My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi! My name is Bumper! I came to MVPC with several other dogs all the way from Atlanta, GA! We all had varying medical issues and MVPC loves helping nice dogs who just need a bit of time to heal or some great medical attention to get healthy. I am perfectly healthy, but I am blind. Blind dogs are great dogs, but they can linger in the shelter, so I am SO glad to get my puppy self out of there!! My other senses, smell and hearing, are pretty strong, and I have been known to feel with my mouth too. My foster home is making sure I know that only applies to toys.

I am only about a year old and am a friendly, happy guy!! Being a total big puppy, toys and activities are the BEST!! I may be blind, but once I learn the lay of the land, I am perfectly fine. You wouldn’t even know it! I am very active and playful, and get along with the dogs and cats in my home (though I can play rough). I need a family who will take me on adventures (walks are the best!) and continue to ensure I am always on my best behavior (being good is the best too!).

ADOPTION FEE: $200 (All MVPC dogs are heartworm-tested, completely vetted, spayed/neutered, microchipped, crate-trained and house-trained)

A $100 hold fee is required for approved applications and will be applied to the full adoption fee at the time of the home visit.
ADOPTER: Dog experience, another dog in the home preferred since I will take my cues from them!
BIRTHDAY: Estimated 1 year
FENCE: Required (an electric fence is not an acceptable form of containment)
DOGS: Yes
CATS: Yes, I want to play with them, but am easily redirected
CHILDREN: Yes, 10 and over

INQUIRIES: ALL inquiries begin with a submitted adoption application, which is found on our website, www.miamivalleypitcrew.com. We do not adopt to individuals under the age of 25. We prefer male/female dog pairings unless both already reside in the home.

DO NOT: USE THE PETFINDER CONTACT/ADOPT BUTTONS--we are unable to monitor those and you will not receive a response.

PLEASE NOTE: We are volunteer based and a home visit is required; we have a two-hour adoption radius from Kettering, OH for our adult dogs and 75 miles for our puppies. Exceptions for our ADULT dogs only, though rare, may be made on a case-by-case basis but we must be able to do a home visit. Thank you for your understanding!
