Big Mac

American Pit Bull Terrier

Male, 4 yrs 2 mos
Torrance, CA
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Meet Big Mac! Part pit bull, part linebacker, part oversized teddy bear. This big hunk of love is basically the canine version of ordering the supersize meal extra everything. He thinks he’s a lap dog (spoiler: he’s not), has a smile wider than Clayton Kershaw’s windup, and believes belly rubs should be an Olympic sport (he’d medal). Big Mac is 4 years old and spent over a year in the shelter even though he is the most perfect boy! He can’t quite figure out why no one scooped him up sooner, but we’re pretty sure it’s because he was saving himself for you. If you’ve got a couch and a sense of humor, Big Mac is ready to be your number one draft pick! Questions can be emailed to Danelle@roversretreat.org Big Mac's Adoption fee is $600 adoption application can be found roversretreat.org

Meet Jane! She came into rescue after being at risk of euthanasia at the shelter. When she first arrived, she was shut down and scared  but once she felt safe, she truly blossomed. Jane is a sweet approximately 4 year old pit mix who loves walks, playtime with other dogs, and just being part of the fun with her people. She’s come such a long way and continues to show more of her affectionate, gentle personality every day. Jane would do best in a patient home that lets her keep growing at her own pace. She does well with other dogs but would be equally happy as an only dog soaking up love and attention.

Story
Meet Our Sweet Warrior – AZALEA! 🌸🐾 Azalea’s story is nothing short of a miracle. She was dumped at a shelter and scheduled to be euthanized when we stepped in at the very last minute. At first, we thought she only needed cherry eye surgery—but when her condition took a turn, we rushed her to the emergency vet, where she was diagnosed with megaesophagus. ✨ What does that mean? Megaesophagus is a condition where the esophagus (the tube that moves food from the mouth to the stomach) doesn’t work properly, making it hard for food and water to move down. With the right care, medication, and by sitting in her special Bailey chair for meals, Azalea is thriving! 💖 About Azalea: 5 months old Sweet, gentle, and full of love Fantastic with other dogs, cats, and kids House-trained & crate-trained Loves cuddles and attention Sits patiently in her Bailey chair like the little angel she is Azalea may have special needs, but she doesn’t know any different—and it certainly doesn’t stop her from being one of the most loving, happy puppies you’ll ever meet. We are searching for a forever home that understands her needs and will give her the chance to live the beautiful life she deserves. Trust us—when you meet her, you will absolutely fall in love. 💕 👉 To adopt Azalea, please visit www.bulliesandbuddies.com and fill out an adoption application. ⚠️ Please note: we do not adopt out of state.

Meet Arthur aka Artie! Hi friends, I’m Artie, and I’m on the hunt for my forever home! My story hasn’t been the easiest—I was dumped on the streets to fend for myself, and when no one came to claim me at the pound, I ended up on that scary list.
