Meet Winston: The Gentle Giant with a Heart of Gold! Well, howdy there! I'm Winston, and I'm not just a big guy; I've got a personality to match that's as grand as my size. At a whopping 105 pounds, I'm quite the gentle giant. Here's a bit about me: Excitement Overload: Let's Play Tug 'O War with Leashes! When it's time for walks, I can hardly contain my excitement. I've been known to mistake my leash for a tug 'o war opponent! I've been diligently working on breaking this habit with our kennel staff, and I'll need my future family to help continue the hard work. Toy Enthusiast: Big Stuffed Toys and Rope Toys Are Tops! Big stuffed toys and rope toys are my jam! They keep me entertained and bring out my playful side. Tug, fetch, or just some good old-fashioned chewing – I'm up for it all! Butt Rub Fanatic: Scratch That Itch! You want to make my day? Give me some butt rubs! I absolutely adore them, and they're my ticket to bliss. People Person: Hanging Out with You is the Best I'm a social butterfly, and I thrive on human company. Whether we're going for walks, playing with toys, or simply lounging around, I'm happiest when I'm with my people. Training Adventure: Learning to Walk Like a Pro Walking politely on a leash is a skill I'm still mastering. I might need a strong handler to help me with this, but I'm eager to learn and make progress every day. Ready for a Family: Could We Be a Perfect Match? Do I sound like I might be a good fit for your family? There's only one way to find out – come on by, and let's meet each other. I'm Winston, the big-hearted pit bull ready to bring joy, excitement, and plenty of tail wags into your home. Let's make memories together!

Story
Murray is a super sweet, affectionate, fun, amazingly smart companion. He loves loves loves playing fetch, and has a blast with his toys. He is 3 years old, is trained on an e-collar and is a very fast learner. 2 free lessons from Off Leash K9 are available to whomever can give Murray a good home. (https://nrvandroanokedogtrainer.com/) Unfortunately, Murray has shown a bit of reactivity towards other animals, so cannot be in a house with other pets, and would do best with older children (7-8 years old). It is also probably best if he is with an experienced dog owner. We're incredibly sad to be rehoming Murray, but we're expecting our first child and can't take the risk. We hope he can find a home that will love him as much as we do.

Story
They call me Exuberant, Handsome and Sweet but you can choose a new name for me when we adopt each other. I don’t care what you call me, as long as you call me. I’m a happy dog who loves people more than anything else in the world. I’m a 4+ year old mix, with a 22” collar and am very big and strong. The Vet said I weigh 73 pounds. Don’t let that scare you because I am just a mushy ball of love. I like to let everyone know how happy I am to see them by twirling around and wagging my tail as fast as it will go. This is usually when they call me Exuberant. I like to have fun. I’m such a good boy and I have good potty manners. I prefer being inside with people at night especially. Since I have a lot of energy and need exercise, your large fenced yard will be well-used. My foster peeps say I need a family, not a job. They know that I’m a quick learner and will be someone’s best dog ever. Because I’m big and young at heart, my new humans should have some experience with dogs and be able to work with someone of my stature. I promise I will try to do everything you ask enthusiastically. I don’t like loud booming noises (fireworks or dynamite) or gunfire but neither do most of my friends. Health wise, I am terrific; up to date on shots and tested negative for heartworms. Foster peeps say it means I will get my forever home very soon! Maybe it’s yours! FOCCAS is a foster based, non-profit rescue in Crossville, TN.
