I am your Loyal Shadow, Professional Cuddle Expert, and Biggest Cheerleader.
I am a 7-year-old Pit Bull/Lab mix with a heart as big as my personality. Once I trust you, I will become your constant companion, a true Velcro dog who wants nothing more than to be near my favorite person. I am affectionate, hilarious, expressive, and incredibly intuitive. I seem to know exactly when you need comfort and I am always ready to offer cuddles, companionship, and my signature goofy personality. I love relaxing on the couch, soaking up the sunshine, joining you for car rides, and even participating in workouts, yoga, and stretching sessions. I have lived successfully with multiple dogs throughout my life, including another Pit Bull mix, a small dog, and a blind Australian Shepherd. While I can coexist with other dogs, I believe I would thrive either as the only pet or with one calm, well-matched canine companion. I can be anxious around very young children and would do best in a home without them. I have lived with older children ages 8 and 10 with no issues. Children 8 years old and older would be best. I am not really into toys, but I do love cuddling on the couch, booty scratches (my absolute favorite!), car rides with the air conditioning on, sunbathing, following my people around the house, helping with yard work, joining workouts, yoga, and stretching sessions, relaxing indoors on rainy days, and rotisserie chicken.
Ideal Home
My ideal forever home is calm, predictable, and patient. I would thrive with someone who enjoys a quieter lifestyle and wants a deeply loyal companion by their side. A home without small children is essential, and I would especially love an owner who understands that trust takes time but is rewarded with my unwavering devotion. Whether it's a woman looking for a constant companion or a patient man willing to let me warm up at my own pace, I am searching for someone who will cherish me for the loving, sensitive, and wonderfully unique dog I am.
Ongoing Health
No ongoing health issues mentioned.
Training & Support
I am fully potty trained and do well when left alone, and I have excellent house manners. On walks, I can be startled by scooters, bicycles, and large trucks, so continued confidence-building and patient handling with my humans will be helpful. I can be nervous around new people and unfamiliar situations and typically need a little time and patience to warm up, especially with men.
