Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
I found a new home! Plenty of my friends are looking for one too. Check out other pets at this shelter, or start a new search.

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi there. I’m Marcus! I am the last of the “M” litter born at MVPC after my mother was found by a Good Samaritan. I’m a little shy at first, but once I get to know you, I’ll be your loyal companion for life. I’m gentle and mellow, preferring quiet cuddles to rowdy games, but I love a good play session. I am a really smart guy if I do say so myself. I love learning new things, especially if it involves treats! Despite my gentle nature and shy exterior, I have a brave heart. I am waiting patiently for my family to take me home so we can discover the sweetness of life together. Why should you adopt me? Well, because I’m ready to give all my love to a family that will cherish me.
ADOPTION FEE: $175 (All MVPC dogs are heartworm-tested and on prevention, completely vetted, spayed/neutered, microchipped, crate-trained and house-trained)
ADOPTER: Dog experience
BIRTHDAY: 31 Dec 22
FENCE: Required (an electric fence is not an acceptable form of containment)
DOG FRIENDLY: Yes!
DOGS IN HOME: Another dog in the home is required for socialization
CATS: Yes
CHILDREN: Yes, 8 and over
I AM READY TO GO HOME!! If you are approved to be my new family, a hold fee of $100 is required and will be applied to the full adoption fee of $175 when MVPC comes to visit your house with me!
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 INQUIRY/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!
