Vernon's Story

Hi there, I'm Vernon! I am a super snuggly sweetheart. I have the the softest, rabbit-like fur you’ll ever touch. I'm a bulldog mix with the cutest underbite, really, I'm a total cuddlebug and love nothing more than curling up close for a nap—or playing joyfully with other dogs.<br/><br/>Before rescue, I was surviving as a stray on the streets for months, too scared to trust despite many kindhearted attempts. When I finally decided it was okay to trust and taken in, I had some serious wounds from life outside — I got some TLC, antibiotics, and love. But that is all behind me now and my foster says I've healed beautifully, both inside and out.<br/><br/>I have been told that I can have a very serious look but I am gentle, affectionate, and ready to bond deeply with a forever family. While I haven't met cats yet, I am at my best and confident when I am with other dogs and would thrive in a home with canine companions or loving humans who adore snuggles.<br/><br/>Now that my rough days are behind me, I'm ready for a soft bed, full belly, and lots of love—maybe with you?<br/><br/>ADOPTION FEE: $300 (All MVPC dogs are heartworm-tested and on prevention, completely vetted, spayed/neutered, microchipped, crate-trained and house-trained)<br/><br/>ADOPTER: Dog experience<br/>BIRTHDAY: 11/5/2023<br/>FENCE: Required (an electric fence is not an acceptable form of containment)<br/>DOG FRIENDLY: Yes<br/>DOGS IN HOME: Required<br/>CATS: Unknown<br/>CHILDREN: Yes, 8 and over<br/><br/>I AM READY TO GO HOME - If you are approved to be my new family, a hold fee of $100 is required and will be applied to the full adoption fee of $300 when MVPC comes to visit your house with me!<br/><br/>***WE DO NOT HOLD DOGS. IF YOU ARE GOING ON VACATION OR ARE NOT YET READY TO PROCEED PLEASE APPLY WHEN YOU ARE.***<br/><br/>INQUIRIES: ALL inquiries begin with a submitted adoption application, which is found on our website, www.miamivalleypitcrew.com. We do not adopt to individuals under the age of 25.<br/><br/>DO NOT: USE THE PETFINDER CONTACT/ADOPT BUTTONS--we are unable to monitor those and you will not receive a response.<br/><br/>PLEASE NOTE: We are volunteer based and a home visit is required; we have a two-hour adoption radius from Kettering, OH for our adult dogs and 75 miles for our puppies.

Miami Valley Pit Crew's Adoption Policy
We require an application submitted through our website to begin the process. After the application is reviewed and vet checks complete, if approved, a phone interview by our adoption coordinator will determine best fit and answer any questions! A non-refundable $100 hold fee is required to secure your chosen dog and is applied to the full adoption fee (ranges from $200-$400) at the time of the home visit. If the home visit goes well, the adoption is completed at that time and our MVP is your new best friend! 1) We do not adopt to individuals under 25 2) We will check your landlord if you rent for breed and weight restrictions 3) A fence is required for most of our dogs, but exceptions for leash walking may be considered for some. We do NOT approve the use of electric fences for our dogs. 4) Please ensure you have read all of the dog's specific requirements before applying. We may suggest a better fit for your family dynamics, as we know these dogs better than anyone and want the dog AND our amazing families to succeed.
