Notes from Wag On Inn Rescue

Bubba and Scar are with our partner rescue in Mississippi and can catch a ride to NJ with an approved adopter or foster. These brothers MUST be fostered and/or adopted together.

Two. Together.

Scar and Bubba need someone very special. Someone willing to see two boys who deserve a chance—and a life together.

Found together, these boys share an incredibly deep bond. We don’t know whether they’re biological brothers, but we know they’re family. Wherever Bubba goes, Scar is right beside him.

Bubba, the gray-blue boy, is the more outgoing half of this duo. He loves every dog he’s met, including puppies, and is great with kids. He walks beautifully on a leash and is mostly a calm, chill guy with a curious streak and a love of exploring.

Scar, the gray-and-white boy, is quieter and takes his confidence from Bubba. He follows his buddy’s lead and sticks close to his side. He’s great with other dogs, has done well with older kids, and both boys were wonderful with the people they met at an adoption event.

Their wish list comes with a few nonnegotiables:

• A foster or adoptive home together—Scar especially depends on Bubba.

• A secure, 6-foot fence and supervised yard time. Bubba can climb fences, so he cannot be left outside alone, even in a fenced yard.

• Someone ready to help them through heartworm treatment. Both boys are heartworm-positive.

We know it’s a big ask. Two bonded pit bulls, specific fencing needs, and heartworm treatment—that’s a lot standing between them and a home. But none of it makes them any less deserving.

Somewhere out there, we hope there’s a person who has room for two—and understands why, for these boys, one without the other simply won’t do.

Bubba and Scar will be up to date vaccines and are being treated for heartworm. They are both neutered and microchipped. Their adoption fee is $900.

Adopting a dog is a commitment that will require annual veterinary care at a minimum, training, exercise, enrichment, etc. Pet care is not cheap or easy and adopters should consider the costs, time and training prior to adoption. After all these dogs have been through, they deserve a loving, committed home.
