July is an 8-year-old, 59-pound, spayed female Pitbull mix with a heart as big as her adorable smile. Rescued from a county shelter in Houston, Texas, she's lived successfully in both apartment and house settings. July is the ultimate companion, happiest when curled up beside her favorite people, whether she's resting her head on your chest or soaking up endless back scratches. She has a moderate energy level, enjoying a couple of walks a day and playful toy sessions, complete with the cutest zoomies you've ever seen. Once she's had her fun, she's ready for cuddle time. July is friendly towards other dogs and would likely enjoy a canine companion, but she's also content being an only pet. She walks nicely on a leash, rides well in the car, and shows no reaction to other dogs on walks. July is fully house-trained, comfortable in her crate, and generally non-destructive, though she might occasionally "borrow" an unattended sandal. She's eager to please and would benefit from continued leash training. While she hasn't been tested with cats, her gentle nature suggests she'd do well in a family home. Due to her size and exuberance during zoomies, supervised play with very young children is recommended. July is described as low-maintenance, affectionate, and loving, and she will thrive in any home that offers love and a cozy spot to snuggle.
