Story
Wilt is best described as a giant puppy - in the best way possible. He is about 3 years old and while he doesn't have puppy energy, he does have an infectious playfulness that cannot help but bring a smile to your face. Wilt is good with other dogs and humans of all ages. He can be a little jealous when he isn't getting all the pets, but he is easily redirected. All he wants is to make his humans happy. Wilt is about 70 lbs and on the taller side. He sort of looks like a mini great Dane. This bully breed boy is sure to bring a lot of love and levity to your life.

Story
Sweet Viola is the definition of resilience. She found herself dumped at an LA shelter in abhorrent condition - she had a severe upper respiratory infection, her skin was in terrible shape, and she appears to have been bred over and over :( But her bad luck didn't end there. Viola was "rescued" by a new organization who was ill-equipped to provide her the medical care she desperately needed. So she sat in deplorable conditions for nearly a week while her condition worsened to pneumonia. By the time Stand Up For Pits Foundation and Mad Mutts became involved, Viola was in critical condition. She spent a collective three weeks in the hospital on supplemental oxygen and the strongest antibiotics available. Now 2 months later, she is ready for her forever home! Viola is house trained, has personality for DAYS, knows "sit" and "shake," and LOVES to be loved. We have not done a dog temperament test on her, because we do prefer she is the only dog in the home. After all she has been through - she deserves to be someone's one and only :) We do not expect Viola to have any long term complications from her illness but her new family will need to make sure they limit her exposure potential to respiratory infections.

I am in need of rehoming my dog because I have some medical issues going on and I cannot tend to her as I should. She is an amazing, loving, beautiful dog, who deserves a home that she will be cared for properly and is also given time and love.
