My story

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

Meet Louise!

A gentle twelve-year-old American Pitbull Terrier from Venetia, PA, whose essence is a serene, loving presence wrapped in a sleek black coat with a touch of gray on her muzzle that gives her a perpetually youthful look. Louise has spent nearly a decade as a beloved companion, and her calm, docile nature has been a constant source of joy for her current family. Despite a rough start in life, Louise's spirit remains unbroken, and she's ready to bring her calm, loving demeanor to a new family who will cherish her golden years!

Louise's favorite activities include leisurely walks and cozying up on the couch, making her the perfect companion for someone who appreciates tranquility and gentle companionship. She might not know many commands, but she has an impeccable sense for walk time and is always ready to accompany you on a peaceful stroll. With her low energy and friendly nature, Louise is wonderfully suited for families with young children, other dogs, and even cats. She’s a social butterfly who loves meeting new people and gets along famously with other pets!

Louise is in excellent health for her age, with up-to-date vaccinations and a spayed status. She is house-trained and adapts well when left alone for short periods. Louise does take medication to manage protein levels in her urine, a precautionary measure that helps maintain her overall health. This sweet girl has no anxiety triggers, making her an easygoing addition to any household!

Louise’s gentle nature and love for walks will thrive in a caring environment, ideally with a fenced backyard where she can enjoy some safe outdoor time.

Louise’s story is one of resilience and unwavering love. She survived a harsh past as a bait dog and has spent the last 10 years in a loving home with her devoted guardian. Despite her challenges, including worn-down and missing teeth, Louise has thrived with the love and care her guardian has provided. Now in her golden years, Louise needs a peaceful retirement home where she can continue to feel cherished. Louise’s guardian is willing to assist with transportation and is open to placing her anywhere on the East Coast. Let's ensure Louise's story of survival and love continues in a new, caring home!
