Hi there, my name is Vanessa and I'm about a year old. I'm a really pretty young girl. If you have seen my pictures my coat is a reversed brindle. I had DNA test, and it summed up I am a Pittie but mixture of many other dog breeds. What does that mean? I'm your All-American Mutt but I'm a smart All-American Mutt. But my foster Mom calls me silly and a beauty. It's hard to tell by my pictures but as I mentioned my coat is a reversed brindle. I look big in the pictures, but I am not. I only weigh 42#s. I'm done growing unless of course I get lots of treats which what dog doesn't like. I was found as a stray when I was a puppy. I didn't know where my home was, so the AC Handlers brought me to a TN shelter. I got my Freedom Ride from Treasured Animal Rescue. Boy! That was a long ride. So many doggies & cats drive for like forever up North. I saw my foster Mom when she opened the van, and I wasn't scared. I knew right then my future is going to be much better than what I had in TN. I'm in a foster home that has other foster dogs that are close to my age or size, and we play all day long. We sleep in our own crates and I'm a good girl and don't make a mess. I will give out a yip or a bark when I need to go potty. I love getting my food in my crate and I look for more when the other dogs are done. Who would have thought being a foster doggie I would be so pampered. When I'm inside hanging out in the dog room I've learned to nudge the bell. When you ask about me my foster Mom can tell you about that bell. There's a bell hanging by the sliding glass door, and I jump up to hit it or nudge it with my head. I'm signally to my foster Mom I got to go outside to do my business. There are also cats that live here. The resident cats are very dog savvy so they know how to respond to a dog like me who once in a while will bark at them. The foster kitties are learning from the resident cats that dogs bark and speaking of my bark - it's loud! I'm normally a quiet girl but when I have to tell you something, like go outside to do my business or I see the Mail Lady I will bark. I know SIT, WAIT, COME and give PAW. My best command is "Vanessa, be pretty". Gees, that's a no brainer. I need to work on no JUMP. That's a hard one. I like to spend my day hanging outside but if it's hot out I want to be indoors or under a tree with shade. I like to find one of many doggie bones and enjoy the fresh air with my bone. I don't mind if the other dogs take my bone away or sit next to me. I like to share. I will get zoomies. My foster Mom calls it my 2-minute Zoomie and then I am a couch potato. After my zoomie is done, I then chill out. I like to lounge around on the couch or by your feet. If I'm really, really lucky - on your lap. I like it on the days TAR goes to our adoption events, and we go to a pet store and there are kids there. Oh boy, do I like kids. I love it when the kids give me all the attention. Some kids, my foster Mom is really cautious and it's not because I'm mean but because I just want to give them so many kisses I might jump. I am a jumper. I know, it's a bad habit so maybe little kids I might need a caution but boy, you get me an older boy with a ball; we will be like peas & carrots! Hee hee! While I wait for my forever family to come meet me, I play with the other foster dogs. Some of these dogs got really lucky and they got adopted! I'm so happy for them but sad because I'm losing my friends to play with. So, you know what my foster Mom does for me? She takes me to doggie daycare once a week so I can play with other dogs. Oh my gosh! Can you believe they have a thing for dogs to play all day with so many dogs?!? I make new friends every week! I really like the employees at this doggie daycare and when they see me, they say "here comes silly Vanessa" and I get so many butt scratches! One day I am going to have a forever family of my own. While I wait for my family I will play, chew on a bone and go to doggie daycare and meet new friends. When I meet my forever family we can go for a walk, and I will show how well I listen and walk on a leash, but I can do better. I do pull. Maybe when you bring me to your house, I will have my own doggie bed, or I can curl up on your lap when you watch TV. I will always be your loyal pup because you chose me, and I promise to make you laugh. Can't wait to meet you! Vanessa Vanessa is located in our foster home in Aurora.

**Note on fleas** Those sneaky little critters can hitch a free ride into your home aboard another pet, person, or even rodent, so it is important to make sure your new pet is protected. Depending on the time frame your adoptable pet has been in our foster care it might have had just 1 dose – which is not enough. Please consult with your Vet on putting your new adoptable pet on yearly flea/tick prevention – even if they are an indoor pet.
Adoption fees:
