Rescue Me ID: 12-01-11-00217Beauford (male)

Pit Bull    Age: Puppy

Compatibility: Good w/ Most Dogs, Good w/ Most Cats, Good w/ Kids and Adults 
Personality: Average Energy, Average Temperament 
Health: Neutered, Vaccinations Current 

    OK, so this is the situation, at least as far as I know it. My name is Beauford, I am about 1 and 1/2 years old, neutered and very lovable. But an event happened the other day that is very confusing to me. Here's what happened. I looked out in the yard and I saw someone in it who I did not recognize at the time. She had a hooded sweatshirt on , with the hood up and I reacted as I though I should. I ran out and sorta bit her. I stopped when I saw who she was, but I guess it was too late. Anyhow, my Moms were very upset and the next thing I knew, I was in the car, on the way to a place called the SPCA. The people there were very nice ... (Read More)and I heard them tell my Mom that they could quarantine me for 10 days and then they would put me down, whatever that is. She was very upset and even though I tried to make her feel better, she agreed to let me stay in that place. I was pretty scared. There were a lot of other dogs, mostly pit bulls who were there in different kennels from me and they all looked just as scared. And then , about1 hour later, my Mom came back and she said she couldn?t leave me there, that I didn?t deserve it and she said she would take me home for the 10 days . Then she said something that I didn?t understand, something about euthanizing me afterwards. I really don?t know what that means, but judging on how sad my Mom is, I don?t think it?s something good. Anyhow, I?m back home with her and she is really loving on me a lot, but I wish she would not cry so much. She keeps telling me that I am a good boy and she knows that I was just trying to protect her and my brothers and sisters. But she said, she can?t keep me. Something about my being too strong for her and that I need someone who can exercise me more and can train me a bit better. I don?t know exactly what that means as I think she does good with me. But I guess I am a bit too strong for her sometimes. So, anyhow, my Mom has said that she will give me a little longer and try to find me a new home. Everyone that has seen me has said that I should not be put down, whatever that means and that I am not a dog that bites. But I am protective of my family and I thought that is what I was supposed to do. Anyhow, I am confused and I thought that if someone out there knows about me, they will consider taking me or at least mention me to others. I am a bit active and I love life. I have been somewhat trained and that works most of the time ( unless I see a rabbit and then I get rabbit brain.) I am not agressive and my Moms want a home for me where I will be treated with love. I am an inside dog so I would not do well in an outside kennel. I think I am a lap dog and I love curling up to my Moms. Sometimes I pin them down and I guess it is kind of hard for them to get up, but I just have so much love in me for them, that I get carried away. Anyhow, they think that I would have a happier life with someone that can give me more active attention then they can. So, I?m writing this to ask you if you know of anyone who could give me a new home. Call my moms at 302-684-1885 if you can help me out. Until then, I remain, forever lovable, Beauford. Oh and see how handsome I am by looking at the attachment. (Less)

Rescue Me ID: 12-01-03-00043Nala (female)

Pit Bull    Age: Young Adult

Compatibility: Not Good with Other Dogs, Good with Kids and Adults 
Personality: High Energy, Average Temperament 
Health: Spayed 

    I acquired Nala at six months old. I have an older female pit bull and now they are not getting along and we are having to keep them separated. This could be due to the difference in their ages and energy levels. Nala is a great dog, loves people and loves to snuggle. She is fully house trained and loves to be outside. Free to a good home.

Pit Bull    Age: Young Adult

Compatibility: Not Good w/ Other Dogs, Good w/ Most Cats, Good w/ Kids and Adults 
Personality: Average Energy, Somewhat Dominant

    JuJuBe is a 50 lb sweetheart of a dog except when around other female dogs. Currently she has attacked our other female numerous times and we just don't want risk her around the other dogs either. She is possessive over food and attention. She is mainly an indoor dog, house trained and kennel trained. I am posting for my parents. They are letting her stay a week, then she goes to the animal shelter where her fate is most likely death. Please help us give her a chance to find a more suitable home. Thank you and have a blessed day.

PIease Read Before Adopting a Pit Bull in Delaware
    Pit Bull Dogs can make good pets in Delaware if they match your IifestyIe. The American Pit Bull Terrier is a powerful dog with an undeserved reputation for inherent viciousness. A Pit Bull that receives attention, firm training, and thorough socialization makes a wonderful family guardian that is trustworthy with children. Pit Bulls need committed, experienced owners that exude leadership. Pit Bulls excel at high level obedience with proper training. Pit Bulls have been bred for dog fights, and unfortunately a dog that is abused, neglected, or whose instinctive aggression is encouraged, can become hostile and dangerous. Pit Bulls can adapt to apartment life with enough exercise.
