We are looking for a loving home for a 4 year old Pitbull. The family I am helping has had this poor baby in a cage for 3 years. Please help me re-home him. He is a sweetheart with a lot of energy that loves playing. He hasn't had a chance to run and be happy until I volunteered to walk him. Please help me give him a new home and a better life! He deserves it

Bugsy is looking for his forever home! I’ve had the pleasure of fostering this good boy for the past few months after he wasn’t handling shelter life well. Bugsy had a lot of anxiety here at the shelter, so I had to go and help him. Outside of shelter life, Bugsy is no longer showing anxiety (unless there’s thunder) and has made himself at home . He is house trained and good on a leash. Hes a total foodie that loves treats. Hes always rolling over for belly rubs and enjoys a short game of fetch on nice days. We are working on his barking but he’s such a good boy I’m sure he’ll get there. Bugsy is such a sweet boy and deserves the best. Happy to answer any questions.

Honey is a very lovable pet to have. She’s been around for many of years however owner is not able to care for her at this time due to her own health issues. She is housebroken and very alert needs a loving home and lots of attention due to the fact that she feels as if she’s one of the kids.

** $ 530 in pledges for the rescue that pulls ** Meet Marshall, a sweet 8-year-old senior who was surrendered to the shelter with another dog when their owner could no longer care for them. His owner had him for 7 years and described him as active, noting that he enjoys running and chasing squirrels. Marshall has shown low to medium energy at the shelter, but based on his owner's notes, adopters should be prepared for him to possibly become a higher-energy pup in a home environment. He has had good meets with other dogs at the shelter, and while he previously lived with children, we recommend that any children in the home be over the age of 13. He will need to meet any children or other dogs in the home. Although he has been a bit confused and shut down since arriving, Marshall warms up once he gets to know you. He loves treats and butt scratches, and with a little time, we're hopeful his personality will continue to shine. Marshall is seeking placement with a rescue partner or adopter. BEHAVIOR: Per Volunteer 11/3/24: He was loose and wagging his tail when I approached his kennel. He's very easy on leash with just some slight pulling. When walking outside he got spooked by sudden noises like sirens or motorcycles. He took to me pretty quickly! Enjoyed Getting pets from me and had very loose body language. Chased after toys but didn't fetch them back. He was pretty active in the play yard for an older boy and enjoyed romping around! No issues going back in and we walked by a few other dogs and he remained very calm Per staff 10/31/24: Good walk, was very calm today. Per volunteer 10/28/24: For the first 15 minutes I spent with Marshall, he mostly ignored me. Instead, he focused on going to the bathroom and sniffing his environment. I tried to get his attention with treats. He would accept the treats I offered him, but he would then go back to sniffing around. After about 15 min of spending time together, he finally approached me for attention. Marshall allowed me to pet and scratch him all over, and he then would lean into me or nuzzle me for more attention. Marshall began to express a sweet, calm and gentle personality. He sat nicely for treats and ignored other dogs through the fence. Marshall walked at a slow pace and never pulled on the leash. He seems very housetrained. I had no issue leashing him to take him out of the kennel, and I had no problem returning him. Marshall is a wonderful boy and I enjoyed the time I spent with him. Per volunteer 10/27/24: Shy, playful. Very chill/low energy but is full of love. Per volunteer 10/20/24: Marshall is a little on the timid side. He was distracted by the smells and sounds and seemed nervous on our walk. I took him to a quieter area and he relaxed a bit but still was looking all around. He likes hot dogs and takes treats pretty well. He knows sit and will do so for some tasty treats. He enjoyed some chin scratches and I found out that he really likes butt scratches. He did good meeting a dog through the fence. 10/19/24 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION: KNOWN HISTORY: Owner surrender KENNEL PRESENTATION: Marshall was standing by the door just staring with neutral eyes and a stiff body. I tried to loosen him up with treats and baby talk but he ignored me and continued to stare forward. I reached in with the leash and put his head right through, coming out as soon as he was secured. LEASH SKILLS: Pulls minimally HANDLING: Marshall came into the eval room with a tense body and neutral face. He walked around the eval room sniffing and ignoring the handlers at first. He did not want to come up for treats or baby talk. With some time and the occasional touch, he allowed some more handling and even would solicit for booty rubs. He loves scratches and just like Sage he takes lots of time to warm up. He knows sit and paw, and will take treats nicely. He is a very kind and sweet boy and needs some treats and patience. He allowed most handling but did not like his toes being touched and pulled them away very quickly. PLAY: Minimal interest TOYS: Minimal interest MEDICAL: On 10/29, Marshall had an exam for his skin and ear issues, as well as having blood in his stool. He was bright, alert, and responsive, and allowed all handling needed for the exam. He only had mild debris in his ears, with a few scars, but no signs of skin infections or inflammation. He was coughing during the exam, but his lungs sounded clear. On 10/21, Marshall was diagnosed with an upper respiratory infection (URI) or "doggy cold and started on medication. On 10/28, his symptoms were worsening with concern for progression to pneumonia, so another medication was added. During his intake exam on 10/18, Marshall was 51 pounds, had mild dental calculus, and his eyes and nose were clear. His ears were inflamed, with waxy debris, and he had inflamed skin with thin fur. He was quiet, alert, and responsive during his exam.

