We believe Ansley to be an American Pit Bull Terrier mix. Estimated to be around 2 years old, Ansley weighs in at a snuggly 53 pounds. She is a rescue, so her exact age and breed are unknown and cannot be guaranteed.
Ansley is the perfect combination of adventure buddy and cuddle queen. She'll chase the sunrise with you, then snooze in your lap by sunset. Always ready to match your energywhether you're out exploring new places, crossing county lines, or just enjoying a quiet night inshes right there with you every step of the way. If you work from home, shes perfectly content to entertain herself with a toy or chew bone, take a nap, and not cause any distractions. But the moment you're ready to go for a walk, play fetch in the backyard, or head out on a road trip, shes already at the door. Ansley is her name, and fetch is her game! Truly, she's the best of both worlds.

Ansley is uber smartbut not in the high-energy, never-stop kind of way. Shes medium energy, prioritizes naps and snuggles, and has a wonderful ability to learn, solve puzzles, and read your cues. Our behavior team says shed be a fantastic candidate for agility training. Shes food-motivated, takes treats gently, and is eager to pleasethe trifecta of trainability! Ansley already knows several commands like sit, stay, come, down, and load up. Shes crate trained, potty trained, and knows how to use a doggy doorbonus points for Ansley! Shes also great on a leash. She loves walksthe second she sees that leash in your hand, shes wiggling with joy, pacing between you and the door with a huge smile that will guilt you into accidental walks. She's also an amazing tandem walkerafter a quick sniff, she's ready to stroll side-by-side with almost any dog. If youve got a hiking crew, a run club, or dog-loving friends, Ansley is ready to join the adventure.

Social and friendly, Ansley is a people-lover to her core. She gets excited meeting new faces and makes friends everywhere she goes. We know we sound repetitive calling her a travel buddy and passenger princess, but its genuinely who she is! Shes incredible in the car. We joke that her slogan would be drive-thru queen, highway honey, or cruise control cutie. She adores car ridesshort, long, and anything in between. Whether youre heading to the corner store or crossing state lines, Ansley is happily riding shotgun, watching the world go by. She's the ultimate adventure dog and such a charmer that every outing becomes her own personal meet-and-greet. She doesnt bark or go nuts when seeing dogs through the car window, and she waits patiently without getting antsy. Every so often, shell lean in for a little lovebecause thats just her vibe.

Ansley is dog-friendly and does great with dogs both her size and much smaller. She previously lived with a tiny Chihuahua and met our 12-lb tester dog Mateo (a scruffy little guy). Mateo is used to meeting all kinds of dogs, and even he felt immediately at ease with Ansley. They shared space and affection peacefully. She wasnt all up in his face eitherjust happily coexisting, entertaining herself with a toy, or relaxing. With dogs her size, shes still chill but will engage in some fun play too. She enjoys the company of happy-go-lucky dogs who are tolerant of the occasional roughhousing but also know how to wind down.

Ansley would also be perfectly happy as your one and only. She doesnt need another dog to feel secure or burn off energyshes confident, well-balanced, and adaptable. That said, she would prefer a home without cats.

Ansley is also great with kids ages 4, 5, 7, and 11. She loved spending time with 11-year-old Elijah! She was immediately comfortable around him and enjoyed running in the yard, playing fetch, doing agility obstacles, and practicing commands. After building a bond with Elijah, she met his little brother Kobe (4 years old) and their friend Eleanor (5 years old), and she did wonderfully. She gently took treats, responded to commands, and shared a few sneaky kisses. The more time she spent with the younger kidsespecially with Elijah nearbythe more confident and relaxed she became. Elijah was fun, respectful of her space, predictable in his movements, and kept her brain and body engaged. She clearly adored him. Ansley would do best in a home with kids aged 7+, and with slower introductions, she can absolutely thrive around younger ones too.
Ansleys dream home would have a big backyard for zoomies, space for fetch, and a sunny spot to lounge in (bonus points if theres a kiddie pool!). Shed thrive with someone who has an active, outdoorsy lifestyleshes a go anywhere, do anything kind of dog. Brave, loyal, confidentyour perfect travel buddy and road trip bestie. So, if you love camping, road tripping, and living life on the go, Ansley is hands down your girl.
Adopt Ansley and bring endless love, laughter, and adventure into your life!

https://g.co/kgs/UQ5Pyai We care deeply about making the perfect match between dog and family for long term success.
Our rescue has a 2 acre property in Texas where we assess every animal with trainers on staff, we modify behavior as needed, and create individualized behavior plans to help prepare dogs for their future families including crate training, potty training, leash walking, etc. Our fosters are able to attend group trainings and socialization play groups to keep dogs adoption-ready.

Our commitment to comprehensive medical care sets us apart. We've received glowing feedback from veterinarians who commend our dedication to ensuring the health and well-being of every animal in our care with treatments that often go above and beyond.
Our adoption fees reflect the extensive care and resources that go into each animal we save. The adoption fee is a donation to the mission and goes far beyond getting a fully vetted pet.
The rescues hard costs alone for a healthy dog to go through our program typically range between $412 to $859, which includes boarding, food, medications, vaccines, and spay/neuter. For heartworm-positive dogs, hard costs are upwards of $1,120. Additionally, dogs requiring extended boarding, extra training, or extra medical caresuch as dental work, vision care, or orthopedic carecan lead to expenses running into the thousands.
