Story
Bishop - Needs Foster or Forever home Male Pit bull type dog About 6 years old House trained Crate trained Walks well on a leash Knows basic commands Can live happily with another dog of similar size Needs a home with older children Up to date with vaccines Neutered Bishop came to us as an owner surrender. He had been rescued from a bad situation by a Good Samaritan who could not keep him. We saw him advertised on a free pets' site and contacted the owner, who was thankfully was willing to work with a rescue. After spending time in boarding while we searched for a foster home for him, Bishop has spent time in foster-based training. He has done great! Bishop loves his walks, and needs a family who will take him on adventures and continue to introduce him to new people, places, and things. He would love a family who is at home for at least part of the day - a stay-at-home parent, a retired person or couple, or someone who works from home would be ideal for him. He is happiest when he is with people. He is an absolutely wonderful, happy, affectionate dog who will make a wonderful family member.

Story
I can’t believe I even have to do this but I’m looking for a really good home for my dog. She’s housed trained she doesn’t use the bathroom in the house, she doesn’t chew things only toys she a really good dog. She doesn’t like the rain or wet grass and she loves sleeping in her cage with the door left open and she loves sheets. She’s good with big dogs not little ones and she doesn’t really like cats either. Remy would like to be the center of attention so a house with no little kids is preferred she does good with older kids. My daughter is really scared of all animals we had to rehome my cat and I tried to give it time but she just to scared of her. I would like for Remy to have a home with a backyard so she can run around something I haven’t been able to give her cause we live in an apartment building.

Story
I took the dog in from a family who neglected him, I did this to give him a home full of love until I could find him a family. I had a bleeding heart once I heard his story from a friend and without any thought took him in. His name is Henry and he's about one years old. I took him to the vet, he's completely healthy and has all his shots. He is a very sweet cuddly boy who craves love. He lives his toys and blankets. He is crate trained but loves to sleep in bed at night when he's allowed to. I am looking for a family home that has a big yard for him to play in and people who will give him so much love and attention. He needs additional training because he was neglected and never trained properly.

Story
Moose was adopted by my family from a rescue when he was 3 months old. He just turned 1 on valentines day. A DNA test was done on him and he is 100% American Pitbull Terrier and beautiful brindle! Moose is sooo sweet and loving. He is great with kids and other dogs. He wants to play all day and has high energy. He is e-collar trained and it would be up to the future owner if they would want to continue with the e-collar. We just found out my 3 year old is allergic. He is a big baby!!! and LOVES love.
