Story
Meet Pepper, a senior pup that`s here to prove that age is just a number! Pepper loves romping around in the yard and going on sniffy walks out in the world (she lived with her sister Kuva in the previous home, and they were frequent walk buddies together!) She doesn`t have a lot of practice making new dog friends, so would appreciate a lower-traffic home and slower introductions with dogs, especially while she`s settling in. Once she`s warmed up to her new human friends, Pepper is sure to shower you with love and show off her silly side!

Story
Meet Indigo, a sweet, slightly shy senior pittie who enjoys naps, calm companionship, and being close to her people. She`s an easygoing, affectionate dog who would do best in a quiet, low-key home. Indigo has a few manageable medical needs and will need a future knee surgery, but she`s otherwise a gentle, content companion. She could live with a respectful dog who understands her shy tendencies, would do best in a cat-free home, and looking for humans who can practice calm, considerate interactions. If you`re searching for a relaxed, loving dog who`s happy to take life at a slower pace, Indigo may be the perfect fit.

Meet Kuva, a sweet and dainty pittie who is looking for a new home! This lovely senior pup lived with her sister Pepper in the previous home, and can be a little worried with big changes like meeting new people or dogs, so she`s love to go to a lower-traffic home. Once Kuva settles in, her personality starts to shine - she loves sniffy walks and rolling around in the leaves! Kuva loves to snuggle with the people in her inner circle, and she’s playful and silly once she’s comfortable.

Story
Isla (formerly known as "Snow") is a 3 y.o., female, gorgeous Albino deaf Pitbull Terrier looking for a forever home. She's very energetic, loves people and the outdoors. She loves toys, chasing leaves, shadows and anything that moves, cuddling, treats, and belly rubs. Isla needs a patient owner that understands her need to be the only pet in the home with no small children. While she is not aggressive toward humans, if scared, she will hide in her crate and can be reactive if someone tries to reach inside of the crate to force her out. Because she is deaf, she can become overstimulated and need to use her crate as her safe space and will go there on her own when needed. Isla is crate trained and will happily sleep either in bed with her humans (warning - she is a bed hog and she wants her head on your pillow!) or in her crate (covered by a blanket). Isla is trained to respond to the vibration on her e-collar to "come" and is working on the "stay" command using hand signals. She knows how to sit and lay and the "no" command (again, hand signs). She is not a destructive dog and will not chew on furniture, etc. While she loves to play with other dogs, she does resource guard and does not pick up on social cues, which frustrates other animals and makes them anxious, and has resulted in physical aggression from other dogs toward Isla and vice versa that is significant and creates an unsafe environment for her and other animals. She is fully potty trained. She has not yet mastered walking nicely on a leash, though she has had a few lessons with a trainer, she does tend to pull due to her high energy nature and visual distractibility. Isla is a love - if you enjoy a funny, playful pup that loves to snuggle and are looking to devote all of your love to one pet - she will be that dog that is by your side 24/7! Thank you for choosing rescue. PLEASE DO NOT CONTACT US BY EMAIL OR PHONE TO TELL US YOU ARE INTERESTED IN ISLA. We are all volunteers and we cannot move forward without your application. If you would like to be considered to adopt her go to our website and fill out an application. www.sunnypawsrescue.org. Be sure you receive a confirmation email after submission and someone will be in touch promptly.

Story
Roscoe is a sweet and cuddly boy looking for his forever home. He is a social butterfly and will want to hang out with all dogs he meets. When he arrives to a new home, he will need a few hours to decompress but after that, he will quickly show his outgoing personality. In his videos, you can see that he likes to play with other pups in a balanced well and he respects other dogs' boundaries. He especially loves to hang out with females but. Inside the house, he tends to act calm and likes to sleep with his foster parents whenever he is allowed to. Just like every furry child, he is scared of thunder but will feel safe if he is accompanied by his dog friends and his humans. We don't know how he behaves with kittens but he can be cat-tested if requested. Roscoe is crate, potty and leash-trained. Rescue story: Roscoe was found roaming around in an isolated area on the outskirts of East Houston. His foster mom spotted him and opened the door of her car for him. Roscoe was quick to jump inside and this is how he finally became a house dog again. On his first veterinary visit, the doctor identified a hip fracture, possibly caused by a car. After going over his x-rays, the veterinarian said that the fracture didn't need repair surgery since it was "self-healing." After a couple of months in foster, he started walking better (when he arrived, his hip was a little wobbly) and now, he walks and runs without any issues.  This dog is up to date on vaccinations and is neutered. (Please note: Puppies under 3 months old may not be sterilized prior to adoption. If this is the case, your adoption coordinator will provide guidance on the process). To adopt or learn more about this dog, you must complete an adoption application, which can be found on our website: www.sandypawsrescue.com. PLEASE READ:  •    If a dog or puppy is listed, they are currently available for adoption. However, they may already be pending an adoption, and their profile may not yet reflect this. •    All information is accurate to the best of our knowledge as of the posting date.     •    Unless explicitly stated, Sandy Paws Rescue does not guarantee the breed of any dog. Breeds listed are educated guesses made by shelter staff, volunteers, or veterinarians. Many of our dogs are mixed breeds, often with pit bull-type genetics, resulting in a wide variety of physical traits and temperaments. Our dogs come from various situations, such as kill shelters, owner surrenders, or as strays. It is likely both parents were mixed breeds as well. Sandy Paws Rescue does not have a public shelter in Massachusetts. Our dogs reside in private foster homes or boarding kennels in the South until adopted. Many dogs are spoken for prior to transport or release from state-mandated isolation. For information on adoption fees, procedures, or FAQs, visit our website: www.sandypawsrescue.com. The FIRST step in adopting from Sandy Paws Rescue is to submit a completed adoption application. ##2429903##
