Story
Chief is a kind hearted dog that needs a home where he gets a lot of love and attention from an experienced handler. He loves to go on runs, loves to play fetch with the ball & loves to be loved. We wish we are able to give him all the love and attention, but as we are new parents to our first child, it feels as though it’s un fair to him that we aren’t able to give him the attention he deserves and knows he needs. Chief is a great dog, and is sooo loyal to his people. I hope we are able to find a home for him that’s just as loyal to him.

Story
I got Blu when he was 2 months old during the pandemic in 2019. He is a super sweet American pit bull terrier. He will be 6 years old next year. Blu has been neutered and has had months of obedience training. He knows basic commands like sit, stay, come, stop, go to your room. He is a house dog but I want to find him a new home with a backyard and someone who will walk him regularly. Ideally he needs a playmate. I havent tried him with a cat but I was considering getting one to keep him company. Blu is still very playful and needs somewhere to run around. I love my dog and it is hard to give him up but my schedule has become busier and I may need to travel more. I will not give him up if he cant be placed in a stable environment with people that will take care of him and keep him engaged.

Story
Kelso is a healthy, affectionate, and energetic 2-3 year old, approx. 67 lb pup. He is housetrained, neutered, and friendly — he’s working on his polite greetings. His favorite activities are hiking, playing tug, laying in the sun, and cuddling on the couch. Kelso has been in his home in Oakland, CA for a year and a half, but is struggling living in the city and needs a stronger handler. Kelso walks well on a loose leash on hikes and in less busy areas, but experiences leash reactivity on busy streets and with some other dogs. His current owner has completed several training courses with him, and he’s extremely food motivated and eager to learn. He knows plenty of obedience and tricks, and requires an owner committed to continuing his training. He already knows lots of tricks, including putting his own toys away, closing cabinets on command, and stretching on the command “do yoga.” Kelso is an energetic, social dog who has experience coexisting with other dogs and would thrive in a home with attentive owners, outdoor space, and another dog or two that he can roughhouse with (no cats as he tends to chase small animals or young kids due to his exuberance). ? Contact Elana for more info and to meet Kelso: elanatm@gmail.com California Pit bull Rescue is an official 501(c)(3) and requires an adoption application and $200 donation fee for all adoptions.October 24, 2024, 1:31 pm

Meet Arcee - the super fun, outgoing adoptable pup! She is currently fostered with two big dogs and they play really well. She also has a kitty in the home and is very respectful. She loves to play with other dogs and humans. Arcee is really smart, friendly and the life of the party. She has met tons of children and does well with them too. She really is a perfect, smart, affection gal! We recently did a DNA test on her and she is a mix of 4 breeds - American Staffordshire Terrier, American Pit Bull Terrier, Belgian Malinois and German Shepherd. Arcee has been diagnosed with Megaesophagus and requires livelong medication ($15/month) and feeding  meals upright - her adoption comes with her custom Bailey Chair. She really is a special gal and would love to be added to your family! Reach out and schedule a time to meet Miss Arcee today. Arcee's adoption fee has been covered by the Upright Canine Brigade. Additionally, any medical expenses related to her condition will be covered by her rescue for the rest of her life.  California Pit bull Rescue is an official 501(c)(3) and requires an adoption application and $200 donation fee for all adoptions.November 6, 2024, 6:41 pm

Story
Seamus (shay-mus) is a one-of-a-kind blockhead who is ready to give his heart to the right person or family. He is in a foster home with lots of dogs and does well with everyone. He’s shown that he is super smart, friendly, playful, emotionally in-tune with his human friends, and a supreme cuddle bug. Seamus is crate-trained, knows basic commands, and walks nicely on-leash. He can be excitable in the way he wants to give all his love at once, but is learning to control his impulses as he continues to decompress in his new structured environment. Seamus is 6 years old, 70ish pounds and healthy. California Pit bull Rescue is an official 501(c)(3) and requires an adoption application and $200 donation fee for all adoptions.October 24, 2024, 1:31 pm
