Story
Becky is a 1 year 7 month old black and white sweet American pit bull terrier mix who has recently been taken from a shelter by PAW and is in need of a foster or better yet a forever home..   She is a snuggle bug who is happy to sleep with her person on the sofa and loves everyone she's met. She's great in the crate, which she also goes into voluntarily to "chill".   She appears to be housetrained.  Becky was interested in the cats in her prior foster's house but has not shown any reaction so far.  She can be dog selective and would likely do best with a slow introduction with a low-key male doggy friend or as an only dog.  Wouldn't you like to meet this cute girl? PAW places animals in the Washington, DC/Baltimore metropolitan area only. ##1992194##

Story
My name is Buko (coconut in Tagalog) and I am a 3 year old spayed female pit/frenchie mix. My legs are too short for my body, but I’m really good at snuggling. I love people, but hate the cold. I am food motivated and know basic obedience, but I will steal your shoe for a cuddle. Up to date on all my shots and I’m chipped. It’s better if I’m the only animal in the house because I get aggressive around new dogs.

This four-legged dynamo is here to add a dash of joy and laughter to your life. Grim is a connoisseur of zoomies, and his playful antics are bound to keep you entertained for hours on end. One of Grim's favorite pastimes is indulging in belly rubs, and boy, does he know how to enjoy them! When he's in belly rub heaven, he lets out adorable snorts reminiscent of a little piggy, adding an extra dose of charm to his already endearing personality.While Grim is a true social butterfly with humans, he has developed a bit of a grumpy disposition around other dogs. As a result, he would thrive as the sole pet in your home, soaking up all the attention and affection you have to offer. Grim's energy is contagious, and he would love a home with a fenced yard where he can unleash his boundless enthusiasm, running and playing to his heart's content. A couple of walks a day would not only contribute to his physical well-being but also provide the perfect opportunity for him to learn proper leash etiquette. Once you lay eyes on Grim's crazy antics and handsome charm, be prepared to fall head over heels in love. This one-of-a-kind pup is ready to become your loyal companion, bringing laughter, love, and joy into your home. Don't miss out on the chance to make Grim a cherished member of your family!

Story
I took in this big gentle giant when no one had the means to care for him. Sky is a approximately 12, is very healthy and calm, but still lively. He wants to cuddle and likes comfy blankets and stuffed animals. He never growls or shows any aggression and listens well. Please look at my profile because I posted my other dog Bo who gets along great with Sky if you're in the market for two dogs.
