Navajo, a 6.5-year-old, 75-pound neutered male Pitbull mix, is a sweet, affectionate, and easygoing pup looking for his forever home. He’s the perfect blend of playful energy and relaxed companionship, happy to join you for a daily walk or snuggle up for a cozy evening. Navajo enjoys playing with other dogs in small groups and is generally good at reading social cues, though he may need gentle redirection when he gets overly excited. He’s done well with dogs of all sizes but is most comfortable with those his size or smaller. He’s polite and non-reactive on leash, though he might pull a bit when he's initially excited. Navajo is fully house-trained and crate-trained (though he doesn't need crating at home) and shows no signs of separation anxiety. He’s calm and easy to live with when left loose in the house. He loves meeting people and has done well around children, though interactions with very young children haven't been fully tested. Navajo would do best in a cat-free home due to a strong prey drive observed towards cats. He’s a proud toy enthusiast, often greeting you with his favorite stuffed animal, and he’s also a champion cuddler. Navajo is an excellent car rider, a favorite at the vet, has no issues with stairs, and enjoys napping in unusual spots like laundry baskets. He shows no resource guarding. Navajo needed dental work upon arrival, and several damaged teeth were removed, including his canines. His remaining teeth are healthy, and he still enjoys chewing his bones.
Ideal Home
Navajo would thrive in a stable, moderately active home that enjoys daily walks, occasional outings, and lots of affection. He doesn't need an ultra-active lifestyle, just consistent exercise, love, and companionship. He could do well as an only dog or with a compatible canine friend. He would do best in a cat-free home.
Ongoing Health
Navajo had several damaged teeth removed, including his canines, but his remaining teeth are healthy and he can still chew bones.
Training & Support
