Description
Posted Breed: Pit Bull Terrier. Age: 3 Years Sex: Spayed Female Estimated Breed: PBTx Weight: 50 lbs Good with dogs?: Yes Good with cats?: Yes, with proper introduction Good with children?: Special/Medical Needs: Food intolerance Energy Level: Medium / High Adoption Fee: $650 Foster Home Location: Edmonton, AB Waverly is ready to find her furever home! Following is a bio for her and please find the pictures attached. I also have an Instagram account strictly for my foster dogs that you may find further pictures/ videos of Waverly, FraserHouseDrools The best way to describe Waverly is as a playful, happy-go-lucky wiggle-butt. When she gets excited, her tail wags so hard that half her body wags with it. Waverly is a medium-high energy dog. She loves to play with humans, toys and other dogs but can settle down on her bed with a toy and happily chew for hours. Waverly gets along with dogs of all sizes and ages and will happily play with anyone who shows the slightest bit of interest and demonstrated respect for her much older and much smaller foster siblings when they didn't want to play. She displayed minor resource guarding of her crate while getting cuddles towards one of the smaller dogs but was easily verbally redirected. She has not been tested around cats, but I suspect she would be just fine with proper introductions and a dog-savvy cat as she showed no desire to chase her 6-lb cat-like foster brother. She is a strong dog and would be best suited to someone who has experience with bully breeds. Waverly goes into her crate easily and has shown no signs of separation anxiety (the next-door neighbour reports she is a quiet and lovely neighbour while her foster mom is at work). Waverly is fully house trained, not a single accident and will let you know if she needs out. Waverly LOVES going on walks and gets so excited she can pull a bit but has shown no signs of leash reactivity and is easily redirected when she spots rabbits or magpies that like to tease her. Waverly has been one of the most delightful foster dogs, and I will miss her dearly. This sweet girl deserves to find her furever family, and whoever that may be will be incredibly lucky to have sweet Waverly in their life. Waverly does have a food allergy and her forever home will have to commit to feeding an allergy-friendly diet to keep her happy and comfortable!

Overview:
The American Pit Bull Terrier (APBT) is a robust and intelligent breed, originating in the United States from crossbreeding Old English Terriers and Old English Bulldogs for dog-fighting purposes. Physically, they are medium-sized, known for their muscular build, broad heads, and powerful jaws, typically weighing between 30-60 pounds. Their coats are short and come in a wide array of colors. Temperamentally, a well-socialized APBT is often described as loyal, affectionate, and people-oriented, displaying a playful and sometimes clownish demeanor. They can be excellent family companions, provided they receive consistent training and early socialization, though their high energy levels mean they thrive with active owners. While they can adapt to apartment living with sufficient exercise, a house with a secure yard is often preferred. Notable health considerations include a predisposition to hip and elbow dysplasia, allergies, and certain heart conditions.
