Story
Juicy Lucy Spayed Female 5 years old 50lbs HW+ We don’t bring many pitties into our program, but when we do, you know they are the very *BEST* ones. Juicy Lucy was impossible to resist. This mama is kind to her core. We met her at a local animal where she just spent her days free roaming around the shelter greeting all the newcomers and making friends with everyone. She’s outstanding with dogs of every age and size (when we met her two puppies and a crabby old man dog were bossing her around the play yard), cats, people, the works. She’s wiggly and happy, but also very mellow and chill. She’s quiet, affectionate, well-mannered, and just a special girl. One of the animal control officers mentioned most pits don’t make it out of their shelter alive, but they had been holding this girl for more than a month because she’s truly that special. She’s obviously been overbred, is being treated for heartworms, and has scars on her body - but she wants nothing but to give love and receive love in return. Someone is going to be VERY lucky to have Juicy as a new member of their family.

Story
Hank is a fun, sweet, loving, and playful two-year-old, 55-pound male pit bull terrier-mix with hazel eyes looking for a loving guardian. Hank’s human recently passed away and he’s looking for a new family. He loves going for walks, jogs, playing ball, and loves to learn! He’s great on leashed walks and is not reactive at all, and he’s great in the car! He knows the commands sit and paw and is ready for more training! He is housebroken, crate-trained and well behaved in the home. While he usually gets along with dogs outside the home, he’s best as the only dog in the home because he can get jealous, and due to his prey drive, no cats. Hank is healthy, neutered, microchipped, up-to-date on rabies, distemper, leptospirosis and bordetella vaccines, heartworm and lyme-tested negative, microchipped, and de-wormed. He eats a special prescription diet due to allergies. His adoption fee of $150 benefits the rescued pets of Friends of Petraits Rescue. To meet and possibly adopt Hank, fill out the application at https://friendsofpetraits.com/dog-adoption-application/ Once you’ve completed the application, follow up at friendsofpetraits@gmail.com to meet him. He is being fostered in Chicago.
