“Mack”

Mack

Age: 3 years 8 months

Gender: Male

Breed: Pit bull

I would like to introduce you to one of the most gentle, sweet and kind boys I have met since being with the rescue. His name is Mack; Kathy rescued him a year ago from the pound. He was in terrible shape, she found a nice lady with a sanctuary where he could go to heal, physically and emotionally. Mack had been used as a bait dog. I get tears in my eyes every time I even think about the life he has led; he is only about 3 years old! As you can see from his pictures, the one side of his face shows his scars, part of his nose is missing, part of his jaw is missing, part of his lip is torn and his ears are torn in half. His teeth have been almost completely filed down so he can’t enjoy a chew like other dogs… HOWEVER, Mack doesn’t complain, doesn’t carry a grudge… instead he kisses you when you kneel down to him, he buries his head into your neck, and he wags his tail when you talk to him!!!!

Mack is now ready to find his forever home. He needs to be an only dog due to his past and fear of other dogs. He has healed up and ready to live the same life that every amazing dog deserves and maybe just a little better for him!!! He is truly an inspiration when you meet him.


Sonya and DawnMarie are the proud sponsors of Mack for the month of June!

“Roscoe”

Roscoe

Age: 1 years 7 months

Gender: Male

Breed: Lab/Doberman mix

Roscoe was rescued from a hoarding situation. He was terrified of everything and completely shut down. He has had some obedience training and will walk good on a leash, will sit and down on command. He is housebroken and great with other dogs, cats, small animals and livestock. He is learning to trust again and will need someone with dog experience, due to his fear, but with patience and love he will come to trust. We have had a lot of introductions with stranger and although he is hesitant at first he warms up to them quickly. Small children may scare him with their quick movements, but he will be good with older children

“Jazzy”

Jazzy

Age: 1 years 7 months

Gender: Female

Breed: Pit bull

Molly was seized by the police department and then we rescued her from animal control. Her and 16 other pits were living in very poor living conditions with no access to food, water or shelter from the sun. She is a bit shy right now. You can see it when you meet her that she is very eager to meet new people and recieve love and attention but she is not trusting enough. She simply needs positive attention and love to build her confidence. She gets along with other dogs. Knowing the past living conditions she came from she will need some work with house training but she is already showing quick progress with kennel training.

“Capone”

Capone

Age: 9 months

Gender: Male

Breed: Pit bull

Capone came to us as a foster when he was only 10 weeks old. He was beyond shy and didn’t quite know what to make of the world. He and his litter mates along with 13 other pit bulls had been rescued from a severe neglect situation.
Capone has come along way; there isn’t a day that he doesn’t make us smile and laugh. He has bonded with all of the dogs in his foster house in his own unique charismatic way. Although he enjoys each day to the fullest, Capone is a special boy. Capone is one of the most layed back social dogs I think we have ever had in our rescue. He is so easy going and eager to great any new creature or person that might come along. He is house trained and crate trained and loves his bean bag in the evening.
He is truly a puppy that just wants to love you and enjoy the day with you. He doesn’t ask for anything but a hug and a smile!
