Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi, my name is Rhys! I came to MVPC from Atlanta with four other dogs on Valentine’s Day, so we are all named after love! I was a stray that was never reclaimed, and I don’t get it. Do you not see how beautiful and awesome I am? I have confidence in spades and am described as a feisty, fun redhead. I am a high energy girl who loves to keep busy. Walking, hiking, rollerblading, or lots of backyard play sound wonderful to me. When we're done, I'm also very interested in a good snuggle because I WUV my hoomans! If you're still busy, I'll keep myself occupied with my chew toys. I also like other dogs, and cats, after proper introductions. I do play a little rough, but I'm learning. I'm also doing great on my basic commands, but I can be a little stubborn so I need a family committed to keeping me on the straight and narrow. I'm loving my life, and just need a family to enjoy it with me. I promise to keep you laughing, and loving, with my silly self.
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
BIRTHDAY: Estimated 2-4 years
FENCE: Required (an electric fence is not an acceptable form of containment)
DOG FRIENDLY: Yes, with proper introductions
DOGS IN HOME: Male, can be solo
CATS: Yes
KIDS: Yes, over 8
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.
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!
