Here's more about Joy_Me:

This pup will snuggle with you on the couch. She will need an owner who is patient as she gets used to her space, create rules and bathroom usage. Joy_Me doesn't have any major health concerns, but she has a minor heart murmur. It doesn't require any medication at this point, and might not ever.

Mya, pit bull terrier

Mya is a female pit bull terrier dog currently housed at Pitties and Purrs.

Mya is happy to keep company with other dogs. Good news: She is already house-trained. Mya is already spayed, and she has had all her shots.

Here's more about Mya:

Mya is a 7-year-old pit bull terrier, and weighs around 56 pounds. A home with a male dog to match her energy level and size would be ideal. Mya is also currently a little protective over her space and food, so she would need to be separated from other dogs while eating. She would also do best in a home with children over the age of six as sometimes she can accidentally knock little ones over. Mya has a lot of love to give and enjoys short walks around the neighborhood, including car rides and snuggling on the couch.

Sahara, Rhodesian ridgeback and American Staffordshire terrier mix

Sahara is a darling female Rhodesian ridgeback and American Staffordshire terrier mix currently residing at Needful Souls Dog Rescue.

She's already house-trained. She is also spayed, and has had all her shots.

Here's more about Sahara:

Sahara is a dynamic young little lady who loves to play and run around. Sahara would do best in a home where she is the only dog. She is a little over 2-years-old and weighs 60 pounds. She is fully vetted, spayed and micro-chipped. Sahara would be an amazing companion to an active person or family that loves the outdoors, including hiking, running and water activities. Daily 30 to 60 minutes walks twice a day would also suffice. Sahara walks well on the leash. She knows her commands and is very loyal and protective of her people.
