Bambu says "where are you?" He is a handsome white and grey perfect pup with a heart of gold. He is so friendly and jovial. It is a real pleasure hanging with Bambu who seems to just enjoy everything! Bambu was adopted from HRA a few years ago but somehow ended up back here. His precious nature is still the same so he is so ready for a loving home where he is cherished. He is social, sweet and he thinks he's a lap dog so make room on the couch and bed for this great doggie! And this big fella has a tail wag that won't quit. Bambu is one of those amazing dogs that deserves and gives the best. Meet him soon. He is looking for you!

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.

The Pit Bull Terrier is a resilient and loyal breed known for its muscular build and loving nature. Originally bred for bull baiting and later dog fighting, Pit Bulls today are beloved family pets cherished for their gentle temperament and playful personality. With proper training and socialization, Pit Bull Terriers make affectionate companions that thrive on human interaction. Recognized for their strength and agility, these dogs require regular exercise and mental stimulation to channel their energy positively, reinforcing their reputation as devoted and trainable pets.
