Pitbull-Mix Buddies Come in Pairs

Seeking: Adoption (they are currently being fostered by the person who found them)
Personality: Very sweet, well-trained, great with dogs of all sizes and people.
Sex: Females (spayed)
Breed: Pit mixes
Location: Fayetteville, WV

These precious, non-aggressive pitbull-mix girls are quite the pair. They were found wandering around together on the Route 19 bridge in Fayetteville, WV. It is evident that they were raised in a very loving home environment and have certainly grown up together. They do everything together including sleeping (as you can see in the pictures below). They are great with people and dogs and walk great on and off leash. They have really won the heart of their foster, but she is unfortunately unable to keep them long-term. This pair must be adopted together. Based on how closely bonded they are, it would be devastating to split them up. The foster is willing to drive them to potential adopters outside of Fayetteville as well (within a day's drive). Please contact us if you are interested: action@k9pac.org

Hayden (aka "Haydie")

Hayden has found a loving, forever home with his foster family (and K9 PAC co-founders). From the first day that he arrived, Haydie fit perfectly into their little "pac" - the energy between him and the resident pups was just right. Prior to his arrival, Haydie was rescued from a high-kill shelter in rural North Carolina after his previous owners dropped him off without explanation. Since then, he was bounced around between 5 homes in 6 months, including one adoptive parent who returned him due to his separation anxiety. Haydie's story touched the hearts of his foster parents and after discovering that he was also heartworm positive and would need to go through a month of treatment & recovery, they decided that he had been through enough. This little guy needed a forever home, one that he could count on and that would shower him with love and help him to feel secure so he could overcome his behavioral "quirks". So, on April 28th (his new "birthday"), Haydie became a permanent member of the "pac" and his foster-turned-forever-parents and his new furry brother and sister could not be happier!

Bingo & Bongo

Bingo and Bongo really lucked out! They have been adopted together by a family that lives on a great big farm with tons of land for them to run, jump, and play! These rascal brothers were rescued by MJ's Animal Sanctuary from a high-kill shelter in rural North Carolina. Bingo & Bongo are very playful little boys - they enjoy wrestling with each other, playing with toys, and going for walks. When playtime is over, they are the biggest cuddle buddies EVER! We are very happy that they found such a perfect forever home.

Tonka

Tonka was found with his buddy Ocho (pictured below) on Beltway 8 in Houston. After hanging out with his foster family and doggie friends for several months, we are happy to report that Tonka has found himself a new forever family and is settling in quite nicely.

Ocho

Ocho, named after Beltway 8 in Houston where he was rescued, is now with his forever family. He had a wonderful time bonding with the locals at his foster parents' house and hanging out with his buddy Tonka (still available for adoption). Ocho is 55 lbs of young puppy love and is very happy in his forever home.

Skyy

Skyy was being fostered by a friend of K9 PAC while in DC for an internship. This 2-year-old Pit-Terrier mix loved to play with the other dogs that she lived with and absolutely adores people. She was such a good pup and everyone fell in love with her. When her foster mom had to leave DC and Skyy needed to go back to the rescue, an employee at the rescue decided to adopt her! Skyy is now very happy with her adoring family.

Walter

To the left is a picture of Walter at a high-kill shelter in West Virginia. PAWS Rescue of Northern Virginia, an all foster rescue in northern Virginia were looking for a foster home that could take Walter and save him from being euthanized. He was set to be euthanized on a Saturday, and on Friday morning K9 PAC received an email from our fan & friend, Pansy, who passed the adoption flyer on to a co-worker. Her co-worker's girlfriend fell in love with Walter and decided to adopt him!

Adoption Update (November 24, 2009):
Before arriving at his new home, Walter was treated to a fluff & buff bath, and a pedicure! Waiting for him at home was a cushy new bed that was all his own, and a big basket of squeaky toys!!!! He is very happy and is following Mommy & Daddy everywhere they go. Mommy is off all this week, so that's an extra special treat for Walter.

Walter Update (January 2010):
Walter and his family have bonded quickly, and he seems quite comfortable knowing that this is his forever home.

Steve (aka Stampede)

The top right picture below shows Steve (formerly known as Stampede) before he was rescued by a volunteer with Fences for Fido, a non-profit that builds fences for dogs in need. FFF aims to provide dogs a life of freedom by removing their chains and building them fences so they are able to run and play in their own yards. Steve was one of those cases, but it became apparent that his owner did not want him and that even unchained, he would not have the life that he deserved. So, his owner surrendered Steve to the FFF volunteer who fostered him.

ADOPTION UPDATE: Steve has been adopted by a wonderful family that absolutely adores him! You can certainly tell the difference in his attitude between the first picture and the rest! Pictures of Steve at home are courtesy of Fences For Fido:
