Story
They call me Exuberant, Handsome and Sweet but you can choose a new name for me when we adopt each other. I don’t care what you call me, as long as you call me. I’m a happy dog who loves people more than anything else in the world. I’m a 6 year old mix, with a 22” collar and am very big and strong. The Vet said I weigh 73 pounds. Don’t let that scare you because I am just a mushy ball of love. I like to let everyone know how happy I am to see them by twirling around and wagging my tail as fast as it will go. This is usually when they call me Exuberant. I like to have fun. I’m such a good boy and I have good potty manners. I prefer being inside with people at night especially. Since I have a lot of energy and need exercise, your large fenced yard will be well-used. My foster peeps say I need a family, not a job. They know that I’m a quick learner and will be someone’s best dog ever. Because I’m big and young at heart, my new humans should have some experience with dogs and be able to work with someone of my stature. I promise I will try to do everything you ask enthusiastically. I don’t like loud booming noises (fireworks or dynamite) or gunfire but neither do most of my friends. Health wise, I am terrific; up to date on shots and tested negative for heartworms. Foster peeps say it means I will get my forever home very soon! Maybe it’s yours! FOCCAS is a foster based, non-profit rescue in Crossville, TN. The adoption fee Includes Age-Appropriate Vaccinations (DA2PPV, Bordetella, Rabies), Deworming, Spay/Neuter, Microchip, Flea/Tick/Heartworm Prevention, and Sheltering. Adult Dogs are Heartworm Tested and Treated as Needed. FOCCAS does not DNA test or guarantee breed. My adoption fee (if picked up locally in Crossville, Tennessee) is $225. If transport is needed, my adoption fee is $525 (out of state, East Coast, Great Lakes or New England regions). Thank You for Your Interest in Adopting a Canine Companion from Foccas-tn.org!

Story
Dorothea came to us as an owner request to euthanize with 12 other dogs. While we do not know exactly what happened in her past life, she’s blossomed into a pup who enjoys life playing with toys, the resident dogs in her foster home, and the couch for snuggles of all kinds. Thea is a sweet energetic brown and white puppy and is around 1.5 years old. She’s tall and lean with big adorable ears. Dorothea will make a great addition to any family with another dog. She thrives with other confident, non territorial, dog friendly dogs. The slower you move with her the faster you will see her blossom into trusting her new surroundings. Dorothea trusts kids easily as they’re close to her level. She likes them to be playmates and need positive reinforced guidance on how to be a good kid playmate. Dorothea would thrive best in a home with another dog friend to help build trust and manners with her new family. She is incredibly submissive and playful with dogs ranging in ages from 1.5-9 years old. Dorothea loves having a toddler around for face level kisses and all the snacks. She’s continuing to work on her manners. She has a high energy level and loves outside- rain, sun, or snow. She lives to: chase her foster siblings in the yard, for toys, and tug. A family that likes to be outside, and/or has a quiet fenced in yard is a must for her. She also needs a family that has a consistent dependable schedule as she thrives in reliable schedules. Dorothea loves her crate and is doing great with potty training. She is a playful silly goose who just wants to be friends with all the dogs and humans she meets. What else could you ask for?

Story
If you don't see a dog currently with Players for Pits that interests you, please consider fostering. There are over 300 amazing dogs at Chicago Animal Care and Control (the shelter most our adoptable dogs come from) and we can match you with a good fit. The rescue covers the cost of all vetting and supplies needed for fostering and we will connect you with a support system of team members/volunteers from our rescue so you are not alone in the process. Fostering saves lives! When you decide to foster, you are temporarily opening your home up to a dog in need who may otherwise have been euthanized. We have many teirs of fosters. The first is "revolving fosters" meaning they take on one or two dogs at a time and when that dog or dog(s) get adopted, they get ready for a new foster to keep to cycle of saving lives going! Another large part of our rescue is Vacation Fosters who do short term fostering. To foster for us, we currently require you be within an hour of Roselle, Illinois where our main vet is located. But if you live out of state or too far, there will be a rescue local to you that could use your help! To register to foster with us, please start by doing a "Foster Sign Up" linked below. This will give us a brief summary of who you are without wasting your time in case you are too far or may be a better fit for another rescue. To sign up, visit https://www.playersforpits.com/foster or contact info@playersforpits.com for more information.

Story
Meet Squeak: Your Future Best Friend Squeak is a 1-year-old pit mix with a striking red/chestnut/orange coat, stunning hazel eyes, and legs that go on for days! This handsome boy is full of energy, love, and potential. He was found as a stray back in March 2024, covered in cuts and scars on his right side. Although we don’t know what caused the injuries, they’ve healed beautifully, and Squeak is now ready to move forward with a fresh start. When Squeak was first rescued, he was understandably scared, but over time, he has blossomed into a playful, affectionate companion. He still has a bit of a “stranger danger” side, so slow introductions to new people are essential. But once he knows you, Squeak will shower you with love, excitement, and loyalty. He loves his people and enjoys being by your side, whether it's helping out in the yard, playing with his dog friends, or simply cuddling at the end of the day. Speaking of his dog friends, Squeak has a great time playing and socializing with other dogs. He thrives in playgroups, getting along with most dogs and matching their energy level—so if you have a playful, energetic dog, Squeak would be the perfect fit! He knows to respect dogs that prefer their space, and he’s not shy about being a cuddly, napping companion when the playtime winds down. He is best suited for a household with a dog that can keep up with his energy and a stable routine, as he can get easily excited and a bit jumpy at times. Although Squeak’s high-energy personality might not make him the best fit for families with young kids or chaotic households, older kids who can handle his enthusiastic nature would likely enjoy his playful antics. Squeak loves to be active, running around, chasing balls, and finding sticks to carry around. He’s also a fan of bones and will happily chew on one while you go about your day. After a fun day of adventures, Squeak will curl up beside you and give you all the cuddles you need. Squeak is working on his basic commands and crate training, and he's doing exceptionally well! He’s learned that going into his crate means a treat, and he’s starting to show good self-control, especially when it comes to waiting for high-value treats. He’s a smart boy and would thrive in an environment where he can continue to learn and grow, particularly with activities like agility training. He’s an eager student who loves bonding with his people, and if you’re looking for a buddy to spend your days with, Squeak is your guy! Three words to describe Squeak? Happy, active, and lover of sticks! Looking for a playful cuddle bug to complete your home? Fill out an application here: https://www.playersforpits.com/adoption-survey.

Story
Atticus is a handsome hunk/chunk of a pit bull with a big head and an even bigger heart. Atticus made his way to PFP after a serious injury that could have meant his end. He powered through and lived to be the sweet soul he is now. Atticus loves everyone he meets. He sits nicely for pets and head rubs. He takes treats so gently! Atticus’s dream day is a short walk, a snooze, a snack, a snack, a snack, and a some snuggles on the couch. He would do best with a family that is looking to relax and snuggle. Atticus is a sweet and laid back guy. He's not really here to do lots of tricks, unless you count napping as a trick, but he sometimes will respond to “give me paw”. This is the kind of dog that has been through so much and yet wants all of the love. He loves head rubs (especially on his scars) and snuggles. The best kind of family for him is one that will let him snuggle and chew on a good bone. The family should also have a sizable paper towel collection because he shows his love with drool! Atticus naps through nail trims. He also LOVES baths. Three words to describe Atticus? Doofus, sweetie, and SURVIVOR! Looking for a chunky cuddle bug to complete your home?
