Story
Blossom is a Blue Nose Pitbull Terrier - no category exists above. > Blossom is 90-lbs. > She is 2-1/2 Years old > She is spayed and up to date on ALL shots Radio dog collar and radio adjustable perimeter fence. Wire crate with waterproof cover and thick insulated bed. > She is very enthusiastic about attention, playing and running. Her enthusiasm can lead to her jumping up and down. She will jump on children and doesn't know her size, she LOVES people. In our opinion, she needs a large fenced in yard or outdoor area to run and exercise. She needs an active family and lots of room to be herself! We travel a lot and have to confine her to immediate back patio, which isn't fair to her! A new good tactical dog harness and leash and she will walk nice with you! The one she has is getting worn but can show you if you come to meet her!

My name is Grayson and I am 7 years old. I've been with mom since 4 months old. She's taught many tricks Because i'm smart! I love carrots and potatoes for treats. I am food motivated. I love to go places, Play with my Is fuzzy ball, Play catch with my tennis ball. I love attention. I give kisses, love nips when I trust you.. I have lots of energy but also can chill. I'm great with other dogs/kids. I recently moved from house to apartment mom divorcing. Apartment life is not working mom is heartbroken. I need someone Who has a house and yard, that is Non Negotiable. Mom gives a Month of my food, grooming care, Beds, toys, clothes, Harness, leash, carseat cover, seat belt, ALL supplies come with me. I am not crate trained, No crates they give me anxiety. I Would benefit with someone who's home alot or another dog to help with separation anxiety. Mom can no longer care for me and is looking for me to be with a great new mom/dad/family. Can you Be my forever home?

Story
Sadie is a 6-year-old, 85-pound improbable mix of German Shepherd and Shar Pei. This is a confirmed and not speculative breed mix. Go figure. Sadie is not the most attractive dog we have. I get this. This is the dog equivalent of what happens when you cross a supermodel and a rock star. Genetics when only one parent is leggy and gorgeous is sometimes less kind to the offspring and you end up with awkwardness. That's where we are here - tiny head with strange ears on a giant body with a little tail. When she runs, she kind of resembles a demented velociraptor and she is all awkward angles. I am sure you are reading this and are going to tell me how pretty she is and while I appreciate that and love her for what she is, this dog next to a golden retriever is going to get zero attention. It is an absolute fact that people are shallow and it's why weather forecasters on your news shows are always wearing skin-tight dresses and are not 55-year-old, size 18 women who are doing the actual forecasting. Sadie is a very good girl and she deserves a home. Sadie has done well in a home with other dogs, but she prefers they be mellow and not jump on her. She is not good with cats and she would eat them. Sadie is impeccably well-trained and she knows a lot of commands. She is housebroken and well-mannered and she is a charming dog one-on-one. She is also a powerful athlete that has more in common with her German Shepherd side of things and she loves her walks. She needs 20 minutes of hard running in a back yard daily and then she's happy. She is full of kisses and does not know a stranger as she loves all people. Given how strong this dog is, kids over 12 would be fine. This is a fantastic dog for the right home.
