My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meatball is a seven-year-old, 68-pound American Pit Bull Terrier mix. His journey began at just a few days old when Home Fur Good rescued him from the county shelter. He needed a mother, and Gia, a Norfolk Terrier who had recently given birth, welcomed him into her litter. Though he towered over his adoptive siblings, Meatball fit right in. Once he was old enough, he found a home, but due to changes in his adopter’s circumstances, he has returned to HFG as an adult.

Meatball is a sweet, playful, and affectionate dog with plenty of energy. He thrives on interaction and is highly treat-motivated, making training a breeze. He already knows ‘sit’ and ‘shake’ and does well on a leash. It’s important to walk him with a harness, however. He is sensitive to having his windpipe constricted when walking with only a collar. Meatball enjoys the company of older children, though his enthusiasm may be overwhelming for little ones. He has also spent time with other dogs.
Meatball’s adoption fee of $150 includes his neuter, vaccinations, microchip, and a complimentary wellness visit at Phoenix Mountain Animal Hospital.

If you’re looking for a loving, loyal companion, come meet Meatball! Adoption hours are Thursday through Saturday from 11:00 am to 4:00 pm. Call 602-971-1334 to schedule an appointment.
