This is the darling Annaleigh. She's a 3-year-old pitbull from Alabama who has been in foster care for a full year.Annaleigh had a litter of puppies while at the shelter, and then she developed a bad case of mastitis. She became more shy and timid after that, but she is slowly making her way back out of her shell. Annaleigh LOVES to snuggle, she loves other dogs and is fine with cats. Small children scare her though, so she would be better with older kids or none.This girl is so dang sweet -- she just needs to find a home that's right for her. Could that be yours? If so, here is her adoption info! Go get her! About this projectFor the next month, I’ll feature photos on my blog, my instagram and my facebook feeds that focus on dogs who need homes. These are dogs currently in foster homes, waiting for their forever family. They are amazing pups who will melt your hearts — some are hard to adopt because they are pit bull mixes (the sweetest dogs ever who cannot help their strength) or they have lived on the streets for a long time and are covered in scars or they might be blind or deaf (or both). Some are simply hard to get adopted because they are black, which is the dumbest reason ever. But each dog that has come into my studio in the last few weeks for photos has had a warm heart and wanted nothing more than love. Wouldn’t it be great if one of you could provide that? I hope so. To see all the dogs featured so far, look here.
