Meet Satin!! (pronounced Sat-Tin, like the smooth, glossy fabric).
She is a spayed female pitbull of the most beautiful color imaginable!
~She is about 6 years old and quite an energetic lady. She loves to go for long walks and spend time with her person. Satin would need to be the ONLY pet in the home! She would do best with no children.

She is super smart and knows the basics like sit, down and stay! She would do best with a confident owner that will be the boss of her! Once she picks you as her person she is absolutely smitten with you!

She does not show well here in the kennel environment which likely has contributed to her being our longest running resident. **She has been with us for over 2 years**

Meet T-Bone! While this boy isn't a good fit for the multi-pet household, he's quite a catch for the one dog - one love type of person!

T-Bone is 5 years old, fully housebroken, and goofy handsome. He has used his manners nicely here and has gone on a few walks with our volunteers, but he's a home body type of guy who doesn't like being far away from the shelter (that he currently thinks is his home) for very long. He really likes being close to his person. If a clingy friend is what you're seeking, please come and meet T-Bone today!

NOTE: T-Bone is NOT a good fit for a family with children. He will require an ADULT home ONLY.

**T-BONE is neutered and has a *SPONSORED* ADOPTION FEE.

Tootsie is very friendly and affectionate with all adults. We have never seen her around children. She is very strong and muscular. As much as she loves people, she absolutely HATES other dogs. We cannot even keep another dog in the kennel next to her without her constantly trying to attack it. If she could be an only dog, she would be the most loving loyal pup, but she cannot interact with other dogs of any size or sex.

Relations: Good with dogs after intro, teens, kids/ Not so good with cats

Region: Mexico

Knights, assembled! Honoring my name, and as the truthful king of smoochies, I’m looking for honorable folks to spend the rest of my life with. If you’re up for becoming a part of the Pittie round table, I’m your perfect match! 

I am a sweet boy who is super handsome, calm and well-adjusted to being around people.

I was found on the streets of Mexico wandering around; it seemed as if I hadn’t been abandoned for very long. I almost got ran over by a truck, but my rescuer managed to get me out of the avenue, safe and sound. 

My rescuer and her family decided to take me in, so I could be safe. Apparently, my looks could have put me in danger. Sadly, my rescuer’s country isn’t the most pitbull-friendly place.

I must’ve had experience with travelling by car before, because things went perfectly all the way to the vet. The doctor said I had no health issues, and after a few days, I got neutered, vaccinated and dewormed (not my favorite moment, to be honest). 

Since then, I’ve been taken care of by my rescuer and the vet’s team, especially by a very sweet 14 year old guy with whom I spend the most time. I can get a little anxious when “my" person leaves and will softly whine. https://youtu.be/939J5WPyZe4.

I don’t care much for crowds though and feel a bit stressed at that time. 

My caretakers say that I’m the smoochiest dog ever, a good kiss is all it takes for me to be ever affectionate and just overall happy.

Listening is one of my strongest suits, so you can always count on me for that. I love sausages, so they’d do the trick if you want to train me. I can be a little stubborn at first (I’m a king) but I learn pretty fast, so I’ll pick up the commands after a short time.  https://youtu.be/2r8GFznskqo.

I always have a great time exercising, but I know how to walk calmly on a leash and pretty well ignore most everything. https://youtu.be/S5p7IPOBrvQ.

I’m smart, obedient, clean, and house trained. Yea. I like other dog’s company, but I think I will do best as the only one in the house. I sometimes move forward and growl at other dogs when they get too close. With a couple meetings, I usually become friends. I don’t like sharing my toys with other dogs when playing though. https://youtu.be/IxHbYTo5rj0.

I have been around a couple of young children and it went well. I just think I might be a little strong to hang out with them often, but I definitely get along with teenagers. They’re my favorite!     

Not usually many problems with cats, but since I don't like them too close, I can growl when I get stressed, and they can make me a little tense. But you can be sure that my years in this world made me a true gentleman, emphasis on the gentle part! 

