prefers calmer dogs

Benji is a sweet and gentle 4-year-old Labrador Retriever mix looking for a patient and understanding family to call his own. He can be a bit shy and fearful at first, especially in new situations, but once he warms up to you, he'll be your best friend for life! He's very treat-motivated, which makes training a breeze. Benji loves to play fetch and tug-of-war, especially with his favorite tennis ball! Due to his timid nature, Benji would do best in a quiet adult-only home with a securely fenced yard where he can relax and feel safe. He has shown to be dog-tolerant but would need slow and careful introductions to any potential furry siblings. With a little love and patience, Benji will blossom into the most loyal and loving companion. If you think you can give Benji the loving home he deserves, please come meet him today!!

no cats

Hey there! I'm Rosa, a lovely Pit Bull who just arrived back at the shelter, eager to find my forever home. I should go to a home without any cats and have been shown to be dog selective so any introductions should be slow and proper! At first, I may be a little shy as I adjust to my new surroundings, but it won't take long for me to warm up to you. With a gentle approach and some patience, I'll soon be by your side, showering you with love and affection. I'm a smart girl who's eager to learn and please, so I'll thrive in a home where socialization, positive reinforcement, and rewards-based training are used to help me become the best furry friend I can be. If you're seeking a loyal and loving canine companion who's ready to blossom with the right guidance, I'm Rosa, eagerly waiting to become part of your family. Let's meet and see if we're the perfect match for each other! 🌹
