PLEASE SEE CONTACT INFO BELOW. Homer is a lovable, snuggly pit with a lot of energy still at 7 years old. He knows basic commands (sit, lay down, stay, come, shake), is used to leashed walks, and loves cuddling on the couch or bed with his humans. He also enjoys giving kisses, scratches behind his ear, belly rubs and playing with toys (although you’ll need indestructible toys haha). Homer is used to being home during the day while we go to work, and he doesn’t have any issues being left alone during the workday. He is up to date on shots and neutered. We can provide a dog bed, food, bowls, leash, etc.    Homer would need to be the only animal in the home (dog reactive most of the time after 10 minutes or so of meeting but can pass them on the street during walks unless they lunge at him), no cats (or would likely be fine with a cat that keeps to itself) and no kids due to resource guarding and a bite incident. The two bites were not large and required glue but not stitches and were related to resource guarding.    A potential adopter would need to have knowledge (or willingness to learn) of resource guarding and the capacity to properly manage it. However, Homer is a sweet dog 99% of the time but just needs an environment suitable to not trigger his resource guarding, which I believe he will thrive in. We have done training through K9 Koncepts, which is supposed to be open for the entirety of Homer’s life, so we could potentially transfer that over to the adopter for free, if interested and after contacting K9 Koncepts to make sure that is a possibility.If you are interested in adopting Homer, please contact:Erica.  email: Erica.cranford11@gmail.com  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 5, 2024, 5:13 pm

Story
NAME: Romeo BREED: Pit Bull Mix BIRTHDAY: 2016 WEIGHT: 60lbs ADOPTION FEE: $250 &#226&#128&#139 Sweet and handsome Romeo sure lives up to his name, though we're going to make sure he has a much happier ending than his namesake! This big goofy hunk loves to snuggle, play games, go for long walks... just a perfect gentleman who already has basic obedience training and wonderful house manners. Romeo loves to meet new people and is very polite with children. He does well in a crate but seems trustworthy unsupervised. He is healthy, easy-going, and lots of fun! &#226&#128&#139 In his previous home, Romeo lived with two other dogs and a cat until his owner was evicted and left them behind (this was down south, so no charges were filed). In the shelter, Romeo was used as a tester dog and played in the outdoor play groups daily. We have not evaluated him with other animals here, so as always we recommend slow and smart introductions and fully supervised interactions in his new home. As an only pet in his foster home, Romeo has been quick to make human friends and would be fine as a solo pet (as long as his people are looking for a Velcro dog!) He would love a fenced yard but could be fine without one as long as he gets his daily walks. If you're looking for a fun and easy addition to your family, look no further: but soft, 'tis Romeo!

Toys make her so happy every time she sees one; her whole back end wiggles! Charlene prefers to be the center of your world and would like to be the only fur child so she can always stay in the spotlight. This girl will surely win over your heart!What`s Next?

My name is Sir Roc and yes I am as regal as that sounds. I weigh roughly 85lbs. I am a sweet handsome senior man that loves being outside, getting cuddles, and spending time with my favorite people. I am a little nervous here in the shelter but I warm up quickly and once I do, I like getting booty rubs and giving gentle kisses. I am technically classified as a senior but don`t let my age fool you. I love being outside, going for long walks and being active. I have quickly gathered the hearts of almost every staff member that works here and when you meet me, you will quickly find out why. I am just a special soul. If you like what you have read, read below for how to meet me. I have lived with children and cats in my foster homes, but I would be more comfortable being the only dog in the home. What`s Next?
