My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
A22742 Oz is a brown and white colored, approximately 1 and a half-year-old, 61-pound, neutered male, Pitbull.
He entered the shelter as a stray on 10-09-2024 and was altered by our medical staff.
Oz is a friendly, happy boy here at the shelter. Our staff says he was shy at first, but once comfortable he is a big happy lover. They say he is very sweet and will go explore the yard and check things out, but as soon as you sit down, he comes over and leans on you for affection. Loves people and affection. He has a friendly interest in other dogs here. He has had some training and will "sit upon command. He was easy to leash but pulls in excitement and will need some training to be his best. Oz will be a fun-loving family member in his new forever home.
