Here's what the humans have to say about me:
A21949 Picasso is a brindle colored, approximately 2-year-old, 71-pound, neutered male, Pitbull.
He entered the shelter as a stray on 09-15-2024 and was altered by our medical staff.
Picasso is a friendly, and eager boy here at the shelter. Our staff describes him as a friendly, happy boy. He has had some training and will "sit and "shake upon command. He was easy to leash but pulled in excitement to be out exploring. He can be a little bull headed and continue to pull or not want to go in the direction you are wanting. He will need a little more training. He has a friendly interest in other dogs, as he wags his tail and pulls you to each kennel as you go by for a walk. Picasso will be a fun-loving family member in his new forever home.
