Breed of the Month

[gaddylovesdogs]

Breed of the Month is to help dogs in need. Each month we will pick one breed. Everyone is free to post about any dog of that breed that is in need, whether is be a mix or a pure--it just has to have some of the featured breed in it.

February's Breed: American Pit Bull Terrier

[gaddylovesdogs]

Oscar
Available for adoption from Animal Action Rescue in Atlanta, Georgia
Oscar is a sweet, approx. 1 yr old Pitt that was found running around in a bad neighborhood. Oscar is a very sweet boy. He LOVES all people he meets. Oscar just wants to play and be a big, goofy, puppy. Oscar is desperately in need of a foster or forever home so he won't be stuck in boarding!

NOTE: Unable to post picture here. To view a picture of Oscar, go to the Animal Action website. His picture is under "FOSTER HOMES NEEDED TO GET DOGS OUT OF BOARDING!! PLEASE HELP THESE DOGS!". It is the fourth from the left.

Lexus is about 7 - 9yrs old and chocolate in color, she is on the small side. She has had a very hard life and deserve pampering now. This poor little girl was rescued by a volunteer when a man was bringing her into the local pound after being hit by a car and bleeding vaginally. Come to find out she was in heat and the hit bruised her insides causing clots which made her bleed a lot. She stayed at the vets over night and she showed signs of Parvo so he gave her a test and she was positive, she spent another week in quarantine at the Vets office. She was also tested for Heart Worms and it came out Positive, she has undergone treatment and is now negative. We brought her home and a week later she contracted Distemper, she has survived that also. Her blood is not making enough platelets and she is on Prednisone. The Vet bill for her is very high but she is worth it...she is a true surviver. If you ! want a sweet, laid back lap buddy that has all the will in the world to survive then this is the girl for you. Her adoption fee is the same as all others. ***URGENT*** Lexus has been in her foster home for 1 year and is urgent need of a good home.


Adoption Restrictions: Within Texas ONLY
Adoption Fee: 145.00

Jake is a fun-loving young dog who came into our program from Animal Care and Control. He loves all of his new volunteer friends, and is very loving to those around him. Jake is energetic and intelligent, and has even learned tricks like shooting hoops! He is obedience trained and would be wonderful for someone looking for an active companion!

Sex: Male
Current weight: 55 lbs.
Color: Brindle

Housebroken: Yes
Cratetrained: Yes
Good with kids: Yes

***URGENT***
Marley is a 7 year old male who urgently needs to find a new home. He was adopted by a family three years ago and by all accounts has had a great life. Sadly, his family is moving in one week to California and Marley cannot go with them. Although the famiy has tried everything to find him a new home, they have had no success. He knows basic commands and is a very people-oriented dog. His dad reports that Marley is a very quiet, mellow dog, one is loves having his ears rubbed and back scratched. He is an indoor dog, but does have a doghouse outside as well. He currently lives with kids and another dog, with whom he gets along great. If you are interested in fostering or adopting Marley, please contact A & S Rescue immediately. This boy is quickly running out of time as his family leaves for California in the week of the 10th.

Marley is available for adoption from the A & S Pit Bull and Am Staff Rescue.

Name: Bishop
Location: Antioch, Illinois
Breed: Pit Bull Terrier
Age: 11 months (as of 02/14/05)
Sex: Male
Current weight: 50 lbs.
Color: White with fawn markings

Housebroken: Yes
Cratetrained: Yes
Good with kids: Yes
Good with dogs: Yes
Good with cats: No

***UPDATE***
Bishop's dad has reported to Iraq and has left the dog in the care of his mother, who has decided that she can no longer care for him. She is going to euthanize the dog if A & S Rescue does not take him. He is a wonderful companion who gets along with other dogs and loves people. Completely housebroken and up to date on his vaccines, Bishop is ready for a new home, if we can find one in time. Please give this good boy a chance. If you are interested in adopting or fostering, please fill out an application; upon receipt, a volunteer from A & S Rescue will contact you immediately. Our foster homes are full and poor Bishop is on borrowed time- help us get some good news to his former dad in Iraq. We know that it would bring a smile to his face knowing that Bishop was adopted.

Bishop is an 11 month old male who needs to find a new home because his dad has been called for active military duty. He is great with other dogs and loves people of any age. He enjoys playing catch, gnawing on his rope toy and just hanging out with his dad. If you are interested in adopting this great boy, please submit an A & S Rescue application and one of our volunteers will contact you immediately! Thank you for your interest.
