Story
Dahlia is a two-year old, energetic cuddle bug looking for a new furever family. We adopted her in North Carolina the Summer of 2022. She loves to run and go on adventures and loves a good game of tug-of-war. We love her dearly, but due to changes in our personal lives we cant give her the love she deserves. Adoption fee is very negotiable to the right family. We are looking to rehome Dahlia to a loving family that: Is active and will take her on regular walks/runs. Has sibling pets to be good role models (she wants friends!) or can otherwise socialize her. Dahlia gets very excited around other animals and tries to run up and play with them, but her energy tends to scare other dogs. Can train her. Shes house trained and knows basic cues like "sit," "down," and "come." She gets distracted easily when outside, so doesn't have automatic recall and needs to walk on-leash. Wants lots of cuddles and kisses from Dahlia! She is super cuddly and loving once you get to know her.

Story
My name is BAKO and I'm a handsome 10 yr young M Blue Amstaff/Pitbull Terrier. I'm 66 lbs of PURE GREEK GOD! I was surrendered by my owner due to MOVING OVERSEAS. I was sad to see my owner move and leave me behind, but he was worried because I'm a senior that the flight would be too stressful for me as I've never been crated/contained.. but it's ok.. I'm glad to have stayed here as I'm ready to move forward to a new life adventure with new hoomans! I'm a very sweet, easy going, fun loving, happy go lucky guy. I like everyone I meet but I haven't met alot of dogs , so I'm a little socially ackward with other dogs. When I see them on my walks I get very excited to greet them and can be a little pushy but I've never gotten snarky or snappy.. so I could use some help in the dog socialization dept. I just need to hang out with more dogs so I can get used to them. I used to live with a cat so I'm fine with cats. I'm fine with young kids in passing but have never lived with any kids so I think older kids ages 7 yrs+ would be best. I'm in great shape/health for a senior and people can't believe my age because I'm lively, have medium energy and love to go for walks. My back legs can be a little cranky so it's best if I don't have to walk up too many stairs and a home in the suburbs with a yard would be ideal/best... but an apt with an elevator would be fine too. I'm SUCH AN EASY GOING SPECIAL guy and a TOTAL LOVE BUG!! I like to snuggle next to you on the couch or bed and I'm always up for a game of fetch inside or out! I'm JUST THE BEST!!! and an AMBASSADOR for MY BREED. I'm looking for that wonderful person/couple/family who will LOVE & APPRECIATE me for the rest of my golden years!! If that's you.. pls come meet me today! For more info/application - PLS EMAIL: INFO@TAILSOFLOVERESCUE.ORGMarch 26, 2024, 7:19 pm

Story
My name is JENNA & I'm a gorgeous 4 yr F Red/White American Staffordshire/Boxer X. I'm 65 lbs of PURE SOUTHERN TOM-BELLE. I was rescued from a high kill shelter in Texas having been surrendered for NO GOOD REASON. I'm a sweet girl but I'm a little wary of new people/strangers and can be a bit snarky if you come on too strong... so you gotta go slow with me and let me warm up to you... if you come with a cheeseburger I'm your best friend. I had a rough life in TX and was left out in the yard alot and some folks weren't so nice to me down there.. but once I get to know you, I'm right by your side and a BIG LOVING CUDDLEBUG. I love to snuggle on the couch right next to you while you're watching TV. I know basic commands but am always up to learn more because I'm a smart girl and a quick learner. I love having a job, whether it’s working on new tricks or playing with toys and solving puzzles. I'm an expert fetcher and would love to fetch to my hearts content. I'm still getting used to walking on a leash because I was never walked when I was in TX so need some more leash training. I'm very well behaved in the home, I don't jump up on furniture without being invited up, don't beg or whine for food or go after human food, and am good at keeping myself entertained and don't have separation anxiety. I am fully house trained and crate trained (and will often go there for naps and is happy to spend the night there as well). I'm ok with other dogs in passing but if they get to close too fast I may snap at them. I don't like to share my humans so I should be an ONLY DOG and I've never lived with a cat but I did like to chase them in the yard in TX so NO CATS. Also since I'm not immediately fond of strangers, it's best if I were in an ADULT ONLY home. I would do best in a QUIET HOME with not alot of distractions.. city life in my foster home has been interesting but I'm a southern girl at heart, so a home in the suburbs would be best for me. I'm looking for someone or a couple that will take the time to build a relationship with me and I will reward them with ULTIMATE LOVE AND LOYALTY. I'm a sweet girl with that tough Texas spirit and ready to rock with you. For more info and application - please email: INFO@TAILSOFLOVERESCUE.ORGMarch 26, 2024, 7:19 pm

Story
My name is LOVELY LUCY and I’m a beautiful 1.5 yr F Blue Brindle/White Amstaff/Pitbull Terrier X. I’m 55 lbs of PURE SWEETNESS. I’m being rehomed due to FINANCIAL HARDSHIP. I’m sad to be leaving my owner but I know it’s best for me in the long run to find a new home that will be able to care for me properly.    I’m a SUGAR SWEET, FRIENDLY and AFFECTIONATE girl. I’m still a puppy so I will need DAILY STRUCTURED EXERCISE and DISCIPLINE. My owner was home with me most of the day and he would just let me out in the yard and he would never walk me so I’m going to need further leash training. I’ve been a solo dog since I left my litter mates so I’m been kind of sheltered  and a bit nervous/shy outside of my comforts zone so  I will need further exposure/socialization with dogs and outside situations… but I’m dying to get out of my limited environment and get out to experience the world out there.  I’m ok with other dogs but I will need help with learning social manners and need to be “roped” in to learning boundaries… but I’m a SMART GAL.. I’m EAGER TO PLEASE and QUICK TO LEARN and I have a WONDERFUL SWEET MILD MANNERED temperament. I could go with another dog (preferably male) to learn the ropes!! Also since I’ve not been around young kids, it’s best that I go with older kids ages 12 Yrs+ I’m not sure about cats as I haven’t met any so probably best that I don’t go to a home with cats. I’m A GORGEOUS GIRL and will be a JEWEL of a DOG once I get the TLC I deserve!!!    For an application.. please email: INFO@TAILSOFLOVERESCUE.ORGMarch 26, 2024, 7:19 pm
