My name is Sugar D5485!

Hey everyone!  My name is Sugar (DOB: 8/19/2017), an adorable 50lbs Pit mix, but my foster mom calls me Ember.  You see, it isn’t that Sugar wasn’t a good fit for me, in fact, I truly am as sweet as sugar, but I came to my foster mom in really rough shape and since I didn’t respond to Sugar, foster mom thought it would be perfect to give me a new name for a new beginning; and boy have we had a journey. During this time with my foster mom, I have gone through 3 separate knee surgeries due to an ACL tear and one separate surgery for a lump on my toe that needed to go! Ha ha, that rhymes! Now that I am all healed, I am ready to finally find my new forever home!

Now that all the boring health stuff is out of the way, let me tell you all about myself! I love doing so many fun and exciting things.  I love playing fetch outside, and it doesn’t matter what I’m fetching. I am all in! I take really good care of my toys too that they'll likely last forever.  I’m super food motivated too so you could likely teach my any commands you want.  There really isn't anything I wouldn't do for a good smelly treat, I would absolutely excel in an obedience class.  I love going on walks too, especially when we run into new friends! I just love pretty much everyone.  I even like cats! I have learned that some kitties are not interested in playing but others enjoy playing with me as much as other dogs. My absolute favorite thing in the entire world is when I get to spend time with my foster mama.  I love nothing more than getting pets, belly rubs, and plopping onto foster mom's lap for extra close cuddles.  She even lets me sleep with her at night and it makes me sooooo unbelievably happy that I curl up right against her back.  She really says I am truly the best cuddler in the world.  And if I’m not cuddling on the cough, I am probably sitting on the cough like a human. It makes me feel special.

Now while foster mom says I am pretty much perfect, I do have one area that I still struggle with a bit. Now mind you, I have made leaps and bounds in this category but sometimes I still have potty accidents. These are few and far between if you follow some easy instructions: let me out regularly throughout the day, make sure you let me out as soon as we wake up in the morning and before we go to bed, and keep me crated if you leave the home in a special crate that foster mom can discuss with you in further detail. These simple things really prevent 99% of accidents. Also, did I mention, I easily go into my crate every morning before mom goes to work? So, what do you think, are you ready to add the sweetest, most amazing pittie girl to your life?  If so, I'm your gal.
