Navajo, a 6.5-year-old, neutered male Pitbull mix weighing around 75 pounds, is a sweet, affectionate, and easygoing pup looking for his forever home! He's currently in a foster home in San Antonio, Texas, and is ready to travel to his approved adopter. Navajo offers the perfect blend of playful energy and relaxed companionship, happy to join you on daily walks or curl up for a cozy evening. He enjoys playing with other dogs, especially in one-on-one or small group settings, and is generally good with dogs of all sizes, though he tends to be most comfortable with those his own size or smaller. He's a polite and non-reactive leash walker, though he might pull a little when excited at the start of a walk. Navajo is fully house-trained and crate-trained, and can be left loose in the house without issue. He's friendly with people and has done well around children, though interactions with very young children haven't been fully tested. He's an excellent car rider and a favorite at the vet! Navajo loves toys and is a champion cuddler who enjoys being close to his people. He has no resource guarding issues with food, treats, toys, or people.
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 due to a strong prey drive and fixation toward cats observed during a boarding stay.
Ongoing Health
Navajo needed dental work upon arrival and had several damaged teeth removed, including his canines. His remaining teeth are healthy, and he still happily chews his favorite bones.
Training & Support
Navajo generally reads social cues well but may occasionally need gentle redirection if he gets a little too excited during play. He can pull a little at the start of walks when he's excited, but settles into a pleasant walking partner.
