Jimmy, a 1.5-year-old, neutered male Pitbull Terrier mix weighing around 45 pounds, is a bundle of joy with two favorite settings: full throttle and full snuggle! He's a happy-go-lucky, energetic boy who greets everyone with a tail wag that seems to move at lightning speed. Jimmy is playful, curious, and loves to make friends, both human and canine.
Ideal Home
Jimmy would thrive in an active home where he gets plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. An active family who will include him in daily life would be wonderful. While a yard is a bonus, engagement and companionship are most important. He would love a work-from-home human or a family that can provide him with plenty of interaction. He may be too enthusiastic for very young children without supervision and has not been tested with cats, but may chase at this stage.
Ongoing Health
Jimmy is neutered and up to date on vaccinations.
Training & Support
Jimmy is fully house-trained and is making great strides with crate training, starting to see it as a safe space. He can be left alone for moderate periods (4-6 hours), especially with another dog. He is still polishing his leash manners and can pull when excited, but with consistency and positive reinforcement, he is improving quickly as he is very food and praise motivated. He has no known resource guarding issues.
