My story

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

Wilma is a beautiful merle pitbull with stunning blue and green eyes. Wilma and her puppy, Pebbles, were found as strays. Since joining our rescue, she has been learning how to be a good house dog and loving all of the affection that comes with it!

Wilma is curious and playful with other dogs. While she loves to wrestle, she is successfully able to read their cues to slow down or back off. She is capable of calm coexistence with other dogs.

While Wilma has not met any children, she has been neutral to the ones playing at the playground that we walk by. While she is gentle, she can be exuberant and is still a puppy herself at one year of age, so she is still learning proper manners and may need continued training to live with smaller children.

Wilma has a medium energy level and would thrive with an active family who loves to take her for walks, runs, or hikes, and loves to play with her. She enjoys running and playing fetch, and is learning to enjoy tug.

Wilma is a dream to walk around the neighborhood. She is neutral to other people and dogs and walks nicely on her leash. While she would much prefer to chase the squirrels, she restrains herself. She is so much fun to play fetch with! She is incredibly affectionate and would like to cuddle as close to you as possible, laying on top of you while helping with your skincare routine via kisses. She has done well with the few dogs she has been tested with.

Three words to describe Wilma? Exuberant, affectionate, and playful!
