Story
JellyBean is quiet, courageous, and learning that the world isn't so scary after all. In fact, she recently showed us that she even knows sit, down, AND roll over! She is a gentle, reserved girl who may take a moment to feel comfortable-but underneath that softness is a dog who wants connection. The kennel environment has been tough for her, and it's made her harder to see for who she really is. Outside of that space, JellyBean shows curiosity, intelligence, and a growing confidence that's incredibly rewarding to witness! She's smart, knows her basic commands, and responds beautifully to calm encouragement (and snacks-those help). JellyBean isn't hiding from the world; she's learning how to trust it. With a patient, loving person by her side, she has all the potential to truly shine. Come see her tricks in person! ✨ At a glance ✨ • 🤍 Gentle, shy, and sensitive • 🧠 Knows basic commands • 🍪 Food-motivated & eager to learn • 🫶 Wants connection and reassurance • 🏡 Would thrive in a calm, supportive home •. 🧒Loves hanging out with older kids! •. 🤹‍♂️This girl even knows roll over Primary Color: Buff Secondary Color: Tan Weight: 38.375 Age: 3yrs 0mths 0wks

Story
Meet Henrietta, a female American Pitt Bull Terrier, currently weighs 49 lbs. With estimated Date of Birth 11/05/2019. She is house broken, enjoys play time and requires a secured fenced yard for running and exercise. Henrietta adores people and does well with teenagers and adult, she especially likes cuddling. She is not fond of sharing her time, love and food with other pets, and therefore must be the only fur-child in the family. She loves her special person so much that she wants all the attention and love to herself. Henrietta was found as a stray, therefore is looking for a home who understands that at some point she didn`t have anything, so finds it hard to share her toys and food. In a home as the only pet you will find she`s a fantastic and loving companion. Henrietta will become your best friend and will give you years of loving companionship.
