Tammy

American Pit Bull Terrier

Female, 4 yrs
Albuquerque, NM
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats,
Story
Meet Tammy - she's sweet as sugar and ready to show you why everyone who meets her immediately falls in love. She's a full-grown young lady - the perfect size for walks, relaxing on a patio, snuggling on the couch - whatever you want to do is good with Tammy. She also loves to run and play and can show her silly side when she gets excited. She walks well on a leash, and she knows how to sit. She adores people, especially ladies, and is great around puppies and dogs her size or smaller. She's also shown a polite tolerance for cats with proper introductions. Tammy can be a little unsure around larger dogs and taller people with deep voices, so it's always a good idea to bring the entire family - including any furry family members - in so everyone can meet and get to know one another. Tammy will be listening for your arrival with her adorably floppy ears - she can't wait to meet you! A team member says, "Tammy is one sweet little lady. She loves nothing more than spending time with you and getting pets. We've discovered her magic spot is her lower back - she'll position herself in front of you and look back at you as if to say 'begin scratching.' She'll let you know if you're not done scritching her. When your scritching shift is over, she'll give you the biggest pittie smile and snuggles."

Bronx is a lovely boy who will make a great family pet! He absolutely adores people and makes friends with every person he meets. He's a gentle boy who loves to just be by your side, leaning into you for affection. While he has made some doggy friends, he prefers those who will respect his space and just relax with him so if you have other dogs, bring them in to meet him to see if they're a good match! He is well-mannered and has done well with children. He has done well with house-training in the past. His favorite things to do are cuddling and playing with squeaky toys. He is an all-around good, sweet boy! Won't you give him a chance at a loving home?

Story
Ears caught your attention, didn't they?? They're the cutest. I'm a big, youngish gal with enough energy that I would find long walks (maybe even runs) something I would love to do. But then at night, I'd like to cuddle up with you and rest from my busy day. Sound fun. Let's make it happen!

Albuquerque, NM
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Max, a sweet older gentleman with plenty of love to go around. Max is a sturdy boy who turns into a floppy marshmallow when you spend time giving him attention and affection. He absolutely loves going to the park here and getting a chance to stretch his legs. Rather than play fetch, he prefers to get some laps in and then spend time snuggling with you - belly rubs are his favorite. He's a smart boy who knows commands like sit, shake, stay and come, and he has worked on crate and house training before, and he walks nicely on a leash. He has experience living with other dogs, and if you have doggos at home, please bring everyone in for a meet and greet to make sure it's the perfect fit. No cats, though - Max can't resist the chase. What Max truly can't resist, though, is a kind human who shows him lots of love. He'll show his appreciation by leaning into you for pets and quickly flopping over on his back so you can get to work on those belly rubs. Are you up for it? Come meet Max today. A team member says, "Max is a sweet boy who really lights up when he gets to spend time outside of his kennel with his human friends. He's got pretty good moves for an older pittie, and he loves when you call for him to come - he'll run over to you and flop down for snuggles and pets."

Hi friends, I'm Zia. Like my name implies, I have a sunny outlook on life - I enjoy spending time with my human friends here, especially when they take me out on walks and give me cuddles. I'm a fully grown girl but still young enough to enjoy all the things you'd like to do together. I walk nicely on a leash, I know how to sit, and I take treats gently. I'm game to learn anything else you'd like to teach me and follow you on any adventure. If you're ready to bring some sunshine into your life, come meet me today! A team member says, "Zia is a sweet, stunning girl. She has beautiful brindle markings, and she loves affection. She'd make a great forever friend for just about anyone."

Story
Yes, I am a lady, an elder dog who hopes for a home for me to relax and to show my humans love and devotion. I’m curious, though, and on leisurely walks I might want to meet and greet, and to smell (and “tell”—uhm, pee, when I smell something interesting) other dogs and greet other humans. Lower energy dogs are best for me if you have one, but on a walk I might stand back a bit when meeting some young wiggler who wants to play. I know all the tricks (sit, stay, and so on) and—have I said?—I love people, which means I love cuddles and scratches, especially from YOU! I’m the lady in Lady, and I’m your lady.

After you adopt me, you can say "It's Marley and Me" like the movie. Don't think I'll get into the kind of mischief that Marley did! I'm awfully cute with that big spot over my eye. I seem to get along with the dogs here at Animal Humane. If you already have a dog in your household, be sure and bring them with you when you come to meet me. Could be a match made in heaven.

Milo is a wiggly boy who charms everyone he meets! He walks well on a leash and loves riding in cars. He already knows how to "sit" and has done well with both kids and dogs in the past. He has also been noted to have done well with house-training. He knows his way around Lowe's and loves going there so if you're looking for some help with a DIY project, he's your guy (he will take payment in the form of treats and love!) Team Members have showered him with compliments, calling him "sweet", "well-mannered", "obedient" and "affectionate". They have noted that he seeks engagement and loves to be pet and cuddled. This gentle boy is due for some good luck and a loving home...are you the one to make his dreams come true?
