Winona (Female)
Meet Winona! We estimate that she is about one and a half years old and a Pit Bull Terrier mix. She was brought in as a stray, to animal control, and looked like she had puppies not that long ago. Luckily, she is now spayed! This poor girl was so sad in the cage, but as soon as she saw us her face lit up and she was as bouncy as could be. Winona has big and bright personality! She's energetic and friendly, always wanting to see what you're up to or watch you do things around the house. She also enjoys a really good snuggle and nap with her people. One of her favorite things is finding a really good stick to carry around while on walks - and she'll let you know she's found a good one by galloping around (this might be why her fosters call her "Pony"!). She loves other dogs, a little too much, and gets overly-excited when she sees them. In her excitement, she will often forget her manners. We would prefer her to be the only furry family member until her new family is able to get her settled and go through training. While she was at Animal Control, she did well in play group, but her leash manners still need work. Winona is crate-trained, knows a few commands like, "sit", and is working on being potty trained. She would be the best partner-in-crime to a family that loves hiking and being outdoors. She's great on walks and has enough energy to get you to the top of that mountain! Overall, Winona is just a happy, funny girl with so much love to give. She is currently in a foster home, but would love a family of her own. Her adoption fee of $275 includes her vaccines, deworming, microchip and spay. |

Sorry, we currently do not have any other dogs for adoption. Check back soon!
* If you see Adoption Pending status next to an animal's name, it does not mean the animal is adopted, just means we are not currently taking any new applications for the animal and we are in the process of reviewing current applications. If the current applicants don't work out then the adoption pending status will be removed and other applications will be taken into considerations. Thank you for your understanding.
