My personality

My story

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

Meet handsome Kimbo, our green-eyed pitbull puppy.

Kimbo is the perfect blend of his beautiful parents with a striking eye color and gorgeous coat. He is friendly, snuggly, and like most puppies loves to be on your lap. He is so young, that his personality is still developing, but at the moment is very quiet and attentive to his human care team. He weighed 8 lbs at his first vet visit on 8/31.

We will be pre-adopting Kimbo, so we can best match his future volunteer transporter to the state that our chosen adopter lives. His adoption fee covers this transportation cost, vetting up to that point, and microchip, but it will be a requirement to get his neutered at the owner's expense when he is old enough. Apply early, and we'll have him ready for you!

The Full Story:
The Puerto Rico Dog Fund (PRDF) is driven to end over-population of animals on the island, and during one of our free sterilization clinics, Kimbo and his sister Kira's parents were spayed and neutered - YAY! - and Kira and Kimbo were given to us to find them wonderful homes. We expect them to be big, sturdy dogs based upon their parents (see last pic in profile).

We believe them to be born around July 17th 2024 (so approx. 7 weeks old as of September 3). They are receiving their vetting protocol of deworming, medical bath, vaccinations, and preventative medications (HeartGard and NextGard) and eating like the ravenous, growing puppies they are! :) Based on their estimated completion date of this health protocol, we will have them ready to travel to their approved adoptive homes after September 14th. They are doing well with puppy pee pad training and they sleep in an open crate together at night.
