Story
Biggie is as his name describes, a big guy at 70lbs. Due to his size and energy level we are not recommending small kids though he is very friendly towards children. He’s friendly with everyone he meets! Biggie loves toys and chewing bones! He would love a family that can engage with him with training, walks, and play. Despite his energy level, he does do well in a crate at night or when his foster family is away. Although he’s lived with dogs fine, slow proper introductions are necessary. We think a home without cats would be best as he does like to chase them when he’s under stimulated.

Story
Ghetti is a 2-3 year old American Bully. She was found running stray with another dog in WV. Spaghetti AKA Ghetti is as cute as they come! She's about 35-40lbs of beautiful bully. She does have some quirks(mainly her fearfulness of men and general shyness). BUT, she has made great strides since being in foster and we have every ounce of confidence that she will continue to flourish in the right home. An added bonus is that she comes with FREE ongoing support from the rescue's certified behavior consultant. In foster, she has become extremely close with the male in the home after her intial fearful behavior of him. The key with her is time, patience, space and understanding. She's really just learning about humans and it's important to continue to make her feel safe. Once she feels safe and trusts you, WATCH OUT! She will crawl into your lap and cuddle like you've never seen. She may even show you her goofy side which is so fun to see! Ghetti may need several meet and greets if you are male or have a male in your home, so if you're impatient or pushy DON'T APPLY. She would do best in a home with a calm male dog or as the only dog, no cats or small animals, respectful kids aged 10 and up. Her ideal home would be on the calm/quiet side. She really loves walks, so if you like walking or hiking in areas with low traffic and noise...she would love to be your hiking partner! She will need someone that isn't scared to advocate for her...meaning that you will need to be able to tell people, "Hey, please give her some space, she's shy." ...or put her in a crate with something yummy if you're having people over and you feel she might not be comfortable. Someone that is willing to always put Ghetti's feelings and best interest first, so that she can continue to learn to trust the world would be amazing! She is not a dog park dog nor would she enjoy outings with people everywhere. Some of her favorite things include: walks in the woods, food, SNUGGLES, treat puzzles and confidence building games, couch potato-ing and car rides. She does well in her crate and hasn't had any potty training issues. If you think you can be an advocate to protect her and her feelings and love her little hippo self, SHE WILL GIVE YOU THAT LOVE BACK TENFOLD! She is special and deserves someone special...reach out if you think that someone special is you!  ##1541407##

Story
What better time of year -- especially with record-breaking temperatures -- to get cozy with Emry. This lovely Pittie mix girl will keep you warm as she is a top-notch lap dog. And she will make you laugh at her charming and goofy Pittie smile. She is very food motivated and loves treats and observation suggests she will learn routines quickly. Emry likes to stay close to where people are; she craves attention and affection. Emry is a happy and sweet soul with not a mean bone in her body. Great with other dogs, she is the perfect companion for someone looking for a sweet couch potato that loves cuddles and companionship. Emry is currently residing at the Brooke County Animal Shelter. Please contact the shelter at 304-394-0800 for more information or to schedule a visit.January 24, 2025, 10:00 am
