"FLOSSIE" silly, sensitive, lovable, active young Pitmix

ADOPTED!

I am soft and sweet young lady looking for someone to protect me and keep me safe. I am an active cuddle bug when I am out of the kennel and I really dislike noise and barking dogs. I am still young and in need of gentle reward based training.
 

 


 

 
 
 
 


A busy household may be too much for me but a loving family with a gentle social dog may be a great fit. The shelter is requiring we take training classes or have a private training consult with a certified trainer that utilizes all positive training methods. 
 
 I am about 1 year of age and I weigh an athletic 36lbs. Here's my MCAS weblink

 

"MAKO" happy, sensitive, athletic and AWESOME and little guy!

ADOPTED!
 
I am ready to be your active and outgoing little companion! I am friendly and I move through life super fast! I can jump high, run far, and climb tall buildings in a single bound....well, almost. I am looking for a real dog lover who has a sense of humor and is interested in doing fun things with their new dog.
 
I'm very cute!
 
I can jump as high as this door window to look out!

I love to meet people, I'm a friendly guy!

I LOVE to train and I am super smart! I am friendly but can be a bit much so I am looking for a home with a single person, couple, or family with kids over the age of 8 years old and NO cats. I think other dogs are a hoot and would enjoy a playful canine sibling. I am about (age n/a - young) years of age and am a pint-sized super hero at 16lbs.
 
Here's my MCAS weblink. Hope a good Indoor active Home will come see me!

"TONY" awesome cuddly young Pitbull

ADOPTED!!!

I am a stubby, cheerful, and pretty well behaved boy looking for a home! I seem to really enjoy meeting new people and will lean into you for petting.
 
 
 
I love to be pet behind my left ear :)

 I also enjoy meeting other friendly dogs. But I am not a good match for a home with cats. The shelter will require that we take reward based training classes together as part of my adoption. I have a few basics but we could both benefit from polishing things up a bit. (ps - I'm scared of some things like cameras......
 
...but my kisses are sweet, and I'm a lover boy)


 I am about 2 years of age and I weigh a stout 50lbs. Ask about me today! Here's my MCAS weblink


"CECILY "- darling Black Lab mix teenager

ADOPTED! 

Hi the shelter named me Cecily, a pretty and delicate name for me. I really am a delicate girl that needs more experience in this big old world. To help make those experiences positive the shelter is asking that we take reward based classes together. I like to think I am a smart girl so this should be a lot of fun for all of us.

 
 
 


 
Please won't you help me feel safe for the Holidays? My stats: I am a black with white female Labrador Retriever mix, approximately 10 months old and weigh about 46. lbs.

"SIERRA" MCAS Alumni - wishing you Happy Holidays!

SIERRA UPDATE!!
 
 

Happy Holidays from Sierra!
adopted in June 2013

Here's a wonderful update note from Sierrra's Mom...   
"Sierra is very spoiled now. We Love her very very much. I am so blessed to have this girl in our lives. She lays on my lap every night and watches tv with me."






 
June 2013 It is with tears of joy that i am writing to announce that after 6 months in the shelter, (and 1 month in an amazing foster home) after being seized because of neglect, Sierra has been adopted into the Taj Mahal of doggy homes!  Animal advocates themselves, Brian & Marla (Sierra's new mom & dad) have created a dog paradise that is their 3 acre, fully fenced, home.  We have Angela Adams, director of Born Again Pit Bull Rescue, to thank for referring these amazing adopters to Sierra.  Thank you Angela for always having the dog's best interest in mind!  Thank you Roxy for being an amazing foster, and thank you Marla & Brian for opening your home to rescue dogs!!!!
 
See her new digs in the video below!!




Thank you Martha Russell for Sierra's new family photos!!!




"DEEBO" someone is sure to love you!!


This young teenager (9 months old) is a  fabulous boy outside of his kennel. He is a sweetheart, likes people and other dogs and just needs a geeky type trainer to show him the ropes - he is smart, responsive and loves training!




  
I am an active and outgoing dude looking for an active home! I have the whole world in front of me and I am hoping for a home that will go on the journey with me and include reward based classes as part of my adoption. 


 
 
I am eager to meet new people and my previous caregivers said I would go to the door when I had to go outside and potty. I lived briefly with a small dog and did well. I am about 9 months of age and I weigh a growing and athletic 54lbs. Ask about ME today! Here's my MCAS weblink

"JACK" awesome Pitmix

 ADOPTED!

Life can be tough for a young dog without guidance. We are often misunderstood and need a friend to help us get by. I am in need of daily exercise to burn off energy and an adopter who is interested in taking me to the required training classes.
 

 
 

 

  I am best suited for a home with kids over the age of 10 years and not cats. If there are other dogs in the home, my best match would be with a tolerant and social adult female dog. 







I am young, only a little over 1 year of age and I need your love and attention. Ask about me today! I weigh 60 lbs.  Here's my MCAS weblink.

"VELOUR" - Rex bunny - a wonderful soft touch

"TRANSFERRED" to OHS! 
hope you can visit Velour soon, she is lovely!


Hi there! I am a nifty young bunny named Velour and that is exactly how soft I am. A nice person found me in their yard and realized I needed a real home for the winter.

 
 
 

 

I am friendly and handleable and very, very pettable. I am a mini-rex and I weigh about 4.5 lbs and am only a year old, with luxurious black fur. I am litterbox trained.
 

 Are you looking for a wonderful rabbit companion? Stop by the shelter and ask to meet me, Velour, today. Here her weblink

"WIZARD" talented Aussie mix!



Hi there, my name is Wizard and I will mesmerize you with my slight of hand! I know some tricks and I am ready to learn some more. A smart dog like me needs an owner dedicated to giving my lots to do!
 
 
 
 
 
 I can jump real high, so you can't leave me unattended in the backyard, or I might end up here again! It took me awhile to get used to the folks here at the shelter and I was a bit flinchy. So a home with children over the age of 10 would be best, and I hope you understand that you will need to take things slowly at first.


 
If you are looking for a super smart companion, please ask to meet me today! I am about 5 years old and I weigh 42lbs. Here's my MCAS weblink
