 | Rescue Me ID: 14-04-21-00167Oaky (male)
Born in July of 2013, Oaky is a well loved pup in need of a new home. Rides and walks well, friendly with most people and stays part time with an elderly person without issue. Plays safely with a small female shiz-tsu, but has been in a scuffle with another male dog over bones. He has not been around children for any length of time, but given his young age and treat/bone aggression I would not feel safe with him around a child. Jackson County Kenna, WV MAP IT!

 | Rescue Me ID: 14-04-13-00127Hope (female)
This pit bull puppy was found abandoned and malnourished on Thanksgiving eve 2013 at a property that we recently purchased in Hedgesville, WV. It is unknown how long she had been left there but you count every rib on her. She has been taken to the vet, spayed and vaccinated. She has been cared for and loved for the past five months but we have cats and she does not get along with them. It is not fair to her to keep her crated too much and that is what is happening. I do not have the time spend with her or an open area to let her out to run. We currently live in a townhouse in the city. She is a very lovable puppy and just needs a good ...

Hey guys my name is princess, I was rescued by Michelle when my original owners were gonna bring me to the pound because they bred me and 4 weeks later got kicked out of their apartment. I am approximately 8 weeks old. I am very loving. I love to curl up and cuddle with you. If I'm not cuddling with you I get sad. (Very true, not an exaggeration) cow milk is my preferred drink/food of choice because I am so young. I also eat regular dry dog food too.i can drink water from a bowl but I like my water spout in my cage better. I am teething, but I am learning very fast the difference between good and bad nibbles. Speaking of learning fast, I ... (Read More)know the commands 'pprincess no!' 'Princess down!' 'Sit down' 'stay' and I'm still trying comprehend paw. Mommy is being patient though. I do need that sometimes because I am surprisingly alot like a child. I need a good home. Someone who will play with me and cuddle. If you are just gonna bring me to a shelter when I'm big and no longer cute than im not the dog for you. If your gonna physically hit me or abuse me by keeping me outside in all kinds of weather and use me as a fighter dog than get lost. Please someone give me the home I deserve... :) (Less) Berkeley County martinsburg, WV MAP IT!

 | Rescue Me ID: 14-02-08-00152FLEX (male)
FLEX came into our home as a rescue from a local high kill shelter. He was so depressed from being in the shelter the staff didn't think he was going to survive. I had a current foster and couldn't bring him home right away but went to visit him daily and he began to make an immediate recovery. After a week I was able to bring him home where he has been a wonderful foster to have. He does great with our 2 and 7 year old sons and gets along well with our 4 year old female Mastiff and 7 month old male Pit Bull foster. He is a dominant personality so would do best with submissive type dogs and experienced owners who know how to assert ... (Read More)themselves as the 'alpha'. He is very friendly but also protective of us and our children especially. When my husband and our 7 year old get to wrestling and my son makes a noise of distress, FLEX is right there to insert himself between my husband and my son letting him know that's enough. He would make a great addition to a family with children or would make an individual just as happy and be just as devoted to them as well. He loves tennis balls and would like a nice big fenced in yard to run around in for some daily exercise. He is house broken and crate trained and due to some separation anxiety we do keep him crated when not at home so that he won't take his anxiety out by chewing on things.

SPECIAL NEEDS (BONDED PAIR) We are Hunter & Lucy. We are a bonded pair. Hunter says: 'Woof! I am Medium Tan Adult Male Pit Bull. I am nearing 3 years old. I have an excellent temperment. I am a great snuggle buddy and can be somewhat of a couch potato. I love laying around and relaxing and I enjoy kicking back in front of the fireplace. I have lived in a long-term home with other dogs and cats, however sometimes I tend to get excited and play hard. I am not aggressive, but I am not aware of my own strength or size. (I'm kind of a big deal like Superman. Do these photos make my butt look big?) I tend to get very exuberant and happy in ... (Read More)the company of multiple people or animals and my playful demeanor might overwhelm tiny pets, very young children or seniors without intending to. For these reasons, it is best that I be in a home with no small pets (other than my best furever friend Lucy) and where my playtime with those not steady on their feet can be responsibly monitored. I sometimes have a tendency to chew up dog beds if not properly stimulated. I also misbehave with shoes if given the opportunity, so please put those away. I am afraid of lawn mowers, weed eaters and the vacuum cleaner. I am very smart and will do anything to please you. I love puzzle games like "Find The Treat". I get along with every dog unless I feel dominated. I will retreat at first, but I will only tolerate being bullied for so long, so if this should happen please remove me from the situation. Lucy is my best furever friend and I am very gentle with her. I do get along with cats, however again I get excited and they may not enjoy my high energy play.' Lucy says, 'Yap Yap! I am Lucy! I am a Tri-Color Adult Female Jack Russell Terrier. I am almost 4 years old now! I am energetic but not overhwhelmingly so. I am very affectionate and cuddly. I love to sleep under the covers. I love to boss my best furever friend Hunter around! I can be very stubborn. Hunter is very tolerant with me and tolerates everything I dish out to him. I get along with cats and other dogs.' The adoption fee for a bonded pair of dogs is $250 and that includes: 'ۢ veterinarian examination 'ۢ current vaccines 'ۢ current flea, intestinal parasite, and heartworm prevention 'ۢ spay/neuter 'ۢ a microchip for identification if ever lost or stolen 'ۢ current heartworm test For more information on this pet, please visit our website, swval.org or search for us on Petfinder.com In order to adopt, fill out the adoption application from our website or email us at adopt.swval@gmail.com and we'll send you an application!

I am Pretty. I am a Young White Female Boxer Pitbull Mix. I am a shelter rescue. I had a litter of puppies while in the shelter, but no one wanted me. I was pulled by a rescue but because I kept escaping my kennel at the fosters and developed quick attachments to my human, the rescue was afraid they could not manage me so SWVAL took me in rather than see me go back to the shelter. I love attention from my humans and I love to be loved. I will mix w/ other dogs well as long as I am allowed to be the alpha dog and lead and be closest to my chosen human. I love to play and show more and more interest in playing with other dogs the longer I ... (Read More)am with my foster. I tend to bond very quickly and have a protective nature. I am very high energy and need someone with an active lifestyle. I crave attention and affection and my whole body wiggles w/ excitement when I see my humans. I am doing well with my leash training. I get very excited when it's time for my walk and want to explore. On the way back from my walk, I am more of a companion walker, as I have already explored everything.

| PIease Read Before Adopting a Pit Bull in West Virginia | |||||||||
Pit Bull Dogs can make good pets in West Virginia 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.
