Pit Bull Terrier and Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption

Say hi to Figgy Pudding... aka "Figgy Piggy" and "Figlet"! Figgy is a professional toy hoarder. She patrols the yard like a slightly overweight mall cop making sure every toy is exactly where she left it: in her mouth. Or under her belly. Or buried in the couch cushions.

She's friendly with kids and big dogs only--small dogs and cats? Absolutely not. Figgy didn't get this size by sharing snacks with pipsqueaks.

Looking for a canine roommate with the personality of a diva, the body of a bean bag, and the soul of a squeaky-toy-slaying warrior?

Figgy Pudding is here to roll into your life and steal your heart (and probably your dinner).More information? Call Marion Area Humane Society at 740-389-6548 or email at manager@mahspets.org

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.
