Peter is an affectionate, intelligent 89-pound American Pit Bull Terrier mix who has grown from reserved and independent into a people-focused companion. He enjoys walks, adventures, toys, belly rubs, treats, and spending time beside his person. Peter walks well on leash, especially with a harness, and is learning the finer points of fetch.

Ideal Home

Peter would do best in an active, adult-only home with experience handling large, powerful breeds. He is currently considered a single-dog-home candidate and should have appropriate space around unfamiliar dogs. Peter is not suitable for a home with cats and has a high prey drive.

Ongoing Health

Peter is neutered and vaccinated. No medical conditions or health test results are stated.

Training & Support

Peter is treat motivated, takes treats gently, knows “sit,” walks well on leash, and is eager to learn. He loves stuffed toys and is beginning to learn fetch. Away from the shelter, he has shown calm confidence on walks through parks, neighborhoods, and busy public events, where he calmly accepts attention from strangers.
