 | Rescue Me ID: 17-06-19-00282Sheeva and Slash (female)
Sheeva (right in photo) is an approximately 5 year old female pit mix that has had 2 litters of puppies, including Slash (left in photo) who is from her first litter, born April 25, 2014. Both have had no prior vetting. I am posting them on behalf of their owner who is no longer able to keep them or care for them properly, as they themselves are currently homeless, so I have taken on the task of feeding and caring for their dogs till they are rehomed. Sheeva and Slash are in desperate need of a forever home, and CAN be seperated. Sheeva does well with other dogs but not cats, is housebroken for the most part and good with people of all ages. ... (Read More)She is somewhat of an escape artist and can climb fencing or porches like a cat, so she must be leashed at all times if left alone. Slash is believed to be blind, so prefer a home with older kids so not to startle him and cause an accidental bite. Even though he has never bitten anyone, any animal caught off guard is liable to snap out of fear. Otherwise, he does well with most people. He has been an outside dog most of his life, so I'm unaware of whether or not he is housebroken. I do know that he hasn't been socialized with other animals, therefore he probably wouldn't get along with other animals. He is very low key, calm and sweet, though. If you're interested in either dog please contact me and I can fill you in on more details or answer questions you may have regarding either of them. (Less) Fayette County Oak hill, WV MAP IT!

 | Rescue Me ID: 17-06-12-00279Izabelle Valentine (female)
Izabelle is a dog I took in when she was approximately 8 months old. Prior to me taking her in, she was raised in a building with no socialization on top of being starved. She has came a long way since then. When I first got her, she was emaciated, didn't get along with other animals, and was very skittish and fearful aggressive. Now, she does wonderful with my other 2 dogs, does great with my daughters, and does fine with the cats (besides occasionly chasing them around the house from time to time). I feel she could blossom with more socialization, but she has been known to snap out of fear at strangers who go to pet her before she has a ... (Read More)chance to smell them and warm up to them on her own time. She is very intelligent and learned several commands within the first week of taking her in. She knows how to sit, lie down, beg, wave 'hi', shake paw, etc. She tends to pull on the leash while being walked, and usually whines during car rides, but she loves spending time swimming at the river. Additionally, she is housebroken, but she does suffer from separation anxiety and boredom at times, and tends to chew up things. With proper excercise (and probably a crate) I believe it wouldn't be such an issue. I took her in to save her life, but I intend on helping other animals after she finds a home, and I feel she is ready for the next chapter of her life with a forever family willing to work with her and continue building her trust and confidence.

Kane is a 8 year old dog and looks primarily like a chocolate pit bull. He is very mild mannered, and sweet. The neighbors I have think pit bulls make Charles Manson look like a third grader. He has never bitten anyone. He has never chased anyone. Used to be a house dog and is house broken. Free to a good home! Please! His skin is sensitive but is a beautiful animal.

| 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.
