Story
She is six years old (January). I have had her since she was 3 months. She grew up around kids and cats and one other dog. She is very energetic and still plays like a puppy. She often forgets her own size and wants to cuddle as she did when she was a puppy. Looking for someone who will be able to be active with her/keep up with her energy. A loving home.

She is 2 years old (December 11). I have had her since she was 3 months old. She’s very energetic is very playful. Loves tug-a-war. She’s quiet, and likes to lounge around. She’s listens well and is patient. Looking for someone who is patient, since she’s still young. Someone who has the resources to finish training her. Someone loving and willing to cuddle with her.

Story
Meet Raven! This pretty girl is a 3 year old Pitbull mix. She was adopted from here as a puppy but sadly, she was returned recently for not getting along with the cat in the home. Raven is the happiest girl! She is content and happy no matter what she is doing. Whether she is snuggled up in her bed with her favorite toy or playing in the play yard, she is always happy. She also loves to share her toys and will bring it to you. Raven is well mannered but needs to work on her jumping a little bit. She also keeps her kennel very clean. We are unsure how she is with other dogs but all dogs in the home will need to be present to meet her. She can’t be in a home with cats. Raven will be available for adoption tomorrow at 12pm and is eager to meet you.

Story
Name: Aspen BoyBreed: Pittie MixDOB: 5/21/24Good with kids: YESGood with dogs: YESGood with cats: YESFoster location: Fitchburg, WIAdoption fee: $325Fun Bio: Hi, I’m Aspen! I am a lively 8 month old puppy and I'm still learning a lot about the world but I'm picking up on things quickly! I'm mostly potty trained but you may want to expect some accidents as I transition into your home. My foster parents put bells on the back door so I can politely tell them I need to go out but I haven't mastered them just yet. Due to my past living with an aggressive dog, I have learned to resource guard my favorite person (not food or toys) but my foster mom believes I can be trained out of this behavior because I'm so smart and sweet otherwise. We highly recommend a home with no dogs or only one other dog but they should stay mostly separated or highly supervised until my resource guarding is under control. I've never met a cat before. I really love to play fetch (but will eventually destroy the tennis ball). I get super wiggly and love to bounce around when I want something. When it's time to settle down I'm a master at cuddling and I'm very good in a crate at night.  If interested in a pet from us please fill out the adoption application that is located on our website.  We process applications in the order in which they are received.  We will likely not respond to interest emails regarding puppies and/or kittens, we get so many "interest" emails that we simply do not have the time to respond to each one.  We always recommend crate training, positive reinforcement training, exercise, playtime, and a regular schedule for potty breaks when bringing a new dog/puppy into your home. Adjustment takes time for both you and your new family member, so remember to be patient and enjoy this new and exciting time!Included in the adoption fee are age appropriate vaccinations, heartworm testing, deworming, spay or neuter surgery, and microchip. ##2294550##
