Brandy

Pit Bull Terrier

Female, 2 yrs 1 mo

Paramus, NJ

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet our sweet Brandy. Brandy loves life and knows how to make the most out of it. That being said, there are three things she especially loves: kids, playing with empty water jugs, and other dogs. Brandy is approximately 2 years old, and 60 pounds. She is spayed, fully vetted, microchipped, and heartworm negative. She would probably do best in a home without cats. She isn’t looking to hurt them, but she is curious about them and wants to play so she chases them. Brandy loves kids and all people. She gets along well with other dogs of all-sizes. She loves toys, water, and taking baths. She’s housebroken. She knows her name, understands sit, stay, and come, and is generally well-behaved. She’s strong and playful. She loves car rides. The best-fit family for Brandy would be an active family that goes hiking. She’d also make a great running buddy. She would love going on long walks and would really appreciate a fenced yard where she can run and play. Brandy's back story: Brandy was dumped out on the streets and left to fend for herself. A sweet lady found her and decided to bring her home. According to her, Brandy is a sweetheart. But she’s also a strong and energetic girl and her finder is a lady in her mid-70s who can't give her what she needs. So she asked us to find Brandy the best home possible for her. She is currently in TX but will be transported to NJ when adopted.

Wendell

Pit Bull Terrier

Male, Adult

Westwood, NJ

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

This cutie named Wendell is about 4 years old and ready to move on to bigger and better things. This sweet boy was originally found as a stray but somehow no one came to claim him after almost a year. Peace4Paws saw what a special boy he was and stepped in to find him a home. At the shelter, he was a favorite making lots of friends both human and canine alike. Wendell is incredibly dog friendly and would get along great with another dog in the home, however a low traffic household with older kids/teens (if any) would be best. His favorite pastimes are receiving massages, walks and just sitting in the shade to beat the heat. This already neutered and 40lb boy is so ready to find a love of his own. To apply to adopt Wendell, go to www.peace4paws.org/adoption-application from a computer or laptop. Together let's give Wendell the life he's always dreamed of.If you have specific adoption or foster questions, please email: judy.atchison@yahoo.com THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN RESCUING A DOG!

He’s been making great progress with potty training and is ready to learn more as he grows.
