Boston (Foster Care) Pit Bull Terrier Newport, NC

Meet this sweet senior fella named Boston! He came into the shelter August 7, 2023 when his owner was out in the hospital and unfortunately passed away. There was no one to care for him so he came to the shelter. He is now awaiting his chance at a happily ever after. He is 11 years young, current on shots, neutered, and a really sweet boy. He came in missing some fur more than likely result of fleas but it should start filling in. He enjoys wading in the baby pools and posing for the camera. A awesome boy who deserves a wonderful loving FOREVER home to enjoy his “golden years” being a loved & pampered pooch. We were told he is house broken, good with children and most other dogs too. Loves going for car rides and is a great rider. Just an all around good fella! Quite the snuggle partner while sleeping or watching TV. Maybe Boston is your guy…come meet him and adopt him into your heart and home!
If you have another dog and are interested in meeting another potential new furry member please bring him or her to the shelter and meet on neutral ground before adopting. No need to shuffle the animals around any more than necessary. Please know that 1 mosquito bite can create heart worms and they can be fatal if not treated. It is VERY important to keep your pets healthy and protected by keeping them on a once a month heart worm and flea/tick prevention. These animals are counting on you as their owner to provide them with lots a love and the proper health care so PLEASE make sure you are aware and prepared before adopting. Owning a pet is an extra expense and responsibility but is so worth every minute and penny you invest in them. They will add lots of joy and unconditional love if given a fair chance.
The shelter is open Mon.-Fri. 10-1, 2-5, Sat. 10-4. Adopt a homeless pet and save a life. If you can not adopt right now come out and volunteer and make a difference in the lives of these animals while they await their FOREVER home.
In order to adopt any of our "bully breeds" there is special paper work that will need to be collected and approved prior to the adoption. We love all of our dogs and want to make sure to place our "bully babies" in homes best suited for them.
