My story

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

Meet Hennessy! She is a 3 yr old spayed female brindle pitbull mix that weighs 32 lbs. She came into the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 12/3 as an owner surrender. Reason for surrender was unwanted. Hennessy is a lovely girl that was adopted previously from our shelter. During this time, she did not receive the best care. She is malnourished, skin is dry, some hair loss around her neck and hard calluses on her back hips showing she was living outside on concrete. Despite this she still has a happy go lucky loving personality. She enjoys going on walks, being petted and loved on. When sitting in a chair she will jump in my lap for pets. She remembers the sit/lay command and does take treats somewhat gently. She will be receiving additional feedings that I know will help her feel better. As we walked past the other dogs barking at her, she didn`t pay any attention, but we do ask if you have another dog in the home, please be sure to ask the shelter for a dog test. She would love to have a secured backyard to play in, but most importantly live indoors where she can be close and cuddly with her human companions. Please give this lovely girl the chance at her final loving home she so deserves.
