 | Rescue Me ID: 14-07-21-00705Meeko (male)
I have a German Shepherd/Pitt Bull mix, he has the markings of a German Shepherd, black/tan, he was born April 11, I have had him since Memorial Weekend. We have another large male dog, lab/chow mix, they have played together from day one. My grand daughter who is 3 was here a couple weeks ago and they played for hours tugging on a rope, he never once nipped at her. Because my husband does not want another dog in the house and has no time to help me with him, I sadly need to find him a good home. He needs a firm hand, but is easy to train, he is very playful and loves to play outside. I have taught him to sit and bring me a toy back I ... (Read More)throw. He sleeps in his kennel that I have in the house with no problem. He actually goes in there sometimes to nap, but most of the time when I am home he sleeps in front of the air conditioning duct. I have two other girls at home who are older. He always is friendly to anyone who comes here and we always have kids here. I will be very selective to make sure he is with the right person/family.

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.

 | 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.'

My mother was found tied to a fence pregnant and taken to the shelter where she gave birth 10 days later. She shoved me out several times, abandoning me totally when I was around three weeks old.

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.
