Story
Nacho is a roughly two year old Pitbull that is a complete velcro dog. If you get up, he will follow and be at your side showing his support. He will steal your heart with his sweetness and gentle ways. He loves to snuggle, chew bones, and snuggle some more. You can catch him enjoying mid day couch naps like the potato he is. Dont let his stocky boy muscles deter you, hes a sensitive boy with lots of love to give. Nacho came into rescue after a tough life, and he has a few scars to show for it (both physically and mentally). His current foster siblings are two dogs (male and female) and hes done well with them. His foster family thinks he would do best with a female dog or as the only dog. He needs a loving family that will continue to build his confidence and show him the love he deserves. Will you give this sweet pittie a chance at a loving fur ever home? All our dogs/cats are vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm tested, on preventions, and spayed/neutered if old enough.

Story
I am writing to you with a very heavy heart. Due to my declining health and a necessary change in my living arrangements, I am forced to find a new home for my two beloved dogs, Duke and Prince. I am praying for a miracle to keep them together. They are an inseparable "odd couple"—a gentle Pit Bull and a tiny Chihuahua who relies on him. They have been my babies, and this is the hardest decision I have ever had to make. Here is a little about them: Duke (The Gentle Giant) Breed: American Pit Bull Terrier Age: 4 years old Personality: Incredibly loyal, loving, and patient. He lets his tiny brother think he is the boss. Health: He is healthy and active. He has a slight limp in his left hip (congenital) but it does not cause him pain or stop him from running and playing. History: Adopted from a shelter at 6 months old. Prince (The Tiny Boss) Breed: Chihuahua Age: ~3.5 years old Personality: Feisty, funny, and very active. He is the "man of the house" and keeps Duke in line.
