Poe is a 4-year-old, neutered Pittie mix who is a 60 lb bundle of joy, equal parts playful, loyal, and affectionate. He's an outgoing, fun-loving guy with the perfect mix of goofiness and smarts, the kind of dog who'll make you laugh one minute and melt your heart the next. Poe loves his backyard duties and performs a full perimeter patrol every time he goes outside before relaxing. He's quiet when meeting strangers, preferring to take a moment to warm up before showing his true snuggly self. Poe is great in the car, fine with stairs, and overall an easy, happy guy to have around. He doesn't require another dog in the home but would enjoy one with a compatible energy level if introduced slowly. He's been known to patrol your yard by day and snuggle by night!
Ideal Home
Poe would thrive in a moderate-to-high activity home that can keep him busy. He loves walks, play sessions, and having a job to do. He is terrified of thunder, fireworks, and loud buzzing noises like bug zappers, so his adopter should be ready to comfort him during those moments.
Ongoing Health
Poe has no known health conditions.
Training & Support
Poe is fully house-trained and crate-trained. When it comes to walks, Poe does best if he's had a chance to burn off some energy first. If he heads out right away, he tends to pull from excitement, but with a little leash work and structure, he'll be a dream walking companion. He could benefit from continued leash training and learning a few more commands to help him be his best self, but he's eager to learn and loves pleasing his people.
