Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Lou Lou, My foster mom says that I am the sweetest little lady! She says I’m a bitty pittie and very well behaved. I LOVE to fetch! If I don’t have a ball to chase I am very good at finding sticks in the yard to bring to my foster mom to throw for me! I have never had my own yard so I like to run around in the yard and lounge in the grass with my ball or a good stick! We go on a walk every day and I like to take a toy along for the adventure! I get along well with my foster pit siblings but am sometimes protective of my toys (I have never had any of my own before so I am learning how to share). I haven’t spent much time around cats so I don’t know how I will react to a cat! I am kennel trained, know how to sit, am learning how to stay, and practicing other tricks too! I wish someone would adopt me because I am the very best friend anyone can ask for! Good with people, good with most dogs!

Story
🐶 Cherrybelle 🐶 2-3 yrs old Pittie mix 55lbs Do over! You know when you find yourself in a messy situation and you just really need a reset button? That's where I am! I had a rough beginning without all the love I now know that I deserve. Can you relate? Now, with the help of an amazing rescue team and my foster family I've had some time to work on me and get the care and love I needed. I'm getting my Do Over! I had heartworm, got treatment, beat it! I had cherry-eye, got surgery, no more eye problems! I was very underweight, I've been eating well with extra treats! I now have a strong and healthy body with a beautiful coat. I didn't even know how to doggo! Now I know how to play with toys and run the yard with my doggo friends. I may have even rolled in the mud a couple times heh... not gonna lie, it was messy but fun! I am house broken and crate trained. I don't LOVE my crate but I do well with it. I eat in there so I don't have to worry about the other dogs trying to steal my food and I also stay in there when my people are gone and when it's bedtime. I have a lot of pup brothers and sisters here and sometimes I get territorial and pushy, I've improved my manners a lot since living here though. I love playing with my pup friends but I also love my people! Couch cuddles, playing and a good ear massage, ? it! It's going to be a good life now, I can feel it in my waggy tail! Do you think we could be besties? Come meet me and let's find out! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 Our standard adoption fee is $375 cash or check and $385 credit card ($10 processing fee). .

Story
Meet Fletcher! 🐾 Fletcher is a sweet and cuddly 1-year-old Pit mix (born 4/4/2023) weighing 64 pounds. He’s the perfect shadow companion, happily following you around or curling up for a cozy nap. Fully potty trained, Fletcher hasn’t had a single accident at his foster home and is also crate-trained—though he appreciates a little treat incentive to go in. Fletcher’s heart is as big as his paws! He’s amazing with people of all ages and sizes and is gentle and curious around other animals. While he hasn’t had many encounters with dogs or cats, slow introductions have brought out his good-boy behavior. He’s even lived with small critters in cages and leaves them completely undisturbed. When it’s playtime, Fletcher loves his toys (but fetch isn’t really his thing—“My name is Fletcher, not FETCHer!”). He adores running zoomies in his fenced yard but stays calm and collected inside. He’s a chewer, but with enough enrichment and toys, he sticks to his playthings. Fletcher has a scar on his back left leg that occasionally causes a slight limp, but a vet has confirmed there’s nothing to worry about. This resilient pup is also incredibly tolerant—his ears, paws, tail, teeth, and belly are all fair game for gentle handling. Remarkably, Fletcher has yet to bark at all in his foster home! He’s a little skittish with loud noises but seeks comfort from his people or retreats to his bed when startled. Ready to welcome Fletcher’s loving, playful, and gentle energy into your home? He’s eager to find his forever family! 💕 Our standard adoption fee is $375 cash or check and $385 credit card ($10 processing fee). .
