Puppy (5 months 11 days) · Male · Hound / Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed · 21 mi from Goodwater








ATTENTION, EVERYONE! FRITZ HAS ENTERED THE CHAT, AND YOUR PEACEFUL HOUSEHOLD IS ABOUT TO GET A LOT MORE INTERESTING!
Hello, humans. I'm Fritz, a 5-month-old, 20.6-pound puppy with absolutely NO BUSINESS being this adorable and absolutely NO INTENTION of acting like a boring adult anytime soon.
I am currently accepting applications for a forever home, preferably one with a human who understands that puppies require toys, attention, snacks, and a suspicious amount of nonsense on a daily basis.
Am I cute? Obviously.
Am I innocent? That's between me and my lawyer.
Will I make you laugh? Almost certainly.
I'm still a puppy, which means I'm basically a furry teenager with questionable decision-making skills and a bright future in household entertainment.
AND NOW FOR THE BIG NEWS!
My adoption fee is SPONSORED and reduced to just $85!
That includes my distemper/parvo vaccine, rabies vaccine, vet exam, fecal test for parasites, general dewormer, neuter, and microchip before I go home with you.
So basically, you get a lifetime supply of puppy shenanigans for $85, and I'll even come with my important paperwork handled!
Think you're ready for this level of adorable chaos?
Call Talladega Animal Control at 256-362-5856 to schedule an appointment to meet me!
SHARE THIS POST! My future human could be scrolling Facebook right now, completely unaware that their new best friend is sitting here waiting for them.
Love,
Fritz
5 months old.

BREAKING NEWS: Lucy Is STILL Waiting for Her Forever Family!
Hi, I'm Lucy! I came to the shelter as a little 5-month-old puppy, and somehow, I’m still here. I’ve basically grown up at the shelter, and while the staff loves me, I’m really hoping my next chapter is in a home of my own!
I’m now a 40.6-pound bundle of sweetness, silliness, and puppy energy, and I’m ready to trade my kennel for a couch, a yard, and a family to call my own.
Here’s what you should know about me:
I’m sweet and friendly with people. I love attention and am always happy to make new friends.
Read more about Lucy 26/569
I LOVE other dogs! I get along well with my canine friends and would do especially well in a home with another active, playful dog who can help me burn off some of this puppy energy.
I’m playful! I may have grown up in the shelter, but I haven’t lost my goofy puppy spirit. I’m ready for someone who will give me the chance to experience all the fun things a dog should get to enjoy.
Leash walking? Let’s just say we’re still working on our relationship. I’m learning, and with patience, consistency, and someone willing to teach me, I know I can become a great walking buddy.
The truth is, I’m just a big puppy who has spent way too much of her puppyhood in a shelter. I’m ready to finally learn what it feels like to have a family, a comfy bed, toys, adventures, and someone who chooses me.
And there’s even MORE good news…
MY ADOPTION FEE IS SPONSORED AND REDUCED TO JUST $50!
That’s right — you can bring home 40.6 pounds of sweet, playful Lucy for just $50!
If you’re looking for a fun-loving dog who is good with other dogs, full of personality, and ready for a family to finally call her own, please come meet Lucy. She has waited long enough.
Call 256-362-5856 to schedule an appointment to meet Lucy!
Lucy’s been waiting for her forever family. Maybe it’s you.
P.S. Lucy still believes the leash should learn to follow her. We’re working on convincing her otherwise.

Pet info, adoption cost/detail information below:
PET DESCRIPTION: Lime Chiffon is a female Pit Bull Terrier mix, about five-months-old as of late Oct, should be in the 40-50 lb range when fully grown. She takes a bit to feel comfortable with you but once comfortable is very sweet and loves getting attention. Loves to cuddle and give kisses and will benefit by having another dog as a buddy.
One of 25 dogs we took in that were living completely INSIDE of a very small storage type building with their owner.
For many of the younger dogs it appeared they may have never been outside. While they were in horribly filthy condition coming in to us we can say they are all incredibly sweet. Yes many were very shy at first but they craved attention and are blossoming getting out to play in our play yard. They are rapidly adjusting and will be wonderful dogs in most any dog loving family.

Adopting a dog in Goodwater
Most rescues ask you to fill in an application, meet the dog, and pay an adoption fee that usually covers spaying or neutering, vaccinations and a microchip. Many are foster-based, so you'll often meet your dog in a volunteer's home rather than a shelter.
Puppies go quickly, so if you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon. Ask how big they're expected to grow, and plan for plenty of house-training and training in the first few months.
