Poe is a 4-year-old, neutered Pittie mix, weighing about 60 pounds. He's a delightful bundle of joy who is playful, loyal, and affectionate. Poe is an outgoing and fun-loving guy with a perfect mix of goofiness and smarts. He's the kind of dog who will make you laugh one minute and melt your heart the next, and he's always ready for a mini photo shoot! Poe loves tug toys, belly rubs, and hanging out with his humans. One of his most endearing quirks is that he takes his backyard duties very seriously, performing a full perimeter patrol 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.
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
No specific health conditions are mentioned.
Training & Support
Poe does best on walks 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. Poe is fully house-trained and crate-trained. He sleeps quietly through the night and is always fed in his crate to help keep mealtime calm and routine. He has never had any guarding issues with people and happily accepts treats or food from trusted hands.
