Found this sweet boy wondering around my boyfriends house. We started feeding him and took him to vets to scan for chip and vaccinate him. We can't keep him due to space and not enough time to spend with him. He deserves someone who can give him more attention. He is housetrained but when he asks to go outside, you have to be quick :)

Gracie is five years old. She is a pitbull mix. Gracie is spayed and housebroken. She is also micro chipped. Gracie loves her people fiercely and greets you with a wagging tail and wiggling body. Gracie loves to play with toys, chew on bones, play tug with the rope, hunt lizards and sniff the ENTIRE yard. She is not the biggest fan of clothing. She loves to give kisses and snuggle and is happy to sleep on the end of the bed if given the opportunity. She is afraid of loud noises such as fireworks. Her arch nemesis is the vacuum. She would be best suited for a home without cats or small dogs.

Please share this amazing boy with all your friends and help him find his forever home. Mac is a smart boy with a loving, playful personality...and the softest belly i have ever had the honor pet. He'd really love a family of homebodies because he'd rather not be alone....ever. But if you have to leave him, he does have a Fort Knox strong crate to keep him safe. Looking for a couch potato dog, well Mac is for you! He does love to sleep on the couch but also loves to play with the fosters dog. He listens well when he is off leash in the backyard. He also gets excited to go on the 2 mile walk with his foster mom and walks well on leash. He loves his foster mom and likes to follow her around. He is also very smart, he has started learning when his foster mom is getting ready to leave and will go to his crate ? He is house trained and doesn’t chew on anything that isn’t his toys. He does have some separation anxiety but has already started doing much better now that he is in a foster home and has a routine. He also is on medicine at least for now to help and has a durable crate as we work on his separation anxiety. For more info, please reach out to mizelk@yahoo.com If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an adoption application (Click on the light blue rectangle that says "adoption application) at https://www.shelteredpaws.com/adoption Sheltered Paws is providing this pup with a leash, collar, durable chew toy, snacks and a rebate certificate good for a training class. You can pick your trainer and Sheltered Paws will rebate back to you an amount up to but not to exceed $100.00.

Story
If you want a dog to make you laugh, 2-year-old Moose is your man. This guy reminds me of a baby moose romping around wanting all the love. At approximately 60 pounds, he is the classic big dog who thinks he is the perfect lap dog. Great with kids and warms up to new humans with a little bit of time and pets. We are noticing that Moose tends to prefer men over women (totally unusual) and needs a little more time to open up to women. He likes to be the main center of attention when other dogs are around. Does well with some dogs as long as slowly introduced. Great walking companion and loves hikes. House trained and does well in a room by himself. He’s never needed to be crated because he doesn’t bother anything when left alone. He is smart and knows some basic commands. He is food driven but respectful when human food is around. He is a goofball that brings smiles to all of us as he romps and plays. Do you have room in your life for more smiles and laughs? If so, Moose is your forever soul mate. Adoption fee includes all vaccines up to date, spay/neuter and microchip.

Captain here, looking for a dog to lead the way? Consider me! I am loyal, goofy, and lots of fun! I can be nervous until we know each other better, but if you lived on the cold/hot hard streets you may be a little wary with new people too. Now, my time at the rescue has really really improved my life and I am SO MUCH more social and outgoing! I am a big, beautiful reddish-tan Pittie/Labrador mix with a white racing stripe down the middle of my chest! Our small canine family came to God's Dogs Rescue in a pickle, a rag tag group of Labradors and one pregnant female! We came to this safe haven with just 3 dogs and now we're a whole lot more! But all of us are now spayed and neutered and READY for furever families who won't leave us to run the streets and starve, we actually have gotten a little chunky, lol and REALLY HAPPY!! As Captain, I'll ensure that you are properly lead and motivated to get your day to day life moving! Well, that's because I need daily walks but besides the point! Some basic information about Captain; he is male, Pitbull/Labrador Retriever mix, and is medium/large-sized boy, at about 60#.

