Story
Are you looking for a soul dog?  Because Charlie is looking for his soul person. This sweet pittie mix is close to a year old and currently weighs just under 45lb. Found as a skinny stray of 38lb, Charlie is continues to gain weight and is likely to be ~50lb at his ideal size. He will be adopted up to date on his core vaccines, neutered, and microchipped. Personality: Charlie is a love bug who can play hard and then partake in a cozy nap!  He has tricked his foster mom into napping on several occassions by snuggling up and being adorable. Charlie knows how to sit, takes redirection/correction well, and is eager to learn how to please his people. He has had minimal accidents in his foster home and keeps his crate clean. Given these skills, we feel he'd make a great dog for.a single person, a couple, or a family with older kids. (There have been zero incidents of aggression with Charlie while in his foster home. However, given his exuberance for life, we do not think a home with young kids is ideal.)  His home layout: Charlie is not a vocal dog, so he could live in a townhouse, duplex, or single-family home environment. He'd also be fine at home crated during a standard length work day. We do not feel an apartment would be good for Charlie unless he has sufficient space to run and play. Relatedly, a fenced in yard is preferred but not required. Like most young dogs, Charlie would benefit from training. We are seeking an adopter who is willing to continue training so Charlie can further his socialization, his interactions with other dogs (he is often so excited to see them that he comes in a little hot!), and learn other useful skills. Overall, Charlie is a happy young boy who brings fun, sweetness, and love to his environment. If you think this sounds like a good match for you, please apply for him today at pawsacrosspittsburgh.com/adopt. Paws Across Pittsburgh, KL#16182. ##2319982##

Story
Hi, I'm Chance! I'm just the goodest boy--I love everything and everyone. I am what my fosters call a "velcro dog". I do not like to leave their side. I know some tricks--I know how to sit, beg, lay down, and stay. I walk extremely well on a leash and am house trained. The only main thing we're working on is learning to use the crate--man I hate that thing. I'm a 3 year old pit bull mix and weigh in at 70 lbs-- I'm what some call a big boy. Don't let my size fool you though, I am a gentle giant. I haven't met a dog, kid, or cat I didn't like, I've even been around ducks and liked them too.  I am up to date on all my vaccines and I am neutered--oh and I have one of those microchip things that will help if I'm ever lost too. If you think I'd be a good fit for your family, apply for me today. Change will be available for adoption with Paws Across Pittsburgh on or after March 1 2025.

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

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Ghetti is a 2-3 year old American Bully. She was found running stray with another dog in WV. Spaghetti AKA Ghetti is as cute as they come! She's about 35-40lbs of beautiful bully. She does have some quirks(mainly her fearfulness of men and general shyness). BUT, she has made great strides since being in foster and we have every ounce of confidence that she will continue to flourish in the right home. An added bonus is that she comes with FREE ongoing support from the rescue's certified behavior consultant. In foster, she has become extremely close with the male in the home after her intial fearful behavior of him. The key with her is time, patience, space and understanding. She's really just learning about humans and it's important to continue to make her feel safe. Once she feels safe and trusts you, WATCH OUT! She will crawl into your lap and cuddle like you've never seen. She may even show you her goofy side which is so fun to see! Ghetti may need several meet and greets if you are male or have a male in your home, so if you're impatient or pushy DON'T APPLY. She would do best in a home with a calm male dog or as the only dog, no cats or small animals, respectful kids aged 10 and up. Her ideal home would be on the calm/quiet side. She really loves walks, so if you like walking or hiking in areas with low traffic and noise...she would love to be your hiking partner! She will need someone that isn't scared to advocate for her...meaning that you will need to be able to tell people, "Hey, please give her some space, she's shy." ...or put her in a crate with something yummy if you're having people over and you feel she might not be comfortable. Someone that is willing to always put Ghetti's feelings and best interest first, so that she can continue to learn to trust the world would be amazing! She is not a dog park dog nor would she enjoy outings with people everywhere. Some of her favorite things include: walks in the woods, food, SNUGGLES, treat puzzles and confidence building games, couch potato-ing and car rides. She does well in her crate and hasn't had any potty training issues. If you think you can be an advocate to protect her and her feelings and love her little hippo self, SHE WILL GIVE YOU THAT LOVE BACK TENFOLD! She is special and deserves someone special...reach out if you think that someone special is you!  ##1541407##

Winter

American Pit Bull Terrier

Female, 8 yrs 6 mos
Pittsburgh, PA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Winter, a stunning white dog with a heart as pure as her coat. Winter is deaf, which means she navigates the world a bit differently, relying on visual cues and vibrations to understand her surroundings. Having a deaf dog can be a rewarding experience-communication is often through hand signals, visual aids, and gentle touch. Winter's care includes keeping her environment consistent and ensuring she feels secure. She is sweet, loves cuddles, and is eager to connect and share her affection. At 8 years old, she has some medical needs typical of dogs her age, which our adoptions team would be happy to speak with you about. If you're ready to embrace the unique joys of having a deaf dog, Winter is excited to be your loyal and loving friend!

Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Rue is a 1.5y/o spayed female bully breed mix. She has been staying with a foster while working on some dog reactivity and mouthiness for about 7 months now. Both of these behaviors have improved greatly, with the mouthiness being completely solved! Rue’s favorite thing is soft places to lay and she often digs herself little nests. She is curious and fun loving, food motivated, and willing to learn! She struggles with having accidents in her crate, but she is improving with this every day. She would not be a good fit with other dogs. She can be known to chase cats, but gives up quickly if scolded and if the cat is dog savvy. She is up to date on vaccines and flea and tick preventative. She comes with her own collar and leash, as well as a few of her favorite toys and a lifetime of support from her foster if needed!
