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.

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi there, my name is Tony and MVPC's best guess is that I am a Schnauzer/Cairn Terrier mix. I’m a smaller fella but what I lack in size I make up for with my sweetness and spunk. I'm pretty smart too! When I arrived at MVPC I wasn't sure what manners even were. My foster family worked with me and I picked up my basic commands in no time at all. I do great with other dogs and while I love a good play session, I would prefer to have an older or not so rowdy playmate. I love to give hugs, am great in my crate and on my leash, love kids, good lap dog and have the cutest little prance when I get excited! What is not to LOVE??
ADOPTION FEE: $400 (All MVPC dogs are heartworm-tested and on prevention, completely vetted, spayed/neutered, microchipped, crate-trained and house-trained)
ADOPTER: Dog experience
BIRTHDAY: 11/02/2022
FENCE: Required (an electric fence is not an acceptable form of containment)
DOG FRIENDLY: Yes
DOGS IN HOME: Yes, prefer an older playmate
CATS: Yes, with supervision
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 $400 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 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!
