Zeke is a male Pitbull mix of 2.5 years. Meet Zeke! He is a charming sweetheart, though he does not know his own strength. This young fella is very strong and excitable, and can be a little reactive in stressful situations. He has endured a lot of hardship in his life before the shelter, but he is a really wonderful dog who is ready to be the love of your life.

He seems to do well with cats, though he tends to be a little wary of other dogs. He would need to meet any canine pals from your home to see if they would get along. His excitability means that he needs to go to a home with children who are older than 10. He loves to nibble (not bite.) on hands and fingers, and he really likes to eat treats. However, he hates being in his kennel, but he does wonderfully outside of one.

Mrs. Myers is a female Calico between four and six years old. Meet Mrs. Myers, a beautiful calico with a bold personality. She is a mellow lady, and she likes to be left on her own for the most part. She definitely likes her personal space, but she likes to hang out in cat trees nearby.

She would need a home with no other pets, or pets who would not engage with her at all. She can be very playful, but she will be sure to let you know when she has had enough.
