PLEASE NOTE: FENCED IN YARD REQUIRED   Meet Alcie:  Alcie is believed to be a terrier mix around 2-3 years old.  Alcie was found abandoned living in a cellar with her pups when the family moved away and left them behind.  Alcie is a little shy and timid when you first meet her and would do best in a calm home with a family that has lots of love and patience. Alcie met Sadie another foster pup and they had fun playing together so we believe she would do good with other dogs her size and children 10 years or older.  Alcie does well on a leash but still needs a little work.

Meet Briggs: Briggs is a 3 year old brindled neutered male pit bull mix.  Briggs  is a happy guy who enjoys being around people but is not necessarily snuggly. He has come a very long way in his trust in humans but still hesitates with touch around his head and neck. Perhaps some day he will let go of the negative past experiences that have led him to be wary of touch. Brigg's person should understand this and not impose affection for which he is not ready, they should use gentle hands and over time this will win his favor. When he trains and walks with his trainers, his face is happy and his tail wags. He loves receiving praise for jobs well done and certainly enjoys treats as well. Briggs is extremely proficient in his obedience skills and workouts and really enjoys the stability, predictability and positive affirmations that they bring to his life. In our hopes for the best possible future for Briggs, we are seeking a person or couple who has a good balance of head and heart. Logic and love can and should live together to help guide him in the most positive, proactive and balanced way possible in order to teach him how to navigate this world. Spoiling will not allow him to see a leader, and that is what makes a dog like Briggs secure… positive, fair, calm and balanced leadership. Love through leadership will bond Briggs to a new family and win his respect, love and loyalty.  Briggs had been attacked many times by a neighborhood dog who had broken out of its fence.  A few dogs in his life have also roughed him up in aggressive play and his trust in dogs has diminished. He can be trained, handled and walked around dogs safely but to ensure his complete rehabilitation, a home with no dogs is necessary.  While we haven’t seen him around small animals or children to evaluate his behavior in those situations, a home with no children or other animals would allow Briggs less distractions as well as allow the human the utmost in quality time with him. Briggs has been with Tall Tails Training & Boarding for 2+ weeks and has excelled in his learning curve and trust rehabilitation. Counter-conditioning his previous experiences, de-sensitizing him to stress, instinct and impulse control along with building an inner calmness in Briggs have been the focus of his training program. Owner training (in the form of private lessons) is necessary and will be included in the new foster or owner’s experience with Briggs. Briggs shows great promise for being a wonderful companion with a loving and balanced human.  If you are interested in adopting Brock please go to our website at charliescrusaders.org and fill out our adoption application.  show less
