Story
Edith is a 9-month-old spayed Pit Bull Terrier with a heart as warm and cozy as her favorite blanket nests. Despite her orthopedic challenges, Edith’s joyful and loving nature shines brightly. She’s ready to find a family who will cherish her sweet personality and provide the care she needs. Edith’s foster family was happy to share what makes her so beloved and special. Edith is a professional blanket-nester. She can’t sleep without a soft blankie and loves curling up by the fire, surrounded by cozy warmth and her favorite people. She is an affectionate companion. Edith has a heart full of love for everyone—dogs, humans, and even toys. She’ll happily dole out kisses and thrives on affection and companionship. Edith enjoys the company of social, gentle, and dainty dog friends and is also great with children. She’s a social butterfly with a gentle demeanor. Her foster family shares that Edith is both potty-trained and crate-trained, making her a great addition to any household. She walks easily on a leash and is an agreeable travel buddy, as long as she has her trusty blanket by her side. Edith is a smart girl who knows her basic commands like sit, come, and lay down. She’s eager to please and ready to continue learning with her new family.Edith has faced significant orthopedic challenges in her young life. Her right rear leg had a previous fracture healed as a malunion, resulting in a right luxating patella (kneecap popping out of place). While Edith uses this leg well, surgery may not be necessary at this time. In her left front leg, she has an angular limb deformity caused by premature growth plate closure and elbow joint incongruency (misaligned joint surfaces). A surgical consultation is strongly recommended to evaluate her options for potential corrective surgery. These injuries may result in long-term issues, including the potential for arthritis, which will require ongoing management. Future surgeries and treatments will be the responsibility of her adopter, so Edith’s medical needs should be carefully considered.Edith would thrive in a home that understands her medical needs and is committed to her care. She’s happiest in a cozy, loving environment where she can snuggle up with her people. A family with gentle, social dogs or kids to share her warmth and playfulness would be ideal If you’re looking for a sweet, snuggly companion and are ready to help Edith thrive despite her challenges, she’ll fill your life with unconditiona

Story
Meet our Trudie with the wiggliest booty! You would never imagine how shut down and terrified this girl was in the beginning. What got her to really open up is our daily playgroups. She absolutely loves hanging out with her pup friends and cuddling up with the volunteers while she`s at it. Now, Trudie is nothing short of a ray of sunshine, ready to take on the world and give all the living beings her love. In Trudie`s ideal home, she would do well living with other pups so she can still have a pack of friends. We do recommend older kids since Trudie can be jumpy and exhuburant. If you need some more spunk and smile in your life, come meet this lively bug!
