From the side of the road in Alabama to center stage—meet our newest cast of survivors.

🎬 Introducing the Grease Litter 🎬

Straight out of a real-life rough opening scene, these six pups were found dumped on the side of the road in Alabama—left without a script, but not without a second chance. Thanks to our rescue partner, they’ve made it to safety and are ready to start rewriting their story… this time with a forever family.

This crew is made up of 4 boys and 2 girls, each one already showing off their own personality—whether they’re channeling main character energy or stealing the scene with quiet charm. They may have started out on the wrong road, but they’re headed somewhere much better now.

We originally thought they might be a Rottweiler or Collie mix—but Zuko’s DNA results told a different (and pretty awesome) story. They’re actually a unique blend of 29% American Pit Bull Terrier, 29% Siberian Husky, 22% Australian Cattle Dog, 13% Supermutt (American Bulldog & Bulldog), and 4% German Shepherd. So while we were a little off on the Rottweiler guess, we weren’t too far from the mark with the Collie/Cattle Dog instincts! What that mix really means: intelligence, loyalty, energy, and a whole lot of personality.

These pups are still young, learning, and soaking up the good life—but they’re already proving that their past doesn’t define them.

🖤 Dogs first. Always.

Medical Note for Adopters:
Zuko has a DNA test currently pending—we’re excited to share results once available. He was also evaluated by a licensed veterinarian and diagnosed with a grade 1–2 heart murmur. At this level, murmurs are typically low-grade and often considered “innocent” or preclinical, meaning no immediate treatment is required. Routine monitoring with a veterinarian is recommended.
