One-year-old pit bull mix in North Carolina has a sweet disposition and needs a good home
Three-legged dog up for adoption after a rough start in life
Chief is a six-year-old dog looking for his forever home. He was mistakenly thought to be a wild animal In Louisiana — and shot in the back leg. Now in New Jersey, the Shepherd mix is ready to find a loving home.
A one-year-old dog was left at the doorstep of a local animal care and control center — and is now looking for a forever home.
Laa-Laa is a pit bull mix who was abandoned at the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Animal Care & Control center in Charlotte, North Carolina.
The 50-pound dog was brought inside the center as she cowered and trembled, according to the center.

The center speculates that she had very little socialization during her first year of life.
Due to this, Laa-Laa continues to be a nervous dog and is seeking a caring and loving home — one that will be patient with her as she opens up and develops.
