Story
This handsome hunk is Pluto. He could certainly win America's strongest dog competition. But don't let that fool you, he does have some leash manners. Pluto's motto is "anything you can do I can do too". As a deaf dog Pluto doesn't let it stand in the way of living life to the fullest. Pluto needs someone who will commit to proper training so that he can be his best self. We highly encourage you to research training deaf dogs before you fill out an application. While it may not necessarily be harder, it is certainly different. At this time, we are still trying to determine if he would be good with other dogs. Because he is still working on himself, tiny humans wouldn't be recommended. Pluto is estimated to be about 3 years old. **PLEASE NOTE: We only do meet and greets with dogs by appointment. To meet any dog, you will need to apply and be approved first! **To start the adoption process, please complete our online adoption application at our website http://www.henrycountyhumanesociety.org. We will contact you once your application is approved and set up a time to come and meet Pluto. Filling out an application and meeting Pluto doesn't mean you are required to adopt if you feel it is not a good fit for you.

Story
Fezzik....how do we even begin to describe a dog like him? Fezz is a 4 year old brown/grey Staffordshire bull terrier. He is large and in charge and looking for love. Weighing in at an impressive 87 pounds, he`s big and happy and friendly and snorty, but he`s also strong and stubborn so he needs someone who can physically manage him. This behavior becomes the most pronounced when he has attached himself to his favorite toy-of-the-day; he resource-guards it until the thrill wears off so staff has learned to leave him alone while he gets it out of his system. When the adrenaline has subsided, the chosen toy is left in shambles and he`s ready to socialize once again. He is very motivated....for attention, for toys, for SQUEAKER toys, for food.....as long as it`s not fruit. This man won`t miss a meal but he draws the line at the healthy stuff! Fezzik loves all the outdoor things, too....playing in the water, rolling around in the grass, army-crawling to scratch his belly on the ground. Staff reports that he`s a leg lifter outside, that he does the cutest little tap dance when he`s excited, and that he`s pretty easy to please and entertain. Because Fezzik can guard his toys and food until he`s decided he`s done, he is not for a first-time dog owner. Fezz would be a great companion for someone with dog experience who can handle a big lug like him and can read his cues and give him space when he wants it.
