This sweet pup was found March 2nd with his sister, abandoned along with their deceased parents on the side of the road and left to die. We foster dogs and cats and had room for these poor souls to eat, get fixed, and get through those cold weeks while learning some basic training like "no", "down", and "fetch". The female has been adopted. The male is interacting with small dogs and several cats currently and is getting along great with our permanent residents. He is approximately 4 months, 20 -30 lbs, and appears to be a pitweiler. We have not named him as we find it is best to wait for the permanent owners to take on that bonding process.

Please if you are interested reach out to me by texting or calling 828-305-2632. Please leave your name in your message.
