My story

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

Location: Henrico, VA

Meet Scarlett, a gentle senior pit bull who needs your help. Scarlett's life took a drastic turn recently, losing not just her fur sibling but also her beloved elderly owner due to health reasons. Adopted years ago from a shelter where she was once abandoned, Scarlett is now in search of a new loving home.

This sweet girl has a heart full of love to give. Scarlett craves affection and finds her joy in cuddles and companionship. She's a dedicated lap dog, cherishing every moment of warmth and tenderness. Sleeping in bed with her former mom brought her comfort, and she longs for that cozy connection once more.

Scarlett, like many of us, is sensitive to loud noises. She thrives in a calm, serene environment and would flourish best in a home with older, considerate children who understand her needs. Her gentle nature shines brightest when surrounded by love and understanding.

Her current situation has turned her world upside down, but Scarlett's spirit remains resilient. If you have room in your heart and home for this lovebug, consider giving her a new start for the New Year. Your affection and care can provide Scarlett with the stability and love she so dearly craves.

Please reach out to Michelle today if you believe you can be the perfect match for Scarlett. Your decision to welcome Scarlett into your life could be the start of a beautiful bond, offering her the comfort and security she deserves.
