Betty (Empty-Nester)

American Pit Bull Terrier

Female, Adult
Marietta, OH
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Betty is a beautiful 3-1/2 year old female American Pit Bull Terrier mix who was brought to the HSOV on August 2, 2023 by a Good Samaritan who found her on Brandy Drive in Marietta Ohio. Betty was accompanied by her best friend Veronica who is most likely her sister. Neither Betty nor Veronica were wearing a collar, and they were not microchipped. Betty has a black short smooth coat with an over-sized white bib on her chest, a long tail, and a pretty face with a narrow white stripe on her forehead, a chubby muzzle, and short floppy ears. Betty was 'in a family way' when she entered our shelter and is very pregnant. We anticipate that she will be giving birth to several babies in the near future. Her bestie/sister Veronica is the self-appointed mid-wife since she is always as close to Betty as possible. Betty weighs 75 lbs. Thanks to HSOV Volunteer Tracy Moore for taking Betty & Veronica outdoors (together of course) so that they could have updated glamour photos taken on August 11th. We had taken preliminary photos in their kennel a few days after they arrived, and they were snuggled up close to each other on their large blanket-covered kuranda bed. We had late-breaking news soon after we posted Betty's Petfinder 'baby bump' photos on the evening of August 13, 2023 and will include a birth announcement: Betty gave birth to six healthy puppies. All of the babies and momma Betty are doing well ... And "Aunt Veronica" is also doing well. UPDATE: Four of Betty's babies survived but, sadly, two of the puppies passed away during the month of September 2023. Her four remaining puppies (Curie, Einstein, Franklin, and Newton) have thrived and are happy, playful youngsters who will soon be leaving for their new homes. Betty has been separated from her puppies, and she is ready to begin the next chapter of her life. She will be spayed in the near future and will soon be looking for a fabulous home of her very own. Betty was spayed on September 9, 2024 and was also given rabies vaccine.

Story
Veronica is a beautiful 3-1/2 year old female American Pit Bull Terrier mix who was brought to the HSOV on August 2, 2023 by a Good Samaritan who found her on Brandy Drive in Marietta Ohio. Veronica was accompanied by her best friend Betty who is most likely her sister. Neither Veronica nor Betty were wearing a collar, and they were not microchipped. Veronica has a black short smooth coat with a small patch of white on her chest and belly, a long tail, and a sweet face with dark brown eyes, a black button nose on her slender muzzle, and large floppy ears. Veronica & Betty have been kept together since entering our shelter since they depend upon each other for companionship and a sense of security. Betty was 'in a family way' when she entered our shelter and is very pregnant. We anticipate that she will be giving birth to several babies in the near future. Veronica is the self-appointed mid-wife since she is always as close to Betty as possible. Veronica weighs 50 lbs. She doesn't appear to have been accustomed to walking on a leash but made a noble effort with her best friend Betty by her side. Veronica has a gentle, rather shy, personality. Thanks to HSOV Volunteer Tracy Moore for taking Veronica & Betty outdoors (together of course) so that they could have updated glamour photos taken on August 11th. We had taken preliminary photos in their kennel a few days after they arrived, and they were snuggled up close to each other on their large blanket-covered kuranda bed. In compliance with the Ohio Revised Code, Veronica was held for three days so that her family would have an opportunity to reclaim her with proof of ownership .. But nobody called or came looking for Veronica or Betty. Veronica will be spayed before being adopted by her new family. UPDATE: We had late-breaking news soon after we posted Betty's Petfinder 'baby bump' photos on the evening of August 13, 2023 and will include a birth announcement: Betty gave birth to six healthy puppies. All of the babies and momma Betty are doing well ... And "Aunt Veronica" is also doing well. Update .. Veronica was spayed on August 6, 2024 and was also given rabies vaccine.

Kim (Spayed)

American Pit Bull Terrier Hound (Unknown Type)

Female, Adult
Marietta, OH
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Kim is a beautiful 2-year old female Pit Bull Terrier/Hound mix who was brought to the HSOV on September 19, 2023 during the overnight- or early morning hours and placed in one of our outside kennels near the front of the shelter building. We don't know if she was an owner surrender or if perhaps someone found her and left her there for her well-being. Kim was not wearing a collar, and she was not microchipped. This gorgeous girl has a black-and-white short smooth coat, white paws, a long tail, and an adorable symmetrically-marked face with soulful brown eyes, a milk chocolate nose, and short floppy ears. Kim's coat has a subtle dark brown shading which is noticeable when she is in the bright sunshine. Kim was understandably a very frightened girl after being left alone in an unfamiliar place with people that she did not yet realize were her new best friends who were giving her unconditional love. These glamour photos of Kim were taken on September 19th 2023 when HSOV Volunteer/Board Member Tracy Moore accompanied her outdoors late in the afternoon. Tracy has gained Kim's trust and kept looking to her for guidance and reassurance while she posed for pictures. Kim loved hearing soft 'baby talk' and hearing what a 'good girl' she was. Kim had the sweetest yet most heartbreaking facial expressions when she looked at Tracy and our photographer with sadness in her eyes. Kim weighs 67 lbs. She didn't appear to have had any walking-on-a-leash experience but she made a noble effort thanks to encourage from Tracy (and even 'jogged' in step with Tracy as they headed back inside the shelter to her kennel). In compliance with the Ohio Revised Code, Kim was held for three days so that her family would have an opportunity to reclaim her. Sadly nobody called or came looking for this beautiful girl. UPDATE: We temporarily listed Kim as 'Special Needs' since she tested positive for Lyme Disease and Ehrlichia (tick borne infections) on September 21, 2023 and was given given antibiotics. Kim is negative for Heartworm and Anaplasma. Kim was spayed on October 1, 2024 and was also given rabies vaccine.
