My story

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

Hello! I am Drax. I came to the shelter as a stray, but my story is a curious one. I was found with other stray pitties, all ranging different ages, all in rough shape. It doesn`t appear that we were in good care before, many of us are underweight, shy of people, and in desperate need of love. I am very sweet and gentle, but need a lot of time to warm up to new people. I would do best with an experienced dog owner to help me build confidence and feel brave to take on the day. Nothing else is known about my past, but it seems like it wasn`t a good one. I am looking forward to a fresh start and a lifetime full of love. Come meet me today!


Few can resist a puppy. These adorable, soft bundles of energy are similar to four-legged children with tails. And like children, puppies need a lot of time, care, love, and patience. A puppy will depend on you for frequent and regular feedings and walks, for guidance and training, and for much of your time and your love. Before you plunge into puppy parenthood, make sure to research! There are many rewards to caring for a puppy, but there are also many requirements. Puppy classes are highly recommended for socialization and a positive transition into your home. Puppies love to learn how to be the best dog for your family!

If this dog has been successful in our play groups it is not a guarantee that a dog will be social with other dogs in their home or in public settings. Dogs are individuals and have personality conflicts, just like us. Play groups do not guarantee that territorial or resource guarding issues will not surface in the home. While play groups do help us get to know the dog`s better, once they are adopted their new environments and new relationships will influence their behavior in ways we cannot predict.

The Adoption Fee Includes:
- initial canine distemper combination vaccination
- first worming or stool check
- rabies vaccination (for animals over 3 months of age)
