Story
Hello everyone! My name is Rocky and I am a 4 year old American Pitbull Terrier. I am a very affectionate boy who also is very protective of my family. I have TONS of energy and would fare better with an active family that has a yard for me to play/explore. I don’t do well with other dogs being that I have been attacked twice…so needless to say I’m leery of other dogs. I am afraid of thunder and prefer to sleep under my blanket and in a quiet place during thunderstorms. I need help with leash manners as I tend to pull to get to what I want. (Yes…I’m physically strong, headstrong and stubborn). I have no food aggression and love to cuddle with my people. Anything else? Just ask mom and she will let you know ❤️

Story
Dog Name: Snatch  Breed: mixed breed    Sex: Male   Age: 2.5 yrs    Weight: 55 pounds    Medical Needs: None   Housebroken: If you take him out when he comes out of his crate and after he eats. He does great.    Crate trained: Yes   Good in the car: yes   Good on a leash: yes , he doesn't pull but he tries to chase the outside kitties to play   Energy level: low to Medium He has spurts of energy then needs to recharge   Dog Friendly: Yes    If yes, does your foster need another dog in its adoptive homes? No   Cat Friendly:No   Kid Friendly: yes   If yes, what's the youngest child you'd recommend ?   10+ and dog-savvy; Snatch doesn’t do well with wrestling or loud commotion and gets overstimulated easily. He will also guard his toys, and thinks all toys are *his* toys   Special traits that make your foster special or that we need to know about them: Special traits:   He loves attention! We are working on manners because he does jump to get your attention. He occasionally gets possessive over toys and will need an owner that understands that bully breeds are stubborn and need an authoritative owner.    That being said, once he knows who’s boss (and it isn’t him…), he’s very lovable and stays close by. If you’re looking for a lovable bundle of joy come meet Snatch (he will snatch your heart)   Fosters Location: Dover, DE   Application can be found here: https://www.grrde.org/adoption-application (if you already have an approved application on file, email GrassRootsDE@gmail.com and ask the app team to pull your app) ##2510516##

Story
Albus is loving and affection. He is very playful indoors, and loves to investigate new scents outdoors. Albus will do well in most homes with a loving and supportive owner. Unfortunately, now that I work 12-hour days, I don't have the time to provide Albus the love and support he needs. Thank you for your consideration.
