Story

Explorer was born November 26, 2022. He is a well behaved, friendly dog. He learns quickly and trains easily. He is friendly and as his name implies, he likes to Explore. He loves to play and is good at entertaining himself. He is not a jumper, climber or digger. He is crate acclimated. He does not get along with non-familial male dogs. He has been neutered now so this may help. He does fine with other dogs. He does good with all people. He is not good with chickens or cats at this time. He needs a secure play area. I would be happy to bring him for a play date. He’s up to date on shots.

Chubs was born January 1, 2024. A New Years puppy! She is a happy, healthy puppy. She is extremely playful as most puppies. I would anticipate she will weigh about 40 pounds when mature based on her parents. She is crate acclimated. As a pit bull, she will need a large secure area to play. I would be happy to bring her for a play date. Her mother, Mighty, is up for adoption as well if you are interested in both. Her name is Chubs because she looks chubby but when you pick her up, she is pure muscle. She is up to date on required vaccinations.

Mighty was born November 26, 2022. She is a high energy dog, small but Mighty! She is well built and extremely athletic. She would be good at, and enjoy, competitions. She is very loving and highly intelligent. She will need a large secure area with things or people to play with to get all of her energy out. Unless monitored, a fenced area will need to be secure and tall. She is very clever and enjoys jumping and climbing. She is not a digger or runner. She always stays nearby but she likes the challenge of the jump/climb. She is crate acclimated. She had a puppy on January 1, 2024. The puppy, Chubs, is also listed if you are interested in both. I will be happy to bring her for a play date. She has all her vaccines.
