My story

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

Meet Keanu!
Keanu is a 2-year-old Pit Bull with a puppylike spirit. He was found running with another dog in St. Peters on 7/15/24. Although he gets nervous in the kennel, he`s a happy-go-lucky boy outside!

Keanu loves to have fun and might sneak some bread from the counter or grab a toy for a little party. He`s not much of a barker but will softly whine when he wants attention. He walks well on a lead unless his prey drive kicks in, so he might not be the best fit for a home with cats.

Initially shy with new people, Keanu warms up quickly and becomes a lifelong friend. He`s a sweet dog who loves water and would be a great companion for camping and boating adventures. Plus, he`s house trained!

Here are some highlights about Keanu:
- Leash Walking: Improves after initial excitement.
- Energetic: Enjoys parkouring off people when excited, so no small kids.
- Affectionate: Loves belly rubs.
- Playful: Chases toys but loses interest when they stop moving.
- Learning: Likes treats but doesn’t know commands yet.
- Home Needs: Ideal for an active home that loves adventures.
- Cats: Too interested in cats and may chase them.

If you`re looking for an energetic and affectionate companion, Keanu could be the perfect match for you!