Meet Nyla, a loving and playful 2-year-old Pitbull Terrier mix who wears the title of "mom" with pride. Nyla's vibrant spirit shines through in her playful antics and her deep affection for belly rubs. When the excitement of playtime kicks in, she has a cute habit of gently taking your hand in her mouth, showing her eagerness for some interactive fun. Nyla has been making great progress in her leash training, proving her willingness to learn and adapt. Baths might not be her favorite activity, as she's a bit wary of water, but her courageous spirit is helping her overcome her fears one step at a time. She's also conquered her initial trepidation of wearing a collar and being on a leash, showing her determination to embrace new experiences. This sweet girl is a fan of knotted ropes and treats - two things that always bring a sparkle to her eyes. While she's currently enjoying the company of her housemates, we're still exploring her comfort level around other dogs. With time and patience, we hope to see Nyla's social circle expand. Nyla's journey is one of growth and transformation, and she's ready to continue that journey with a loving forever family. If you're looking for a loyal companion who will shower you with affection and make every moment a joyful one, Nyla might just be the perfect match for you. Open your heart to Nyla and discover the true meaning of unconditional love and companionship.

Meet Chance, a survivor with a heart full of love. His story is sadly familiar; he was abandoned in a field to fend for himself. Thankfully, a kind-hearted lady living nearby stepped in to help. She gave Chance the chance he needed to show just how much love and devotion he had to offer. In his foster home, Chance has proved to be quite the gentleman. He's house-trained and knows how to sit on command. But most importantly, he's a playful guy who thrives in the company of people. His foster mom does say he can be a bit pesky at times, but who can resist that playful spirit? Chance has a list of favorites that will make you smile. He adores playing tug-o-war and FETCH, and he's excellent at taking treats gently. He's an active pup, so he's looking for a family that enjoys adventures and keeping active. If you're ready to open your heart and home to a dog who's been through a lot and is ready to give his all, then Chance is the one. Don't miss the opportunity to make wonderful memories with this loving and loyal companion. Fill out your application today and give Chance the second chance he deserves!

Story
Buddy is a very sweet, docile Pit (mix?), 8-10 yrs old, who will need a new home in the next couple of months. I'm helping my son, S, find the perfect family. Buddy is super chill and gets along with everyone, including S's cat, my grandkids (2 & 6), my cats, and my grumpy old dog. He just hangs out wherever you bring him, and is especially happy with a bed or sofa, a cuddly blanket, and some sturdy chew toys. Buddy appeared on S's porch late one night in early 12/2023. He was emaciated, but we found the owner who agreed to let S temporarily foster, as he couldn't keep him. Digestive issues cause bloody diarrhea occasionally. Blood & fecal studies gave no answers, daily Metamucil has helped lots. S has loved Buddy's companionship, but between S's long hours at work (he goes home mid-shift to let Buddy out), cleanup, having to move (roommate moved out), and the unavailable time & unaffordable expense of additional medical testing, he wants to find a safe, permanent home for Buddy.

Please fill out an adoption application found at haydudeequine.org Heidi - You are the bridge between what was and what will be, my pathway to a new life! My name is Heidi, full of youthful exuberance for life, innocence and curiosity. Ready to crawl right into your heart (won't take long either!!) and be a part of a family...YOUR family! I am still a youngster yet, a big puppy at heart! I have lots of energy and am quite agile. I could be a great candidate for obedience classes and maybe even some fun ones like agility classes. I'm a smart cookie (i know cuz my foster mom tell me so!) and catch on quickly. At 11 months and around 45lbs, I shouldn't get much bigger at my adult weight. What a perfect size for...everything! Neighborhood strolls, nature hikes(aaaah, all those wonderful tantalizing smells), camping, being a co-pilot for errand runs or trips to the park! You name it, I'm ready to give it a whirl and have a blast too (with whatever it is) just cuz we're doing it together!! And the bestest part is that I'm also small enough that I don't hog the whole couch for my cherished cuddle time!! My foster mom wanted you to know this about me - -she is housebroken -she wants to be a lap dog; -she would fit well with an adult home with older children; -with her high prey drive she should be in a home without small dogs or cats but will do well with her size or larger size breed of dogs; -she is a fast learner and will shine with an owner that will include her in their everyday life adventures; -she is crate trained; -she follows basic commands and walks well on leash; -she thrives on daily walks; -she’s a family dog and will make a fabulous family member; -she loves walks, hikes, exploring, tug of war and games using her nose and sparking her intelligence; -she’s quite agile and shows ability in figuring out how to jump over or crawl under set obstacles. She is happy, fun loving and eager to bring joy to her forever home! As my short sleek coat is low maintenance in the grooming department, making me more of a wash-n-to type of gal. And you do know what that means don't you?!! Oh yep yep, lots of extra time in the 'spoil me rotten' department. And you know that's what it's all about!! ;) Big on personality, smart and inquisitive, affectionate and sweet, my oh my I have a boatload of great traits going on, oh and don't forget my stunning good looks, to make me a great family addition, I just need the family...could it be YOUR family?
