    VERY LOVABLE!!!!! Bear is a pit bull/boxer mix. He loves women! Fully house-trained and crate-trained. He is being fostered right now and in search of a permanent home. His next owner would need to have a yard where he can run and play. He loves going for walks and car rides. He does do well with all dogs but would prefer to be with only females. His first owner left him in the crate for 16 hours of the day and he does have separation anxiety. He has made tremendous progress since we (the foster family) took him in. He wants nothing more than to give everyone all of his love. Very sweet dog!

Health: Needs to be Spayed, Vaccinations Current, Abused/Neglected 

    Precious is absolutely wonderful, potty trained, very affectionate. She was neglected before I got her so all she is wants is love. She never leaves my side. She knows basic commands, is great with dogs when introduced properly. If I had the money to get a new apartment I would so I could keep her. She has not been around children so I do not know how she would be with them. She is great with new people so I do not believe it will be a problem.

    I have a wonderful 4 yr old pit bull who needs a loving home. I have had him since he was 4 months old. He is very energetic, but lovable. He's like a big baby that loves attention. He does tend to have a little anxiety when left alone but only for a few minutes until he calms down...he tends to whine a little. He is good with other dogs but sometimes becomes a little territorial...mostly around food. He is trained without a leash when let outside once he is taught his boundaries. Unfortunately I am unable to keep him because I do not have the time with work and school to care for him the way he deserves. Please contact me if you are ... (Read More)interested. I guarantee you'll fall in love with him immediately! (Less)

She does have a lot of energy but is trainable and good with people. I just donot want to see anything bad happen to this puppy so we are in great need of someone who would be willing to take Nyla.

Animal ID: 83Snow (male)

Pit Bull    Age: Adult


    Eight-year-old Snow was left at the shelter by his owner. He was left with a note saying goodbye. His owner moved to a new home that would not accept pets so she left him outside the shelter. He is a quiet old boy that enjoys the company of people. He is strong on a leash, knows some commands and enjoys running and rolling in the grass. You can also see Snow's video at www.youtube.com/fotnhas. http://www.petfinder.com/petdetail/20720597 http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=2504743907025&set=a.2454313046285.2137051.1505830861&type=3&permPage=1

Compatibility: Good with Male Dogs Only 

    I have been at the pound since DECEMBER 2010! THAT IS A REALLY LONG TIME!!!! I am a very unique combo of Sheppard/Pittie and Choc Lab...if you saw me in person, you would agree:) I am SO CUTE in person. I am a favorite of one of the ACO's and he spoils me with treats and time out of my cage. I am so sweet and adorable that the ACO's are holding out hoping that someone will recognize what a special dog I am. There is something about me that keeps them from letting me go.... I am easy to control on the leash, I know sit and I would train well if someone brought me home. I am a perfect medium size dog with a beautiful coat, a pretty face and ... (Read More)the deep expressive eyes. When I smile it is ear to ear!! I LOVE people. I am a INCREDIBLY LOVING animal. I am absolutely desperate to give love and be a good dog. I am smart and VERY attentive to my person, I am begging for someone to tell me what to do!! I want to learn and be part of a family. I ONLY LIKE MALE DOGS. I am an alpha female. I need a little time to get to know my male friends but then I am eager to see them and silly and playful when we hang out. I am a dog that was never taught how to properly introduce myself to my doggie friends so I can be insecure and nervous which is why a slow introduction is needed. If I had an owner who helped me learn these skills and built up my confidence I could be an excellent playmate. I really need someone to give me a chance. I have been waiting so long and the kennel is starting to get to me. The most relaxed and happy I am is after I have been outside and played a little with a doggie friend, Companionship soothes me. I am so lonely, I would be the most grateful companion. I have been waiting a very long time for the right person to come along. PLEASE, will you rescue me?

    Maya is a large dog, she wants very much to please someone she just wants to be loved. Her previous owner had too many dogs and at times she was neglected or ignored. I can't keep her because she is jealous of my dog or any other dog I pay attention to, she wants all my attention. It's so sad because you just have to give her the slightest bit of attention and she tries so hard to be good she wants to please.

    I came across Chance while running in East Rock Park early last Friday morning. He was emaciated and frightened. A fellow runner and good samaritan who lived close by stopped and we took him to her home for some food and water. He was such a good tempered dog and so loving and appreciative that I couldn't turn my back on him. I took him in, got him medical attention, vaccinations, got him groomed, bought food, toys, treats, collar and leash and a kennel among other supplies. He tested negative for heartworm and is in good health. He has put on weight and is getting healthier and happier. Unfortunately, my building doesn't allow certain ... (Read More)breeds and being a pit bull mix, he's on my buildings banned breeds list and wont allow me to keep him even though he is a friendly, gentle, loving animal. Please give Chance a chance.

Rescue Me ID: 11-06-22-00153Hannah (female)

Pit Bull Mix    Age: Young Adult

Personality: Average Energy, Somewhat Dominant 
Health: Spayed, Aggressive 

    Hannah is 3.5 years old. She is half Pit and half black Lab. She is a lovely girl that is pure black and a bit zaftig. She has kind eyes the color of milk chocolate. Up until recently she has never had behavior problems but her owner is starting to notice some aggression problems and they are getting more severe (presently more possessiveness; to some degree dominance but likely due to owner's lack of providing proper discipline/boundaries; dog-related aggression). Otherwise she is very sweet, friendly and affectionate, and loves to be all over you and give kisses. She is at a point where she can be turned around with the right owner. If she ... (Read More)remains in her present home she will only get more aggressive and may need to be PTS. Ideally, Hannah should be evaluated as to be placed in the best home, or go to someone who has had experience and success with Pit Bulls. If you think you would like to adopt or foster Hannah, please call me at 860-585-5312. (Hannah is not my dog. I know the owner and am helping her out with this placement.) I am willing to get photos or arrange an appointment with anyone seriously interested in helping this dog. (Less)