I don’t know why, but recently I’ve started to bark at many things while in my crate. I'm typically not much of a barker. I just want to be part of a family, where I can hang out with you.

I enjoy any kinds of activity with my human knight, whether it be relaxing after a long day, or racing together in the morning. My energy level depends on what I’m doing, so I can be pretty relaxed while watching a movie or pretty energetic while playing ball (I love it!).

I’m a very adaptable guy. A back yard with a tall fence (since I know how to jump quite high when playing ball– yes, I am quite athletic) would be nice, but I also like going out for walks to enjoy the air and the view. I look forward to starting a new life in Canada and will be sure to bring lots of love and fun to my new home!

I have been neutered and vaccinated.

My adoption fee is $500.00 CAD, this includes my airfare to Canada.

This fine young man is Belroi (bell roy). He came to the animal control pound as a stray and no one came looking for him. While he hasn't always had a good life, he doesn't let that get him down. He always has a smile on his face and is ready for your attention, whether it be a quiet snuggle or a brisk walk. He is learning to walk calmly on a leash using a gentle leader and is improving everyday. He is so proud of himself and gladly takes the treats offered to him. He appears to be at least partially housebroken as he does his biz the minute he goes out the door. He may need a refresher course. He loves to ride in the car and his people are his most favorite thing. He will make someone a loving and devoted companion and would love to be an only furry child. He would love to have a fenced in yard for a rousing game of fetch, then maybe a nap by the fire. Please come see him, he is such a sweet dog and deserves a home and family all his very own.

This big bundle of love is Burton. Burton came in showing signs of having had a difficult life. But here his life is changing, for the better. Now this sweet lug of a boy understands that meals come regularly, that walking on a leash can be a good time to do your biz, and most of all, he has friends who show him love everyday. He now has a big squishy ball that is constantly in his mouth. He just loves his toys, and has them with him all the time. He also enjoys his soft bed and is looking forward to the day when he can be the beloved companion of his very own people. He is a big boy, and strong, but also full of love and desire to please. He would love a family of his own, experienced with his breed, one that can help him to be the very best he can be. He is eager to please and will make a devoted friend. His New Years resolution is to be your very own lap dog. Yes...he is a lap dog in training, all the while chomping on his squishy green ball. Please come meet Burton...you will be glad you did! Please call Joyce today for a meet and greet.

This sweet boy is Tide! Tide is the perfect example of the Bigger they are, the Sweeter they are. Tide is four years young, just the right age to be lots of fun but without all the puppy drama. Tide came in with another dog and is now looking for a new home. Staying in such a confined space as the pound for so long has caused Tide to be a bit particular when dogs go by his run. Since he did well with other dogs in his previous family, we feel he will settle down with the right calm doggy siblings. Of course, he would love to have a new family where he is the only furry child as he loves attention, takes treats gently and loves to go for long walks or play with his people in a fenced in yard. He would love to be your outside walking buddy and then crash on the couch for a bit of TV or reading. Or maybe a nice nap in the sunbeam.... A nice puffy bed of his own would be acceptable too!

Tide is very excited when it is time to go out and he may be housebroken. He loves his new halter and gentle leader which makes it easier to walk him. Tide is looking for someone who is a BIG dog person, who can handle his strength and who will give him the love and attention he needs. He is such a love bug that you will fall in love with him immediately. Are you a lover of BIG dogs? This 80 pound baby is waiting for you....please call Joyce and set up a meet and greet! You will be glad you did! He is a great find!

Pinky (spayed and utd on shots, all negative test results) Pinky was found as a stray and brought to PAC so we don’t know anything about her past. She is a pit that is about 1.5 years old. After she came in she was treated for demodectic mange but her fur has grown back nicely and she is doing awesome! She is a great girl. Pinky is still young and spunky and can be a little high energy at times and would probably do best in an active household. Pinky can be a little picky about the dogs she likes but she is just so sweet and loves attention and being around people.
