach her new tricks! Right now in her foster home with her sister, she is currently working on her basic commands. Zelda is already so smart, we know that training will be fun for her (and you!) Zelda comes from a part of the U.S. where puppies are regularly euthanized, so adopting this puppy will help us save another in her place. Zelda is a little slow to open up to doggy friends initially, but trust me, it doesnt take her very long! She will be showing you her goofy side quickly. Especially if you have a fun bouncy tennis ball! Zelda simply just doesnt like to be rushed when meeting doggies she doesnt know, and we cant blame her! You can tell that she wanted to play with the other dogs, but she just wasnt sure how to yet. One thing about Zelda is that she loves toys! Sometimes we'll even catch her stealing a toy from other dogs. If Zelda is to be adopted out with other dogs, it would be best for her to be adopted out with another dog that doesn't really care much for toys-- and for toy time to be supervised so everyone can enjoy the toys. We think Zelda would definitely benefit from having a doggy sibling in the home to help her build some confidence. Zelda got to meet a kitty here at the rescue, and she did wondefully! She didnt really care for him at all, and if you have kitties at home, you know thats what we want! Although we have not seen Zelda with kids yet, with her size and calm energy, we think Zelda would enjoy the company of older kids. We are happy to test her with anything you may need.
