Pit Bull Terrier and Labrador Retriever Dogs Available for Adoption

Meet Taquito: Taquito is a little 3 month old (as of February 2026) bully breed / lab mix (best guess) that weighs about 10 pounds. Taquito was found as a stray in Memphis and was taken to a shelter. He was suffering from hair loss due to a flea allergy and was missing his momma terribly. We were able to scoop him up from the shelter and get him into a foster home with our rescue. Taquito is being fostered in the south and would love to catch the next freedom ride north to Pennsylvania to meet more prospective families! Taquito is a little bundle of fun! Taquito wants to play most of the time and sleep in your lap the rest of the time. Taquito likes playing with the other dogs in his foster home and loves playing tug of war. After getting into his foster home, Taquito took to regular meals really well and quickly gained some much needed weight. Taquito's hair is growing back and he's as playful as any puppy has ever been. As a puppy, Taquito will need some patience while he works on his house training. We would love for Taquito to have a home with a fenced in yard for him to run and play freely. Taquito is up to date on his puppy shots and already neutered. If you are interested in loving on this playful pup, please go to Charlie's Crusaders website (www.charliescrusaders.org) to fill out an application.

CURRENT LOCATION: Mississippi, awaiting transport to PA.
