American Pit Bull Terrier (short coat) Dog

Sweet Pea the Dog needs a home

PLEASE NOTE! Unless stated otherwise, our dogs and puppies are located in Arkansas, and transported to the north/northeast once adopted. We do occasionally have dogs/puppies placed in foster homes in the north/northeast. In the cases where the pet is somewhere other than Arkansas, it will be noted beside the name of the pet.


**This puppy is located in Arkansas and will be transported out of state once adopted. He/She is listed in all of the states that we offer transport to, or close to. Please do not apply if you are not interested in adopting a puppy out of state. Thank you!


Hi My name is Sweet Pea! I think I'm about 1.5 years old but I'm not super sure. Doggy days are so much different than people days.


My story starts sad but I don't let it bother me much anymore. I was found at a food pantry so skinny you could count all my ribs. My hair was falling out from malnutrition and somehow I was still taking care of my 10 babies! Some really nice people came and got me and my family from the abandonded house we were living in. Our daddy had gone to jail for being a bad dude and didn't tell anybody to feed us or anything.


But now I get all the groceries I want! I am house trained and crate trained. And I know lots of tricks! I can sit, shake with both hands, lay down, kennel up and I always come when called!


I'm basically perfect! The only thing I'm missing is you!


Our typical adoption fee for puppies younger than 6 months old is $300-$350, and for older puppies and adults, the usual fee is $250. This includes spay/neuter if old enough, (If not old enough for spay/neuter, the puppy will be adopted on a spay/neuter contract, which will require the adopter to have him/her spayed/neutered no later than 6 months of age), up to date age appropriate vaccinations, dewormings, flea/tick treatment, and heartworm test (if over 6 months old) as well as heartworm treatment if they test positive. There is a transport fee of $140 per dog. We use Uber Dog Animal Rescue Transport, and you can see more about them at www.uberdogart.com.
