Amigo would love to be your friend.

Amigo was living on a chain until he came to the BAAC.  And like most dogs on chains, he was so happy when he got off the chain that he was very jumpy and energetic.  In the few short weeks he has been with us, Amigo has calmed down and feels more confident that he won't be hooked back up to that lonely existence on the end of a chain.

Amigo is a real sweetie and just wants to please and be with someone.  His tail had been previously docked but what there is of it wags and wags. We think he will do great with most everyone and with other dogs.  He may do well with cats also, but he hasn't been tested with cats yet.

He's growing like a weed and would love to grow up being someone's best friend.

Greg is at that less-than-graceful stage which makes him even more adorable when he gives you kisses.

He likes playing with other dogs and appears to be a little afraid of cats, but that doesn't mean he can't learn to play with dog-friendly cats.

Greg is really a very amiable fellow and will do well in a home that will provide him with lots of attention, exercise and praise. Of course, lots of love is important too!

Handsome is a Boxer mix pup under a year old.

He's quiet but active and playful.  Handsome acts like he wants to be loved, but hasn't found that special person yet. 

Miss Patti has come a long, long way in a short time.

We're not really sure of Miss Patti's age because she was in such poor shape when she arrived.

Miss Patti had been on her own for a while.  She was emaciated, had eye infections and many areas on her body where the skin was red, irritated and infected.

Miss Patti had also had a lot of litters of puppies in her life and her teeth were in bad shape which made it difficult to age her. 

She is the type of dog that is often bred over and over as a money maker by selling her pups for any number of reasons (fighting, security dogs, etc.). Patti's back legs were very weak and although they have shown improvement, it's doubtful they will ever be at full strength. Dogs that have been chained or confined for long periods of time often have this problem because their muscles atropy with lack of exercise and movement.

Miss Patti had obviously chewed on objects that wore her teeth down badly (which could be anything from wires, cages, stones or even cans when she was starving for food).

But we're happy to say that Miss Patti's previous sad life is over. She's gained some weight and truly enjoys sitting beside you to be petted and cuddled.

All Miss Patti needs now is to find that loving adopter who will give her a wonderful home for the rest of her life.
