Dora - A734382 - Pit Bull

Dora is a 1 year old pit bull. She has been at the Animal Care & Control Center in NYC since 10/16/07.

Dora is a very confident independent dog. She does well on her own. She is a curious dog who will wander off. She would follow me for a minute then stop and go about her own way. She's a free spirit. She's not much of a cuddle bug but she does like to play and can get excited. We started to run with her and she loved it but then she got very excited and started to jump and nibble a little too much. She just needs a strong hand and a dominant leader.

Alex - A734141 - Pit Bull

Alex is a 2 year old pit bull. He has been at the Animal Care & Control Center in NYC since 10/14/07.

Alex was found as a stray. He was laying curled up in his cage with his ears all floppy. Turns out he was not feeling so well. He threw up, but it must of been a good thing for him because after that he was one playful pup. He just loves to be held. It was challenging trying to get a shot of him without him on us because the minute we stopped he would be all over us.

We tried to play ball with him but he wasn't a ball player. He's more of a love bug and lap dog.

Alex is waiting for his forever home.

Jackie - A733516 - Pit Bull

Jackie is a 1 year old pit bull. She has been at the Animal Care & Control Center in NYC since 10/10/07.

Jackie was found as a stray. She is extremely playful. She loves to play ball. She started to get possessive of the ball, but all we had to do was "claim the ball," as Cesar would say. We kept it between our feet and blocked it from her. Then we picked it up and threw it. When she ran back with the ball she would drop it. Yeah! Before, she would run to us and then fake us out. She would act like she was going to give it to us but then run by us. Dogs are incredibly smart and cunning!

She didn't take to puddles either. She would jump over them. I guess she didn't like getting her paws wet.

Jackie would make an incredible companion.

Denim - A705891 - Pit Bull

Denim is a 10 month old pit bull. She has been at the Animal Care & Control Center in NYC since 10/15/07.

Denim is a beautiful dog. It is unfortunate that she was given up because her foster children's inspector objected to a pit bull as a pet. I guess he hasn't seen my *Kids for Pits" campaign (http://www.maxtheshelterdog.com/kidsforpits.html).

Denim is truly a playful little dog. She loves to cuddle and kiss. When she first came out of her cage she was running and pulling on the leash. But after a few times around the roof she calmed down and walked in line. The foster children are missing out on a great companion.

Mase - A733850 - Pit Bull

Mase is a 2 year old pit bull. He has been at the Animal Care & Control Center in NYC since 10/12/07. He was found as a stray.

Mase is a very dominant and strong dog. He needs some heavy duty leash manners. He loves to be massaged and cuddled and kissed. Actually, he demands it :)

I was only able to get 2 shots of him because he was a little obsessed with the camera. Everytime I took it out he would go for it.

Mase needs a strong owner with great leadership skills.
