Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Not good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
I found this dog in the road. He was very scared. He is crate trained. Sits on command. Good on leash. Great with kids. Not food aggressive. Gentle to take biscuits or bones. House broken. Very playful. He loves people and being around them. He will only bark for a minute when you leave him unattended in his crate. He is young. No fleas, teeth in good shape. He willingly got in the shower on his own for a bath. He is an all around great dog. He has a nice disposition, my kids love him. They lay on him, take away his toys and bones with no problem. He usually doesn’t jump, but sometimes (when he is super excited). He does not like my dog. I don’t know how he would be with my cats, but I am not willing to try. I do not want to put this poor guy through the stress of the pound. He doesn’t deserve that, but I do not want to take the chance of him hurting one of my other pets. I don’t know that he would, but I am not willing to find out. It’s a shame, because he is such a wonderful dog.

Bella

American Pit Bull Terrier Spaniel (Unknown Type)

Female, Adult
Dothan, AL
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Bella is a cheery little butterball, I have raised her since she was a puppy. To keep her from being mistreated I took her into my small home with my busy schedule with her brother Toby. She is high energy, fully spaid, but she tends not to listen to commands until about the fifth or sixth time you say it. She has some aggression towards other dogs that arent her litter mates. She is not fully house trained yet and now spends most of her time outside in the yard. She like her brother is a chewer, I would like to rehome them together so that they can have some level of comfort but I understand if that cant happen. She is a lovable butterball that I just cant keep around at our new house due to agression concerns with the neigbors dog and my Girlfriend. There is not constant aggression, it is random which has me concerned because I cant always be around to correct the behavior and train it.

Great Pyrenees Labrador Retriever

Female, Young
Dothan, AL
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
She was born on December 19, 2017. She's always lived outside. Loves to run around and play. Likes to dig holes. I hope she finds a home where she's able to run freely in the yard and have fun. She will jump on you. She isn't aggressive at all. She does like to bark at literally anything but that's all she does. She doesn't like baths, but she will lay down for it. Then she won't budge so it'll be hard to get anywhere but the top of her. She really is a sweet sweet girl.

Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Rascal is estimated to be between 8 months and 1 year old. He was found running frantic in the middle of Hwy. 231 south. He LOVES people. He has been completely vetted. He is neutered. Happy and healthy. He has not been evaluated around other animals but had no issues with the animals in the vet’s office. We are working on leash training. He will not soil his pen. His breed profile is the vet’s best guess.
