• “While I may not always live up to my name, I have tons of energy that I like to get out by going on hikes or playing fetch with my human. There are also so many new and exciting things to sniff in the world, one day I’ll get to sniff them all!“

  — Carl L.

• “I’m just an old man who likes to be in my own world! I like to play but not as often as my two sisters. I’m SO happy chasing and barking at dragonflies and sometimes even birds shadows! I love the water but only when I can do it on my own. I’m friendly and loving despite my loud bark and typical German shepherd fierce look!“

  — Alicia E.

• “Meet Havoc, a sweet, soulful 14-year-old Pitbull. Don't let his name fool you—this gentle boy is all about love and cuddles. With a heart of gold and a lifetime of wisdom in his eyes, Havoc enjoys slow strolls, sunbathing, and napping in his favorite cozy spots. He's a true testament to the loving nature of his breed and a cherished member of his family.“

  — Taryn M.

• “Havoc loves hiking and running, he likes the dogs and people he knows, but other than that is not friendly with strangers. He loves all cats though, even the ones that don’t like him lol. He could fetch all day long.“

  — Kerrie C.

  — John L.

I love to pull my human dad on his scooter all around town and i love when we go hiking. Im always Alpha attitude gets me into scuffles with other dogs and with people. I also have a serious OBSESSION WITH ROCKS. I will dive underwater for long periods of time until i find the biggest rock i can carry to a bush and hide it. I also hide them in my humans car. I dont ever eat them.“

  — Mary M.

• “Buckle up and get ready for a big ole chunk of text! 🤭🐾 Havoc is extremely intelligent, although he doesn’t always apply himself. Haha! A total goofball, always doing silly things to keep everyone laughing. Havoc is truly the sweetest boy, loves getting cuddles, booty scratches and belly rubs. Some people think he’s intimidating but he’s just a big ole teddy bear! People are always shocked at how well connected we are, it’s like we have a psychic link or something. He may be a stubborn little brat from time to time but I know he has my back 100%! History has proven not only his love & loyalty but also his ability to go above and beyond to not only protect but also help me in any way he can. For example; the time I stopped doing CPR on a friend to grab my phone/dial 911 & Havoc actually began doing what I can only explain as chest compressions…I couldn’t believe my eyes! He’s also woke me up in the middle of the night, followed him to my dad’s room only to discover my dad’s bipap mask had come off. He is on oxygen 24/7 (he has COPD) so not only was his sleep machine not working but he also didnt have his oxygen hooked up! It’s scary to think about what could’ve happened if Havoc hadn’t brought that to my attention. I have a ton of stories that showcase just how amazing Havoc is. He truly is everything to me, more than just a dog, he came into my life at a very low point and has helped me climb out of it. I just happened to be at my friend’s house the night his dog gave birth to a litter of puppies. I worked my magic and managed to stay there for the majority of the two months until the puppies were ready to leave their mother. During that time, Havoc picked me to be his mom. I think that’s a part of why we have such a strong bond and understanding of each other. I had him potty trained by a month old! My friend was shocked when he spotted little baby Havoc pawing at the sliding glass door, I opened it, he ran out, went pee on the porch then ran back inside! He's always been very curious and observant of the word around him. As a puppy he was so shy, like a little ball of anxiety…he would waddle on over to me and gently paw at my leg and cry so I’d pick him up. Another girl had claimed Havoc but my friend ended up breaking the news to her that she couldn’t have him since it was obvious he was meant to come with me! Havoc always had to be closest to me, in photos his brother and sister are blurry from playing and he was always crisp just looking up at me like he was so in love. 🤭 🥰 So, I guess I’ll stop my writing here. I could write about my little man forever! I don’t think I could ask for a better pup! He has so many silly little quirks, he’s definitely a character! I’ve never met a dog with such a huge personality…sometimes I swear he seems more like a toddler stuck in a dog body. Haha! I love him more every single day. Havoc is simply the best! ♥️🐾“

• “Havoc is a working line German Shepherd. He's very handler focused and loves anything involving the water. He is off leash trained.“

  — Amber J.

• “He is a little over a year old but a 60# lovable baby. He loves cuddles and making new friends. He’s been with our family since he was about 6 months old and we take him almost everywhere we go. He’s loves people and so far every dog he’s met - all on lead. We have not had him off lead outside of our own yard but he has great recall.“

  — Raleen P.

• “Havoc is a 4 year old female dutch Shepherd. She is a master dock diver and has multiple titles. She also knows all 5 phases of apprehension, has tactical military experience including jumping off boats and repelling from helicopters.“

  — Alexandra M.

• “Do you know who’s the bestest boi? According to my pawrents, I am! Hi! I’m Havoc and I’m a brindle ball of energy and love. I’ve been through 6 training classes of all different types of things! My agility classes were fun but my favorite was probably the tricks class. I can do so many tricks!! Mom says I’m a smart boi, 10/10 would recommend. I do however have some issues with other dogs when it comes to resource guarding. I just have a hard time sharing 🥺. People are an exception, I’ll share anything with hoomans! (Including kisses) I have been diagnosed with canine idiopathic epilepsy and that’s not always fun. But it doesn’t keep me from going on adventures and loving life! My moms like a dog nurse so she takes good care of me when I have seizures. I can’t wait to explore sniff spots! Thank you for allowing me to visit!“

  — Hunter P.

• “Havoc is high energy puppy. She loves to run, play, chase, and explore. She loves food. She is shy until she gets to know you then she will give you so many kisses. She is such a happy puppy.“