Such a sweet and playful girl! She had several good dog meets. She met 3 different dogs and did great. Super wiggly play style, likes to gently jump up then lay down and do play bows. She took corrections from other dogs really well, one dog gave her a few grumbles and Shay would always give her more space when she did. Did great getting dressed up at the photoshoot and such a sweet friendly girl Per Volunteer 1/28/25: Such a sweet girl! She greeted me with a loose body and wagging tail and was very easy to leash. She pulls quite a bit on leash so would recommend a harness. Such a playful and high energy girl! She loves to play and LOVES squeaky toys. She loves to shake them around and squeak them. When she squeaked them she did play bows and got so excited! Pretty jumpy when she gets excited- she jumped up on me when she was playing but body was completely wiggly. Took pets from me over but much more interested in playing. She met a very small dog through the fence and was super playful! Did play bows, had a wiggly body and really just wanted to play. No issues going back into kennel, sweet gal! 01/28/2025 staff notes: Shay got out for some activity time today! She was easy to leash in kennel, and greeted me with soft eyes. She pulled a bit on our walk, but was so wiggly and excited when we got to the eval room! She greeted me with full body wiggles and wags, and then sniffed around the room curiously. She excitedly mouthed at a toy and brought it up to me. She was a lot of energy! She would jump into me with toys in her mouth, trying to get me to play. Shay really enjoyed fetch, and brought the toy back every time! She was a bit snatchy with them, and would sometimes try to snatch them back before I could throw them, but she was just very aroused and excited to be playing. Even after several minutes of fetch, she wanted to keep going! Overall, Shay is a super sweet, playful girl that loves her toys! 01/26/2025 staff notes: KENNEL PRESENTATION: Shay was at the front of the kennel with neutral dilated eyes and a wagging tail. I reached in with the leash and she sniffed it curiously. Once she felt comfortable she allowed easy leashing and came right out. LEASH SKILLS: Pulls minimally– nervous on leash, stopping to look around HANDLING : Shay is a ball of conflicted energy. She is a bit nervous but does very cute zoomies with her body curled for optimal distance. She is very affectionate and jumps up on my lap many times for attention. When I called her she came over with a wagging tail but sniffed me and walked away. She came over for a treat and sat patiently for it but did not take it. This beautiful girl loves to climb anything she can get her eyes on, chairs, people, tables etc and allowed me to pick her up to put her down. When another (male) staff member came into the room she loosened right up compared to how she was with me and darted over to him excitedly with a wagging tail and smile she jumped all over him and was super playful. Once he left I tried to initiate that play but she was uninterested. PLAY: Minimal interest – short lived TOYS Trades for other toys – play growls when she has toys 01/25/2025 staff notes: Got called to help take Shay back since the finder said she was growling at people outside. When Shay greeted me she had a wagging tail, soft eyes, and was doing full body wiggles. She allowed for leashing easily and came right in for sniffs. She was very social and sweet with me, jumping around and allowing some all over pets. She was stress panting with bloodshot eyes, so she was definitely stressed, but remained loose and wiggly with me. She met some other people and was equally sweet with them. When going to kennel she pancaked at her door, but allowed me to pick her up and lift her into kennel without an issue. The initial growling may have been from stress, or the finder may have mistaken her bulldog grunts/grumbles/snorts/breathing as growling.
