Mabel is a 2.5-year-old, 64-pound pit bull mix with a heart as big as her love for snuggles. She was found abandoned and scared but has blossomed into a sweet, affectionate girl who adores people. Her favorite activities include cuddling up close, showering her humans with kisses, going on car rides, and being the center of attention. Mabel is a happy, outgoing dog who is wonderful with children, and has shown particular gentleness and patience with an autistic child in her foster home. She enjoys playing with other medium to large dogs and can sometimes get a bit overexcited during play, but she is learning her cues. While she can pull on leash when excited to greet other dogs, she is making good progress with her manners. She would likely do well with a playful, tolerant dog companion or as the sole canine royalty of her home. Mabel is generally not destructive when left unsupervised and prefers to sleep cuddled up with her people rather than in a crate. She may need a little extra patience and support during vet visits and procedures.
Ideal Home
