Story

 Meet Blair, the adorable 2 1/2-year-old Pit mix with a heart full of love to give! At first, I may come across as a bit shy, but once I warm up to you, get ready to receive all the love and affection you can handle. I'm a charming female pup with a heart of gold. One of my absolute favorite things in the world is playing with other dogs. I'm a social butterfly and have had a blast playing with my furry friends at my foster mom's home. No issues to report here; I'm just a bundle of positive energy! Cuddling is another one of my specialties, and there's nothing I love more than snuggling up in bed with the almost teenager in my foster home. I'm the perfect companion for cozy nights in. While I'm great with older children who understand my gentle nature, those little ones tend to make me a tad nervous with their unpredictable noises. So, older kids would be a better fit for me. I'm your loyal shadow in the making! I'll follow you around and stay as close to you as possible because being by your side is where I feel safest and happiest. Not only am I a great companion, but I'm also quite well-behaved. I'm crate trained and have a spotless record when it comes to potty accidents in my foster home. But that's not all; I'm a quick learner! My foster mom has taught me the art of playing fetch, and I'm eager to impress you with my new skills. So, if you're looking for a loving, social, and affectionate companion who will be your faithful sidekick, look no further than me, Blair. Let's create wonderful memories together, one cuddle and game of fetch at a time. &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143September 20, 2023, 1:23 pm

Story

HW NegativeMeet Rufus, the charismatic 1-year-old pit mix with a heart full of love and boundless energy! This young pup has come a long way, and his remarkable journey is a testament to his resilience and spirit. Rufus was rescued with some skin problems, but thanks to the dedication of his foster family, he has healed up beautifully. His silky coat now shines as a testament to his newfound health and happiness. Playtime is Rufus's absolute favorite pastime, especially when it involves a game of fetch. With his enthusiasm and zest for life, he'll keep you entertained for hours on end. But don't be fooled by his playful exterior; Rufus also has a gentle side. He adores cuddling up on the couch with his foster mom while they enjoy some quality TV time together. As a young pup, Rufus is still learning the ropes, so he'll need your patience and continued training to help him grow into the best version of himself. When it comes to meeting new furry friends, Rufus prefers a gradual and gentle introduction, ensuring everyone feels comfortable and safe. In his foster home, Rufus has shown excellent manners in his crate, making him a breeze to care for. Due to his allergies, Rufus will need some extra care, including regular allergy medication like Benadryl. His paws occasionally turn a rusted red color due to high iron levels in food and tap water, but this doesn't dampen his spirit one bit. Rufus is a young, energetic, loving, and incredibly sweet pup who's exceptionally smart and food-motivated. If you're looking for a loyal companion who's already crate-trained and loves nothing more than to cuddle up with you, Rufus is the perfect match. All he needs is a little training and a lot of TLC to thrive and become your forever friend. Don't miss the chance to make Rufus a part of your family; he's ready to bring joy, love, and playfulness into your life!  September 20, 2023, 1:23 pm

With some patience, positive reinforcement, and consistent training, I'm confident I can become the best-behaved pup you've ever known. &#239&#184&#143 Couch Cuddler Extraordinaire: If there's one thing I adore more than anything else, it's attention and cuddling on the couch with my human.

Story

His size can be imposing at first, but he is actually quite the opposite - mild-mannered, great on the leash, and good around other dogs. He LOVES his back scratches. His excitement to play with you can translate to a little jumpiness so he is not recommended for a family with small children. Come meet this handsome fellow!
