Poe is a 4-year-old, neutered Pittie mix, weighing about 60 lbs, and he's a bundle of joy who is playful, loyal, and affectionate. He's an outgoing, fun-loving guy with the perfect mix of goofiness and smarts – the kind of dog who will make you laugh one minute and melt your heart the next. Poe also loves to pose for photos! He is being fostered in Austin, Texas.
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. His bark might sound tough, but underneath it all, he's the biggest baby who just wants to feel safe.
Ongoing Health
Poe is a healthy boy!
Training & Support
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. 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.
