Story
Hannibal is a 3-year-old male, blue-nose pit bull. (08/2020) He was rescued from a fence in Georgia and is currently in Florida with us now. Hannibal has always been a great listener, he does commands like lay, sit, paw or shake(either paw), gentle, kiss, and if you say I love you in the right way he howls trying to say it back to you. We think he would be best for a household without kids, and not a lot of other dog competition, (he has a French Bulldog brother currently), they play a bit ruff together, but its all love. Hannibal is 85lbs and likes to play & will make someone a great soul mate, or best buddy, he is very loyal to his human. We wish circumstances were different, but we can't keep him, we have to move and he deserves the best, and we want to find him a good forever home.

Story
Sailor is a amazing dog. He is healthy and very loveable and not aggressive, but he is protective once he gets to know you. He is a pure bred German Shepard and AKA registered. He does require a lot of attention. Once he bonds with you he will be your shadow. He does tend to have separation anxiety and will chew things if left alone for too long. So it's better to leave him in his cage if you have to leave him alone. He loves to play fetch. He knows some commands and would properly would do well with more obedience training. I have been fostering him for a couple of weeks. But do to some of my health issues and up coming surgeries I need to find him a good home soon.

Roman is a rescue german shepherd mix! He is 2 years old and loves to play! He is sweet and cuddly and loves to be right by your side. An ideal home for him would be someone who has a yard or time for multiple walks a day! He is housebroken, neutered, and up to date on shots. I unfortunately cannot keep him due to living situations changing.

Details
Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained,
Story
Elsa is a great dog! She is very quiet and timid. We have two kids and one on the way and she would just prefer to be in a quieter house. She is shy around other dogs but she may warm up to one. We have a cat and they don’t get along. She is not spayed, we got her when she was 6 and she is now 11, she goes into heat every April. We were told she was too old and small at this point to be spayed so we just haven’t done it. She would prefer to be in a house where people were home most of the time and she could spend her days laying next to you on the couch. She would do really well as a companion dog for an older person.
