A shelter staff member writes: Doug and Callie are two social Pitties who are playgroup rock stars!  They are respectful, tolerant, and engaging with even rude dogs!  Doug’s owner just dropped his leash in in our lobby and walked out.  He did very well on his SAFER, and will make a great addition to just about any home.  Callie was surrendered because her owner did not have enough time to care for her.  She has adorable eras, and has previously lived with a cat and a rabbit!  Please help Doug and Callie find their loving forever families, and pull them online TONIGHT!
