Story
Hi, I'm Nishi, a handsome black, 60-pound, pit bull/labrador mix. I am a one-year-old pup who weighs 60 pounds. I have playful energy and a big heart to match. I'm looking for my forever home with someone who can take me on adventures and cuddle me at the end of the day. I do well with other dogs and may benefit best with a higher energy play buddy. I would also do great with a very active human buddy that can take me on walks, runs, hikes, etc. A home with older, teenage children is preferred as I can be a bit rambunctious. I wouldn’t want to knock down any small kiddos. Young and full of great energy, it is recommended that I go to someone with consistent and firm structure for me. I have not been cat tested but I can be if you’d like. I'm also smart and eager to learn new things. I know how to sit, stay, and come, and I'm working on other commands too. I'm potty, crate and leash trained, so I'm ready to go wherever you want to take me. I'm neutered and vaccinated. I am heartworm positive but receiving treatment. I am being fostered in Colonial Heights, VA but I can be transported out of state for the right home. If you're looking for a fun-loving and affectionate companion, I'm your guy. Fill out an application and my rescue will reach out to you. I can't wait to meet you!

Story
Hi there, I’m Emmie, a 4-year-old, 76-pound, white and black pit bull mix. I’m a laid-back and cuddly girl who loves to be with my people. I’m spayed, vaccinated, and heartworm negative. I’m a smart girl who is house and crate trained. I’m looking for a committed and understanding owner who can give me the time and training I need to overcome my insecurities. I’m a sweet and loyal companion who will make you happy and proud. I will do my best as an only pet, with no other dogs or cats, and with no children in the home. I am a laid-back girl who absolutely loves to relax and cuddle but is also always down for an adventure. I am satisfied just being with my people doing whatever the day brings and will adjust my energy level to match yours. While I am laid back, I need someone who is willing to set rules, provide boundaries, and give proper decompression time when first bringing me home. Giving me structure and guidance helps me feel more secure and will create trust with my new family. I’m currently being fostered in Hampton Roads, VA, but I can be transported to nearby states if you’re the right match for me. I’m looking for a loving and stable home where I can have fun and snuggle with my people. If you’re looking for a fun and faithful furry friend, I’m the one for you! Complete an application and my rescue will be in touch. *Must be 21 or older to apply.

Story
Hi, I’m Jetta, a gorgeous and sassy pit bull mix. Do you like my ears? I like to wear one up and the other down. It’s just my style! I’m 45 pounds and black and white in color. I’m looking for my forever home where I can be your loyal and fun companion. I’m a vivacious and playful girl who has good energy and loves going on runs, long hikes, and is always ready for the next adventure. I’m house trained, crate trained, and leash trained. I’m spayed, vaccinated, and heartworm negative, so I’m healthy and happy. I’m great with humans of all ages, but I prefer to be the only dog in the home so that all the attention is on me. I love to be spoiled rotten and constantly showered with affection. I’m a special girl who has a lot of sass inside my compact little body. I’m happy doing whatever my humans are doing and always want to be a part of the action. I have a strong prey drive, so no small animals for me and a 6 ft fence or apartment life is a must. I’m a wonderful dog who is one of the most loving dogs you will ever meet. I am ready for a home of my own where I can be everything to my new family. I’m currently being fostered in Hampton Roads, VA but can be transported out of state for the right home. If you’re looking for a loyal and fun companion, I’m your girl. Please fill out an application and my rescue will be in touch. I can’t wait to meet you!

Story
Hello, I'm Lucas, a blue and white pit bull mix. I'm looking for a fun and loving home. While I am a voluptuous 65 pounds, I tend to feel like a puppy and a lap dog. I'm a sweet, funny, and smart boy who knows how to sit and give you my paw. I'm also hilariously funny and like to do silly things like look at myself in the mirror and sleep in cozy places like small laundry baskets. I love to run and play with tennis balls and I give the best hugs ever. I'm great with children, but older kids who handle my energy are preferred. I'm especially fond of men and I love to wrestle and play with them. I'm very loyal and affectionate and I will greet you like an enthusiastic lion when you come home. I am kind but tend to be aloof with the mom and kids of the family, so my ideal home would be with just me and my bro. I'm good with other dogs, but I need slow introductions as I don’t get along with every dog. I don't like to be in a crate, but I'm house and leash trained. I am also not destructive so I do well when left to roam the home. I'm vaccinated, heartworm negative, and neutered. We are not sure if I'm good with cats or other animals, but I can be tested if you’d like. I'm being fostered in Hampton, VA, but I can be transported if you're the one for me. You must be 21 or older to apply, and you must be ready to have a lot of fun with me. If you think you can be my forever guy, fill out an application so we can be the next dynamic duo.

Story
Hi there, I'm Millie, a brown and white pit bull mix who is looking for a forever family. I'm 40 pounds, spayed, vaccinated, and heartworm negative. I'm also house, crate, and leash trained, and I walk great on the leash. I'm a sweet, smart, and food motivated girl who has had some challenges in my life. I have issues with men, but I can overcome them with patience and trust. I can also be a fear snapper, so I need a calm and confident person who can help me feel safe and secure. Because of my fears, I tend to guard resources. I will guard food from other dogs and treats from humans. I will react if you approach me before I am finished with my bone. I'm good with children who can respect my boundaries and not startle me. I would do best with older children who will understand that I am a scared dog. I'm also selective with other dogs, but I do like some of them. I prefer a friendly and easygoing dog who won't bother me too much. I am not friendly with cats. I'm currently being fostered in Hampton, VA, but I can be transported to another state for the right home. I'm looking for a responsible and caring person who can give me a loving and peaceful environment. You must be 21 or older to apply for me, and you must be willing to work with me and my quirks. If you think you are the one for me, please fill out an application and let's meet. I promise to be your loyal and grateful friend for life.

Story
I’ve got a story to tell—one of resilience and wagging tails. You see, I was thrown out of a window, my head taking the brunt of the impact. The other traumas I’ve endured are unknown. But mentally, I’m an overcomer. I adore people, even though my body bears the scars of my past. When excitement bubbles up inside me, I run in circles—my own joyful dance. The vet suspects some brain damage, affecting my sight and hearing. I’m not completely deaf or blind, but I do have my limitations. But guess what? None of this slows me down. I’ll walk by your side, on or off leash once I trust you. Sometimes, I’ll circle back and touch your leg, just to reassure myself that I’m not alone. At my foster home, I’ve got two fellow mischief-makers. They’re my partners in crime, and we keep each other company. Being alone isn’t my thing—I’ve been through too much trauma for that. So, whether it’s my people or my dog friends, I’m equally happy. I am a 2-year-old, 50-pound, pit bull mix with a beautiful graphite silver coat. I get along with submissive male dogs or females in general. I am not good with cats so please don’t have any of those in the home. I am neutered, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative. I am also a good boy who is leash and pen trained. I do pretty well especially if there are other dogs to guide me, but I am not completely potty trained. We are not sure if this is because of my injuries or if maybe this will change if I go to a home with less dogs and a family that can work on firming up my potty-training skills. I’m Stevie Wonder, and I’m ready to find my forever family. Maybe it’s yours! I’m a goofball who adores water. Splashing, swimming, you name it—I’m in! If you’re patient, understanding, and willing to embrace my quirks, we’ll be a match made in doggy heaven. I’m currently fostered in Sanford, NC, but I can be transported for the right-fitting family. If you’re 21 or older and ready to open your heart to an overcomer like me, let’s create a new chapter together!
