My story

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

Vera is an intelligent beautiful girl who aims to please. She is very good with the basic commands, and enjoys doing them. She is learning to walk nicely. She is quiet, house trained, crate trained (goes into her crate on command), and sleeps through the night. Her fur is a gorgeous glossy black, which the photos do not do justice. She would thrive in a calm household. She is a Chicago Animal Care and Control alum, where she successfully participated in playgroup. At my house, after very gradual and cautious introductions over a two week period, she got along with other dogs including our chihuahua and another pitbull who I began fostering at the same time as I began fostering her. Often we will see her lying against the other pit bull. Although we have cats in our home, she did chase them, so I would not suggest a home with cats. She would thrive in a calm home.
