Pit Bull    Age: Puppy

Compatibility: Good w/ Most Dogs, Good w/ Most Cats, Good w/ Adults (Not Kids) 
Personality: High Energy, Somewhat Dominant 
Health: Neutered, Vaccinations Current, Fearful/Anxious 

    I rescued Beau at about 7 months old. Prior to coming to live with me he had been neglected (left in a kennel with no food/water and without being let out to potty for 2 weeks). After a couple months of being with me, I noticed that he began to show some signs of aggression, growling when strangers would try to pet him. Over the last year I have spent several thousand dollars trying to get him help. He has made alot of progress but still has alot of fear towards strangers. After just a few visits, he gets used to people and does fine but I would not trust him to go to a family with young children. I recently found out that I am moving ... (Read More)overseas and cannot take him with me. I would like to find a potentional adopted to get to know him throughout the summer and ensure they are a good fit before I leave him. Please email me if you are interested in meeting Beau. (Less)

Pit Bull    Age: Adult

Compatibility: Good w/ Most Dogs, Good w/ Most Cats, Good w/ Kids and Adults 
Personality: Average Energy, Submissive 
Health: Needs to be Neutered, Vaccinations Current 

    Izreal is an amazing dog he showed up on our door step last summer and we decided to keep him. His previous owner was incarcerated so the family that was suppose to be taking care of him was not doing a good job and asked if we would want to keep him. SO we did he is chipped and it is in our name but I know that can be changed. He got our Pit Bull/Boxer/American Bulldog pregnant and we are keeping one of the pups and as I can see the pup is going to be a dominate male. Izreal is an old man but still tries to be the dominate which is expected but he doesn't bite or anything like that but he has started marking in the house. We have planned on ... (Read More)getting him fixed but with 3 other dogs in the house I feel like it might be a bit much for the old man, and he has gone so long with out being neutered I just find it kinda wrong but thats me a male speaking, so we just would like to find him a good home to go to that will treat him good, he is a huge lover which at sometimes can be annoying he is a huge attention hog :) He is very well mannered and a lover. If you are looking for a very calm chill loving pit bull he is defiantly the one for you. Also if he doesn't get adopted if anyone has any ideas of what I can do to keep him from marking in the house that would be very appreciated as well. (Less)

Animal ID: #12-11-14-00223Pinka (female)

Lab Mix    Age: Puppy

Compatibility: Good w/ Most Dogs, Not Good w/ Cats, Good w/ Kids and Adults 
Personality: Average Energy, Average Temperament 
Health: Spayed, Vaccinations Current 

    I was abandoned by my owner at the beginning of the fall school term. So was my momma and grandmomma and a second litter of puppies my momma was having a hard time feeding. You see we had to scrounge around and beg for food. We were fortunate enough to have a young couple teaching this year and the kids let them know that the family left us. So the teacher called CCI and asked if we could be taken there to find new homes. A lot of talking was going on about the dog community in Alaska trying to change the State Laws to help prevent people from abandonment. I guess you could say we are the post dogs for this hugh effort. Anyway, my grandmomma ... (Read More)was adopted by a younge school teacher and is doing very well. My little brothers and sisters all went to a rescue in Anchorage and also were quickly adopted. Sadly the foster homes in Anchorage do not want either myself or my momma in their homes. Why...?...we have been so hungry at times that cats are nurishment for our hungry bellies. I am very sorry for this but what were we supposed to do...?...The woman who cares for us cannot let us be indoors because we can't help getting excited when her cats are near. Even in a kennel, we will bark and growl and try to scratch our way out. If those darn cats would stay out of sight things would be just fine. My momma and I will kennel nicely for a dog cookie and even sleep quietly all night if it were not for those cats. You know they actually sit right in front of my door and snicker at me because I can't get them. So if you don't have any cats, I would love to be your favorite 'person' and would love to cuddle with you. I would also like to go to doggy school to learn all the wonderful things dog teachers can help me with. Teachers are my favorite people since it was teachers that helped me go some place where I am brought yummy food two times a day, can you imagine being fed everyday...I think it is the best...

PIease Read Before Adopting a Dog in Alaska
    Dogs can make good pets in Alaska if they match your IifestyIe. Dogs have a reputation for being "man's best friend" for excellent reasons. Dogs are wonderful companions. Many breeds, in addition to being affectionate, devoted members of the family, are useful working dogs and guardians. Most dogs form tight bonds with their humans, and need to be cared for like the valuable family members they are. But sadly, some owners do not live up to the responsibility and involvement it takes to properly care for a dog throughout its life. Dogs can become the victims of neglect or active abuse. Some dogs receive tender, attentive care from their owners, but no longer have a home after their owner passes away or experiences a major life event that makes him unable to keep his dog. There are many more dogs than there are homes for dogs, and dogs that are not spayed or neutered can accidentally produce large numbers of puppies, exacerbating overpopulation. For this reason, three to four million dogs, many of them perfectly healthy and wonderful animals, are euthanized in the U.S. each year.

    Many people get excited about owning a new dog, decide to get a puppy, and then pick one out at a pet shop or visit a breeder with a new litter. However, there are so many wonderful, friendly dogs in need of adoption, including puppies and purebreds. Some of these dogs might even be a better fit for a family than a new puppy; for instance, some adult dogs in need of adoption are already housebroken and obedience trained. Adoption is typically much less expensive than purchasing a dog. People who adopt dogs find the experience extremely rewarding, bond very closely with their dogs, and have the added satisfaction of knowing that one less animal has to be euthanized. If your family is ready for a canine companion, please consider adopting a dog!
