Story
Hey everyone. My name is Samson. I am a three year old American Pitbull Terrier mix. I am a little shy at first, but I warm up quickly to those around me. I am playful, friendly, and super sweet. I love all kinds of treats, and I am pretty dog friendly. I am looking for a patient home so that I can learn to open up and trust people. I have been at the shelter for just a few short months; however, that is simply just too long in my eyes. I need a family that I can call my own. If you think I would be a good fit for your family, please come down to the shelter and ask for me by name. Once again, my name is Samson.We do offer meet and greets before you take a dog home, and we do recommend meet and greets for all dogs over the age of eight months to make sure that the dog will get along with your dog before they leave the shelter. We also offer a 'slumber party' program which allows you to take a dog home for three days before adopting to see if they are a good fit for your family. There is no cost or commitment for this - we provide the supplies, you provide the love!

Story
I got my dog in a wal mart parking lot. Shes about 9 years old. She needs a lot of space to run around and is very good at jumping fences. She hasnt jumped over 6 ft fences but a 3 foot fence she clears. she is aggressive towards animals especially ones who submit to her. Shes been getting jealous of my children and it has been hard for me to give her all the things she needs. I suggest not having her around children because she has no concept of her strength and can get jealous. Shes very loving and also loves to be chased. She also loves tug of war. She will escape and run from you to have you chase her. She is full of energy. She needs people who are able to give her a lot of excercise and play time. I love her so much so i'm trying to find her a great home to go to.

You cannot help smiling when in the presence of SANDER! ?? He is 55 lbs. of love & cuddles, sloppy kisses, and tons of fun! Our dedicated kennel tech Robyn doesn't pick favorites, but even she can't help but take time out of her daily tasks to love on this big ol' teddy bear! He is great with other friendly dogs and loves playing with our staff & volunteers and his doggie pals. Sander is most definitely BFF material for a single person/couple, or he would be a trusted family pet. He may be hunky, but it is his innate sweetness and big heart that shine through as his best of many qualities! Come get some sweet kisses from Sander, a 2 yr old Labrador Retriever mix, on your meet-n-greet. Our visiting hours are Mon, Wed-Fri 10am-3:30pm, or you may call our front desk at 228-466-4516 to schedule an appointment. Please bring your children and dog (s) along for the visit to ensure compatibility. *Sander's adoption fee is $75, which includes deworming, neutering, vaccines, microchip, heartworm test, and a free vet check with one of our participating veterinarians. An approved adoption application always applies!

VAN may look rather formidable and stoic in his photos, but in reality, he has a happy demeanor, and loves to please our staff & volunteers. This stocky, muscular fella is not all brawn - he has intelligence and a big heart as well. And we're sure you've noticed how stunningly handsome Van is! Wowzah!! Van is approx. 2 yrs. old and due to his statute likely an American Bully/American Staffordshire Terrier mix. Whatever the blend, he is one fine looking dog!Van appears to have been part of a family very recently. He is accustomed to receiving treats and will sit obediently for a yummy snack. He is not rambunctious or disorderly in any way and seeks out direction when going for a walk or meeting new friends. He is a really good boy! You can meet this hunky sweet boy during our visiting hours: Mon, Wed-Fri 10am-3:30pm, or you may call our front desk at 228-466-4516 to schedule an appointment. Please bring your children and dog(s) along for the visit to ensure compatibility. *Van's adoption fee is $75, which includes deworming, neutering, vaccines, microchip, heartworm test, and a free vet check with one of our participating veterinarians.
