My story

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

HOW TO ADOPT: This dog is available for adoption by appointment. To schedule a time to meet this dog, please email fosterinquiry@arl-iowa.org.



---



- A chill, quiet lady who loves to be around her people, whether that's going on walks or just hanging out around the house



- Very cuddly



- Loves playing with plushies



- Seems to be housetrained and crate trained, just remember that any dog may take time to adjust to a new schedule and routine



- May take some time to warm up to new dogs and may prefer some dogs over others; would be most comfortable with a slow introduction to new dogs (dog intro recommended)



- Young, noisy or busy children can be too much for her (mature home recommended)



- Fun fact: A DNA test showed this girl is 35% American pit bull terrier, 34% American bulldog, 15% mastiff, 11% American Staffordshire terrier and 5% Coton de Tulear



- The ARL's shelter software requires that we choose a primary breed for our dogs. Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable, so for most dogs we are only guessing at primary breed. We get to know each dog as an individual and do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not breed label.


Primary Color: Black
Secondary Color: Brown
Weight: 66
Age: 4yrs 4mths 2wks
