We are looking to add an adoption coordinator to our team! If you love getting to know dogs and talking to people to make a connection, please consider applying! Please understand this is a volunteer position, there is no pay involved. We are 100% volunteer run!

We are looking for someone who will work closely with our director and foster coordinator to make decisions for the long term wellbeing and success of all dogs in their new homes. We will show you the ropes!

The typical work load is from 5-10 hours a week, and can primarily be done remotely.

We would love for the adoption coordinator to be present at meet and greets with new families, if possible. This can be discussed as the new team member gets comfortable in their position on the adoption team.

Must be comfortable texting, and speaking on the phone with potential adopters.

Please let us know you are interested by applying as a volunteer at thepitbullpen.org & mention becoming adoption coordinator on the application. If you are already a volunteer with us, please email us regarding this at thepitbullpen@gmail.com

Thank you! Please share!

Nala is a 6 month old Merle pittie looking for a soft couch to crash on for a few weeks, or better yet an adoptive home!

She is about 45 pounds, energetic and loves to play with other dogs. She is crate trained and potty trained on the appropriate schedule for her age. She lives with a cat that dislikes her and tries to engage the kitty in play. She respects being swatted. She is amazing with children, but She doesn’t realize her size, so keep size in mind if you have kiddos. 🥰

She will be fixed, brought up to date on vaccinations, microchipped & dewormed!

*Nala is being surrendered due to no fault of her own. Life is changing for her humans and it’s causing her mom to work a lot longer hours. This isn’t fair for Nala, please keep negative comments to yourself.

Betty is a one year old lab/pittie mix looking for her forever home! She was adopted through us as a puppy several months ago, and is being returned for personal reasons unrelated to Betty. She is a great pup, good with dogs and people (including kids)! Betty would make a great family dog for anyone who will continue to train and socialize her appropriately. She is submissive to other dogs, and would love a home with another dog or two to play with.

Betty is crate trained, potty trained, spayed, up to date on vaccinations, microchipped & dewormed!

Autumn is ready to find her forever humans! She is a 5-6 month old shepherd mix puppy weighing in at about 50 pounds already 😮

She is very dog friendly, cat friendly and people friendly. Autumn has been spayed, microchipped, dewormed and she is up to date on her vaccinations.

Autumn is a large puppy, and would do best in a home that will continue to train and socialize her to be come the best family member possible! She would love a family that includes her on adventures & outings and also has some down time for her to lounge and relax. We would prefer for her to go to a home with a fully fenced in yard. She would be great with age appropriate children who understand not to climb on her and treat her like a toy or jungle gym. She is an overall happy girl looking for a soft place to land!

If you are looking for a giant puppy with lots of love to give, and a personality to boot, Autumn is your girl. 😍

She is fostered in Tri-Cities, WA

Introducing this sweet little muffin whom we call Link! He is not adoption ready yet, as he will be neutered and is still receiving his puppy vaccines. He will be up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, fixed, microchipped and dewormed when he goes home.

Link is a sweet little boy with lots of personality. He is bouncy and He loves other dogs. Interested and calm around cats, he has not chased. Link is amazing with kids of all ages but typical puppy. Can be mouthy when amped up. Kennel trained, but takes a minute to decompress. Still perfecting potty training.

This little sausage will be up for adoption in a few weeks, and we will post an update when adoption applications can be accepted. He is fostered in Tri-Cities, WA

We are being asked to help with taking in Oakley, who is a 8 month- 1 year old unaltered male weighing about 40 lbs. he will be fixed, vaccinated, chipped & dewormed once we have a foster for him.

He has been around dogs all his life without issues! We are not sure about cats and kids, but he absolutely LOVES people, so would likely be fine with age appropriate kids.

He is currently sitting in boarding because he was surrendered to an animal control agency that does not have a holding facility. He needs to get out of boarding as soon as possible so he can start his new life, and not experience any form of kennel stress. He’s only been there a day or two now, please help us end his stay in boarding and send him to loving foster home!

Rizzo is on the hunt for his PERFECT forever family! This sweet boy is about 4 months old, neutered, microchipped, dewormed & up to date on vaccinations.

We believe rizzo is a shepherd mix puppy, he is currently about 35-40 lbs in weight and still growing! He is doing fabulous with other dogs, and is also fostered with cats and older kids. He is looking for a home that will continue his exercise, socialization with others & training. He is doing very well with potty training and crate training. He would do best in an active family, where he will get to go on lots of adventures and see the world with his loved ones.
