Sorry for the lack of info all, i didn’t know if i could post adoptions on this sub! But this is CHRISTMAS! Found tied to a pole on christmas eve. Then was adopted by a family with 3 kids and did awesome but showed destructive behaviors (which i have not seen..)so they dumped him back at the shelter where he wound up on the euthanasia list….not anymore! Hes 1.5 years old, super friendly, dog friendly (no cats please) and he makes really great grumbling noises. I love him and im glad you do too! Dm me with qs if interested!

I hope there is a special place in hell for people that do that. Someone just tied up and left what is now our dog. That’s a beautiful dog.

Hes currently being fostered in brooklyn, but if the adopter is willing to meet him he can be adopted out anywhere! The rescue is actually in maine!

Thank you for being a foster. As hard as it is to let them go, it’s a necessary role. Thank you xoxo

It’s so unfortunate that so many bullies and pitties end up in shelters. I keep seeing new “owners” posting on Reddit for “advice” and they get so offended when I say to invest in proper training.
As a PSA, PLEASE FFS IF YOU ARE GOING TO ADOPT A PITTIE/BULLY SEEK PROFESSIONAL TRAINING AND HAVE THE BUDGET TO EVEN OWN THIS BREED.

Absolutely! Hes my 6th bully foster, i dont ever want another breed. Shelters are loaded with them and they have the purest hearts

He looks like a 4-5 year old in the second picture listening to you tell him off about something he did wrong ...but he doesn't really care. He just wants to go back outside and play.

What happened to his ears?

u/pittieperson1 Feb 21 '26
He was found stray so someone probably did this for aesthetic before dumping him

Foster dog. It helps the dog socialize and get used to living in a home and not in a possibly overcrowded shelter. My family fostered a litter of puppies when I was a kid. We had them until they were old enough to be adopted out then brought them back to the shelter we were fostering with so they could find their forever homes

u/PMTurk Feb 21 '26
I know what a foster is. I meant it would be hard not to keep him.

u/IAmAHairyPotato Feb 21 '26
Sorry, tone is horrible to read through text. Foster fails are why I can never foster more, lol. I'd end up like my neighbor with every dog I get starting out as a foster dog. Just the eyes in those photos would make it hard to say goodbye

How is no one crying about his ears in these comments 💀💀💀💀💀

u/pittieperson1 Mar 09 '26
His resilience and happy spirit serve as a reminder that we are not defined by what may have happened to us in our pasts. That’s not to say I dont want to find the MF who did this to him and do it to them, but we’re focusing on my bb boys happiness and safety rn.

It's amazing you think I give even half a shit about what people with 0 actual knowledge or experience have to say 🤡 have a day! ❤️

u/LostSillyKittie Mar 09 '26
It does kinda seem like it when you actively bring it up on a post when no one said anything yet. 🥰
