HAPPY TAILS

THESE PIT BULLS HAVE BEEN ADOPTED THIS YEAR

2018 Happy Tails

BROWNIE

Picture
Went Home: 10/5/19
Brownie is a 4 year old American Pit Bull Terrier/ Mix. This sweet girl was surrendered when her owner died and no one  could take care of her.   She was kept outside on a tie out 24/7 and we are thinking she is not  currently familiar with house training.  Brownie is so smart we don't think teaching (or reminding) her will be a big  issue, and she should have it down in no time!  She gets along with other dogs and is very sweet with kids, although we do not know about cats. Brownie is what we call an "A" dog meaning she does not have any issues with food or toys being taken away from her, doesn't have a problem meeting other dogs spontaniously, and  doesn't mind her paws or face being touched. Brownie is spayed, micro-chipped, and up to date on her vaccinations  for $99. She has been at the shelter since 2/05/19 and is ready to find her new home!!

OREO

Picture
Oreo is a 1 year old American  Pit Bull Terrier mix who was surrendered to the shelter due to  the death of his owner. He was kept outside 24/7 on a tie out, so it is likely this boy will need some help with housebreaking. But, he is so smart and eager to please, we don't think  it should take long for him to figure it out!   Oreo would do best with a more active family who can provide him with  daily walks and hikes. This sweet boy would make a fantastic adventure buddy! He get's along with other dogs and is super sweet with kids, although we are unsure about cats. He can have a lot of energy, and might be a little too much dog for young kids, so we recommend he go into a home with older kids only. Oreo is working on learning his basic commands and perfecting his leash manners (which are pretty good right now!) and we  think he would love to learn some fun little tricks as well. He is what we call an "A" dog, meaning that he has no issues with food or toys being taken away, gets along with other dogs, and has no problem with his face or paws being grabbed. Oreo is neutered, micro-chipped, and up to date on his vaccinations for $99. This sweet boy has been at the shelter since  2/05/19.

BEBE

Picture
Bebe is a  3 1/2 year old American Pit Bull Terrier mix who was surrendered to the shelter when she no longer got along with other dogs in the household.  While being at the shelter, Bebe has played and lived with several dogs, but she can be picky about which dogs she likes. This sweet girl could also live with cats, but needs to go to a livestock-free home. She gets along great with kids, absolutely LOVES  people, and is house trained. Bebe would love a dog confident house to live in, and we feel she would really enjoy a good couch to lay on as well. Bebe is spayed, micro-chipped, and up to date on her vaccinations for $99 . She has been at the shelter since  June 7,2019. 

COCO

Picture
Coco is a  4 year old American Pit Bull Terrier mix who was brought to the shelter when her owner was unable to care for her. Coco is working on remembering her basic manners and commands, as well  as some cute behaviors. Because she has been in and out of the shelter for the past year (none of these times were her fault, just unfortunate circumstances) she has gotten pretty bored of being in the shelter and has picked up on some rude behaviors while in her kennel. Outside of her kennel (like in the meet and greet room) she is the doll we know her to be. Coco would do best in an active home without cats, but  would have no problem living in a home with the right dog. Because she can come on strong and can be a lot of dog at times, we recommend Coco goes to a home with older or no kids. This gorgeous girl would be an amazing hiking and walking partner, she loves to run and hike around! Coco does have some food allergies and needs to go to a home that can feed her a special diet so she  does not turn red (her current reaction to many foods). This amazing girl has been available for adoption since  the  middle of June and would love to find her forever home!  She is spayed, micro-chipped, and up to date on her vaccinations for $99. 

GRACE

Picture
Went home: 2/08/19
Grace is a 1 year old American Pit Bull Terrier mix who was transferred into our shelter from a nearby and overcrowded  shelter. Grace gets along great with other dogs, is in a play group with some,  has a kennel pair inside the shelter, and we think she would be great in a multi-dog home. She can be a little shy at first, which we are working on,  and has already made amazing improvements. Grace is working on learning her basic commands, perfecting her leash work, and being comfortable in a busy building ( like the shelter thrift store) . Once we feel she has mastered all of these  things, we will run her through the Canine Good Citizen test. She has gotten very good at 'touch' which is a command we are using to help her gain confidence, as well as distract her from any situations she becomes uncomfortable in. We are continuing to work with Grace on building confidence, as well as expanding her ability to do other commands in busy areas.  Grace would love to go into an active home where she can run around, hike, play in the snow, and go for lots of walks. This lovely lady has been spayed, micro-chipped, and is up to date on vaccinations for $99. Grace has been at the shelter since  11/29/18. Grace has been adopted! 

BUTTERS

Picture
Went home: 2/2/19
Butters is a 1 year old American Pit Bull Terrier/ Mix. We can't guarantee what breeds make up this boy, but we can say he has the amazing attributes of so  many! Butters came in as a surrender when it became apparent he did not get along with livestock, and  will need to be adopted into a livestock -free home and environment.  Butters comes on as a confident and strong boy, but he is a little less comfortable then he lets on in new situations. He has been spending lots of time with our trainer to help him gain confidence in situations new to him, as well as work on his dog reactivity. Butters has made amazing progress since coming to the shelter, and now plays with a group of other dogs, something he was not able to do when he first came in. We think Butters will do fine in a house with a strong cat (one who will smack before running) as he  was terrified of a cat when he recently encountered one. As in, tried to run away from the cat. Butters is a very sweet  boy who is looking to go into a dog experienced and confident home, where he will be able to bond with someone and thrive into the fantastic dog we know he can be. He is neutered, micro-chipped, and up to date on his vaccinations for $99. Butters has been at the shelter since 11/14/18. Butters has been  adopted!

ONYX

Picture
Went home: 1/20/19
Onyx is a  2 year old American Pit Bull Terrier/ Retriever mix. He was found as a stray and no one came to claim him. Onyx is a little shy at first, so  we are working on confidence building with him, but he is a total love once he is comfortable with you. Onyx gets along well with other dogs, and would do well in a home either with or without other dogs. Because he can be pretty nervous at first, we are recommending no younger kids, as we don't want to scare him and have him take steps  backwards and become more shy. Onyx would do best in a  calmer and patient home, and needs someone who is willing to work with him a little bit on  confidence building, as well as help him learn some basic behaviors.  This sweet boy can be a cuddle bug once he warms up, and is one of our move favorite guys right now! He has been neutered, micro-chipped, and up to date on his vaccinations for $99. Onyx has been at the shelter since 12/31/18.  Onyx has been adopted! 

PINKY

Picture
Went home: 1/10/19
Pinky is a 1 1/2 year old Cattle Dog/ American Pit Bull Terrier mix. She was brought to the shelter as a stray and no one came to claim her. This fantastic girl is very energetic and loves to run around outside.   Pinky is great at playing fetch! She brings the ball back, drops it at your feet, and  goes and chases it again!  Pinky is very new to the shelter, and we have not yet seen her full personality. Pinky has done well with playing with other dogs, and we think she would do okay in a home with or without other dogs.  This sweet and confident girl is looking for a like-minded owner, and we can't wait to see her grow once she has been adopted! Pinky is already spayed, micro-chipped, and up to date on her vaccinations. Pinky has been at the shelter since 12/31/18.  This fantastic girl found her forever  home!
