THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED. CONGRATULATIONS TO THERESA SPAID AND THANK YOU TO EVERYBODY THAT ENTERED. YOU HELPED MAKE MY FIRST GIVEAWAY A HUGE SUCCESS! PLEASE REMEMBER THAT JESSICA, THE PIT MIX, IS STILL LOOKING FOR A FOREVER HOME…
You already know that I have a soft spot for Cocker Spaniels, but Pitbulls tug at my heartstrings too because there are SO many of them killed every single day in New York City. If you saw the photos of dogs slated for euthanasia, you would be stunned to learn that the majority of them are Pitbulls or Pit mixes. They have a bad rap and everybody knows it. History dictates that Pitbulls were bred to fight but let’s be clear — the humans (not the dogs) are to blame for that. It’s not the breed, it’s the owner. Pitbulls tend to be extremely energetic, so if you’re thinking about adopting one – educate yourself about the breed first and be prepared to give them plenty of exercise.
Now, let me introduce you to one very special Pit mix located here in New York.
Jessica is an incredibly sweet 10 month old Pitbull Terrier waiting for her forever home with Second Chance Rescue.
This poor girl has already experienced severe neglected in her short life. Not only did she just have a litter of puppies before being rescued, but Jessica is also suffering (and recovering) from mange. Despite her condition, she is beautiful inside and out with a playful personality and gorgeous amber eyes!
Jessica is heartworm negative and up to date with all of her shots. She has been spayed and currently takes Ivermectin to treat the spots of mange that have not yet disappeared. Jessica LOVES people and cuddling. As you can see below, she loves to give kisses too!
Jessica’s foster mom says that she loves to burrow under the covers and makes the cutest piggy snuffle noises as she settles. How can you resist this face?
Jessica does have a few guarding issues, so it’s recommended that she find an adult-only home with no other dogs so she can be queen of her castle. Jessica is crate and house trained, knows “sit” and loves playing fetch with all of her toys, but as soon as you sit down, she’ll plop down on your lap and take a nap! Her current foster family believes she has a ton of love to give and just needs some consistency.
If you are interested in giving Jessica a loving forever home, please contact Second Chance Animal Rescue as soon as possible. She is waiting to hear from you!
