Nitro and Bella Joy are a loving and devoted couple of red short haired cuties!  They used to live under a shed where Miss Bella Joy had at least two litters of puppies in her past life.  She’s a sweet kissy friendly lady with a bit of submissiveness when she feels intimidated.  Nitro is a happy go lucky Texan who loves his hunting… (no cats please!). Nitro is the BEST boy ever – don’t let his age fool you, he’s full of vigor and happy excitement to greet you when you come home, and ensure that no critters ever trespass into his territory!  When his little lady, Bella Joy, had her puppies, Nitro was extremely attentive and such a good daddy!  Most daddy dogs are banished from the puppies, but Nitro cared for them right alongside his lady love.  He played with the pups when they were old enough to climb on his head and play chase the tail!  If you would entertain the thought of giving this beautiful couple a happy home, they will repay you with tons of kisses, tail wags, happy, joyful barks and loyal friendship.  Both were heartworm positive when they came to us, so it took a while to get them both healthy, now they have been treated, spayed/neutered, current on shots, fecal and hw tested/treated, microchipped, ready to meet their new family!!!
