Linus was taken to a foster home for pitbulls (pictured here) where he runs and plays to
his heart's content. He not only loves other dogs with a passion, but he's very attached
to this current foster mom, following her around from room to room. Linus is very handsome
and muscular-- a really impressive-looking specimen at about 80 pounds: he has a heart of
gold! He is fully housebroken and sleeps nicely in his crate at night, chewing on his rawhide
until his falls into a deep slumber. He's learning basic commands like sit,
come, and stay-- all of which he will have mastered by the time his leaves
his foster home. He also loves car rides! He also has been neutered, microchipped and has his shots.
Linus is the light, fawn-colored dog with the blue collar in the photos.
As you can see, he plays nicely with other dogs and would make a great
dog-park dog or companion to another dog-- big or small, male or female.
In fact, he should go to a home with either a person who spends a lot of
time at home OR a home with another dog, because he's a big wussy and
doesn't like being left alone. This is a great, big, fun dog who will
bond to you in an instant. Contact me if you know anyone who wants
a sweet, fun, lug of a dog to join your family!! And please forward this
email far and wide! Linus would be a great companion in almost any circumstance
as long as he has company with him-- dog or person -- most of the time. Adoption
fee, adoption contract, and home visit are required for this special guy, because
we want the best home possible for him! After all he's been through, he deserves it.
What a Looker!
Linus' background story: Linus is a young male pitbull-type who was roaming the
streets of east Oakland with his best pal, a male chihuahua, after his
owners were incarcerated in a drug bust. After months of fighting for survival in the hood,
he was picked up by a sympathetic passerby (because he would
have no chance at the Oakland shelter) and taken to a temporary foster
home for pitbulls (pictured here), where he runs and plays to his heart's content.
