Story
Hi, my name is Maggie Mae. I am a beautiful, happy, soft and sometimes shy girl that may take a minute to warm up to you. I usually feel more comfortable around women, but there are a few men that I absolutely adore. I love pets, hugs and kisses from the people that I'm comfortable around. I love my stuffed animals and I am the only one in this whole shelter who doesn't destroy toys! Walks are nice and I do really well on my leash. Sometimes I like to carry my stuffies in my mouth on walks with me. Have I mentioned that I really like treats, who doesn't right Sometimes they ask me to sit and then I get a treat. I am a pro at this and I bet I could be trained to do a lot of things with treats. I like almost every dog that I meet and most of them seem to like me as well. I love to run and be chased and I can play pretty rough with the dogs that like to play that way. I also love water! I love to chase the water in the hose and I like little swimming pools. Sometimes when I play hard with my friends at the shelter, I get a little muddy or grass stained and they give me a bath, it's like being at the spa. I just stand there and enjoy all the attention. NOTES ON MAGGIE: She is an amazing dog, but she could use some support and training. In a previous home she was a little protective of the female in the home. Ideally she might do best in a home with females. But, we think she can overcome this behavior, she just hasn't been given a chance to adjust to a different living environment

Story
Hi, I'm Betty, a charming 2-year-old spayed American Pitbull Terrier with a striking black and white coat. I'm a bit of a bashful girl at first, but if you're patient and offer me a few warm hugs, you'll quickly see my true colors shine through. I'm still getting used to the leash, so I might need a little bit of encouragement and time to become fully comfortable. However, I absolutely love going for walks, so a harness might be a great choice for me-it feels safer and helps me build my confidence. When it's time to wind down, I'm perfectly content and quiet in my kennel, dreaming of our next day's adventures or perhaps our next game of fetch. Speaking of playtime, I just can't get enough of fetch and tugging on rope toys! It's the best way to bond and have fun, don't you think? Currently, I haven't had the chance to meet other dogs, so I'm a bit of an unknown in that department. If you have other furry family members, I'd love to meet them through a proper introduction to ensure we can all get along harmoniously. If you're looking for a gentle soul who's eager to find her place in the world (and in your heart), then I'm your girl. Give me a bit of time, and I promise to be the loving, playful companion you've been dreaming of. Let's explore the world together, at our own pace, and create unforgettable memories.

Hi there! I'm Desa, a 4-year-old fawn American Pit Bull Terrier with a heart full of love. I'm a sweet lady who absolutely adores being around people. My calm demeanor makes me a great companion for cozy days at home or gentle strolls through quiet neighborhoods. While I'm still figuring out how to feel about other dogs, I truly thrive in human company. I'm not too fond of crowded dog parks, but I promise to fill your home with warmth and affection. I'm known for my loving hugs and I'm quite the cuddle bug; snuggling is my specialty! I believe I would do best in a house where I can have space to stretch out comfortably and be the cherished pet. If you're looking for a loyal friend who is eager to give and receive love, look no further. Let's make endless memories together, just us!

Story
Hello! I'm Cita, a loving four-year-old spayed female Pitbull mix, with a gorgeous seal-colored coat-black with reddish/brown undertones that shine in the sunlight. Like my sister Gigi, I'm a big cuddlebug who absolutely adores being around people. I feel happiest when I'm part of the action and getting plenty of affection. If I'm left alone or kenneled, I can get a little loud-I just miss being around my humans too much! A home with a fenced backyard would be ideal for me, where I can play and express myself freely without feeling confined. Milk-Bone treats? Yes, please! They're definitely a favorite of mine. I also enjoy taking walks and am quite skilled with a dual leash, especially when I'm walking alongside my sister, Gigi. While we love each other's company, we don't necessarily need to be adopted together-though it would be wonderful if we could share a home! I'm playful and absolutely love my toys. They keep me busy and happy. Also, I can never get enough of back scratches-they're the best! I'm still perfecting my potty training, but I'm making progress with a little guidance and patience. And, just so you know, I have the cutest little permanent pout on my face that's sure to melt your heart every time you look at me. If you're looking for a sweet and affectionate companion who will fill your days with joy and love, I'm ready to be your faithful friend. Let's make countless memories together!

