My story

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

I`m one beautiful girl, don`t you think? I`m a 5-year-old pit bull terrier/hound mix who is looking for love in all the right places. The kennel staff say I`m a very sweet and affectionate lady who would benefit from structure and obedience classes to put me on a path to continued success in life. I was left up to my own devices in my prior home, so I would love to go to a new household with adopters willing to provide me with the time and care I crave from life. What can I say, I just want to be petted and loved. So much so, I`ll flop on my back so I can be flooded with belly rubs. I enjoy being with my people and although I can be wary of men to start, I`m fine with people once I get to know you. I`ve proved to be dog social and have had several successful play sessions with the male dogs at the shelter. The kennel staff wouldn’t rule out female dogs in a future home for me, pending a dog introduction with any new canine friend. I would however, prefer a home with teens and up and no cats please. If you think you would enjoy my playful exuberance and active personality, then maybe I`m the perfect girl for you!

If I sound like a good fit for you and your family, please call the kennel staff at (413) 447-7878 ext.126 to find more about how to adopt me!
