Leo is 2 years and 11 months. He is very playful and friendly. Loves going on walks. As soon as you grab his walking leash, he hears that chain and goes running to the front door. Leo is housebroken and crate trained. He is used to being around children. He has no behavior issues. Leo knows how to play by himself and sit in the living room while I watch TV. He has been bordered at PetSuites while I went on vacation with out any problems.

Story
Caine is a 60lbs 7 year old bully/pit. His birthday is 2017-01-19. His dad is a black pit bull with a white chest and his mom is an all gray/blue coat white chested long legged American bully. Caine loves attention and likes to be right next to you. He would love someone to wrestle with when he is not napping and someone to cuddle with when he is not wrestling. Caine knows right from wrong and listens to a firm voice. He knows how to sit, shake and lay down. Caine is house trained and will let you know when he needs to use the bathroom. When he wants attention he will be in your face and nudge you with his head (spoiled from lots of kisses). He loves going for car rides to the park and just running errands with you. Caine has been around 4-7 year old children in the past with no issues and gets along with other dog lovers.

Story
Bruce is a very sweet dog! He loves people so much, even little kids and babies. He can be very lazy but enjoys running around at a dog park on a sunny day. He gets along well with other dogs of any size, however, we are unsure of his personality around cats and other animals. He enjoys chilling on the couch and watching tv with you. He doesn’t have any concerning behaviors. We hope you love Bruce as much as we do!

Story
"Cause I told you once, now I told you twice, we gon' light it up like it's dynamite!" Meet our shining star Dynamite! This 80# hunk 'o love is looking for his forever home! Dynamite is the closest thing you can get to owning a baby hippo, I mean look at that face! Dynamite is a total people pleaser and wants nothing more than to snuggle beside you and binge watch tv. His favorite show right now? Love is Blind (its his guilty pleasure!) He likes the show because it shows that looks don't matter its what's on the inside that counts. Dynamite's breed can unfortunately bring a lot of negative attention. Dynamite thinks every dog deserves the best home. No matter how they look! So if you are on the fence about bully breeds, let Dynamite show you how sweet, and loving these baby hippos can be! Come meet this sweet boy today!

Story
Even though Odie was abandoned by his previous family, he still loves people.  He gets along with other dogs and children.  He is high energy and hasn't learned to meet other dogs.  He can be a bit intimidating to other dogs.  His foster brother is a small 13 yr old rat terrier and Odie loves to sleep with him.  It takes a slow introduction for him to settle down.   If you want a hiking or camping buddy, Odie is your guy.  Playing fetch and tug are also favorite things that he likes.  He would love a family who would treat him like a family member.  .  He has already had his dental and is ready to start his new life as a family member.  If you are interested, please contact Rainbow Rescue at 757-472-1583 or rainbowanimalrescueva@gmail.comApril 25, 2024, 2:30 pm

Story
This is our sweet precious Lucy. Lucy had an owner but her owner used to turn her out every day to wander the streets. A friend of the rescue would pick her up when she saw her and bring her home. She feared that Lucy would get hit by a car so one day when she returned her home, she asked the owners if they would surrender her to a rescue. They agreed and Lucy arrived here happy as a clam. She's a big girl, not fat, just a big girl. She's a very gentle big girl, sleeps in my bed with all the little ones sleeping on top of her! She loves children and cats. She was heart worm positive when she arrived but we have cleared all of that up. Lucy maybe a little older at 8 years but she has the energy of a puppy. She loves to play all day with the rest of the shelter dogs. She is spayed, fully vaccinated and house broken. She needs her forever home, could that be you? PLEASE NOTE THAT WE ARE LOCATED IN TENNESSEE AND YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO MEET OUR PETS PRIOR TO ADOPTION! ADOPTION FEE $350

These pups are in Newport News, Virginia too!