Hello there! My name is Gigi, and I'm a four-year-old spayed female with a charming greyish-brown coat. I'm a delightful Pitbull mix and a total cuddlebug who absolutely loves being around people! Being the affectionate gal that I am, I thrive on attention and companionship. I must confess, I can be a bit vocal when I'm kenneled or left alone; I just miss my humans too much! Because of this, a house with a fenced backyard would be perfect for me-plenty of space for me to play and express myself without any worries. I absolutely adore Milk-Bone treats; they're my favorite! Walking is another joy of mine, and I'm an expert at using a dual leash, especially since I've been practicing with my sister, Cita. We came into the shelter together but it's not essential for us to be adopted together. If your heart has room for one, or even better, for both of us, that would be incredible. I'm playful and love to run around outside, so get ready for some active fun in the sun with me. I'm still mastering the fine art of potty training, but I'm getting better every day with a little patience and encouragement. If you're looking for a loving companion who will shower you with affection and brighten your days with joy, I'm the girl for you. Let's start our wonderful life together!

Story
Sadie is 2 years old. We got her as a puppy from someone that had a litter. She is a great dog. She does get along with other smaller or non alpha dogs. She loves to love and please, she does have energy and needs a yard to run in or at least someone to take her for walks daily. She is very active but also very chill when she needs to be. Sadly she doesn't get along with other pitbull or at least our other female pitbull. She adores our frenchie who is 1 years old and gets along great with our yellow lab who is 9 years old this saturday. She listens well and wants approval for good deeds. She loves children from babies to teenagers and plays with them without any issues. She is an amazing dog and deserves a home where she can be free and be loved. We are not asking for any fees for her as we just want her in a loving home.

Story
We adopted Indy who was taken off the streets. Her makeup includes five breeds including pit, Australian shepherd, Australian cattle dog, bully, and boxer. Her energy is high and she needs more than we can give her. I am also going back to work in an office and she will be in a cage all day which seems unfair. She does chew a lot and will occasionally destroy a pillow or gadget cord if not watched. As far as potty training, she is pretty good at letting you know when she needs to go out. She has been good with other dogs when we take her to the dog park and my only concern is that she likes to jump up on people. Super friendly and shy demeanor but she is strong. Other than that she loves to snuggle with me when she sleeps.

Bobby is a smart, fun loving, silly one year old boy. He loves his people, loves to play fetch in the backyard and go on walks. He has great leash manners and would make a fantastic running partner! He is crate trained, potty trained and completed a two-week board and train with Kilo and Frei K-9. Bobby would do best as an only dog and in a home without small children. Per Wisdom Panel he is an American Pit Bull, Australian Cattle Dog, GSD, Husky, and American Staffordshire Terrier mix. Due to his breed makeup, no apartments please.

Betty Boop is so lucky to have made it to the shelter to change her path. She was found as a stray and this 37 lb underweight darling girl seems to have been making babies for a while. This is no longer her future! This beautiful girl has the personality of an angel. So far, we have learned that she LOVES everybody and the shelter states she is dog friendly. She wanted to meet the fosters cat, but the cat said, nope, not today. However, Betty Boop’s tail was wagging the whole time!  She is going to be someone’s jackpot love bug baby!! The foster has already learned in 24 hours that she is potty and kennel trained.  Does not bark or whine.  Walks failry good on a leash.  Enjoys car rides and LOVES people! Two weeks after intake Betty Boop, affectionately known as Boopers, has put on some much needed weight.  Guestimating 45 and climbing. She absolutley loves play time with other dogs. She loves as mentioned all people but she is going to be too much for small children.  She is a strong girl and we are working on leash manners and jumping.  She just loves everything and everyone and especially a tennis ball.

Peyton from the Chunky Bunch Litter is now 8 months old and weighs 52 lbs. This handsome boy can be a little shy at first, yet he still makes the best first impression with his sweet and submissive nature. He is great with everyone he meets, including kids, cats, and other dogs. He would do well in a home with any combination, or he could be the only pet. He is also potty trained and kennel trained. His foster mom has nothing but great things to say about this boy, especially how well behaved he is for still being a puppy!
