LADY - ID#A1070884 - REDLISTED SWEETHEART
(still trying to post a picture for this one) My name is Lady and I am an unaltered female, white and black American Pit Bull Terrier mix.
The shelter thinks I am about 2 years and 1 month old. I have been at the shelter since Oct 15, 2009. Wonderful, pretty smaller pitbull, who wouldn't even come out of her kennel when she arrived. Was terrified of people. Now she loves to go for walks and most especially cuddle -- and eat snacks! Very trainable, very sweet and thrilled to bits to be with other dogs - no aggression!!! 11/22/09 -Yesterday, I had her out, off leash, in the yard and she was hopping and skipping with JOY!!! She comes back and sits, leaning against my leg to get more hugs. Amazingly sweet dog who now has joie de vivre!!! We went in the yard again today and every day, I'm amazed how she has learned to trust again and has improved by leaps & bounds, literally!!! She really has lots of love to give! HELP!!! |

CUPCAKE - ID#A1072451 - PERFECT ANGEL - REDLISTED - Hurry!!!
My name is Cupcake and I am an unaltered female, white and black Pit Bull Terrier. The shelter thinks I am about 11 months old. I have been at the shelter since Oct 22, 2009. Absolute ANGEL!!!! Gentle, sweet-natured, but not demanding of attention. Fantastic with big or small dogs and children (she was with children at an adoption event yesterday), calm, mellow, low energy dog, who would be an easy adoption into any family, with or without dogs!!!! No time to waste on this one!!
She looks more like a whippet or Saluki mix. Not sure if the breed on her listing is accurate. Beautiful girl! |
| This DOG - ID#A1075831 - RESCUE ONLY, BUT LESLIE, THE SUPERVISOR, SAYS HE HAS COME AROUND AMAZINGLY WELL AND IS NOW A WONDERFUL LITTLE DOG! - I am a neutered male, tan and white Beagle. The shelter thinks I am about 4 years old. I have been at the shelter since Nov 09, 2009. This information is less than 1 hour old. |

This DOG - ID#A1077191 - TRIPOD - THREE-LEGGED PITBULL
I am an unaltered male, brown and white Pit Bull Terrier. The shelter thinks I am about 2 years and 0 months old. I have been at the shelter since Nov 17, 2009. What a hellish two years they must have been for this boy!!! He's obviously been through the wars and has lost most of one of his back legs. He's quite mellow and nonchalant, but absolutely loved having a bath today. He's probably been on the streets for a while, by the look of him, but he's such a cool guy, who doesn't let his disability get in the way! One blue eye & one brown -- everything about him is fascinating!!

About the Bloggers
Daily Breeze reporter Donna Littlejohn has shared her homes with a succession of wonderful, funny, and occasionally difficult canines -- Muffin, Fritz, Ellie, Mercy, Pilgrim and now Cowboy, an Australian shepherd-border collie, and Tess, a border collie. From strong-willed terriers to weirdly obsessed Australian shepherds, they've invaded her world with boundless energy, wet noses, muddy paws and soggy tennis balls. But they've really brought so much more than that -- like laughter and joy, some unexpected life lessons, and more than a few tears along the way.

He now owns the loudest dog in the South Bay(Video: Rocket the Dog) and is the least popular person on his block. He spends his free time in dog parks, pet shops and always has an extra plastic bag in his pocket just in case. He also has a cat.
