Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier / Dalmatian (short coat). Aubrie Needs A Home Our sweet senior is a gentle soul in desperate need of a peaceful place to rest her head. At an advanced age and battling severe arthritis and hip dysplasia, this sweet girl is not thriving in the shelter environment. The concrete floors, noise, and lack of consistent one-on-one comfort are taking a toll on her spirit and her health. Aubrie’s condition has left her with limited mobility, and the inactivity has caused her to gain weight, making her pain worse. She is currently on a pain management plan, but she would greatly benefit from a quiet home where her diet and comfort can be better managed. While there are no guarantees, we believe that in the right home with love, patience, and compassionate care, Aubrie's quality of life could improve. Aubrie isn’t asking for forever, just for peace, comfort, and kindness in her final chapter. She needs a hospice foster, hospice placement, or an adopter who understands this is likely an end-of-life situation. In return, she will give you gratitude and affection. Aubrie still has love to give and longs for a warm bed and a caring hand. Important Placement Information: • Aubrie cannot live with other dogs. • No children under 16 please. • We're unsure how she does with cats. • Hospice fosters will receive full support. Please help us write a beautiful ending to Aubrie’s story. If you can open your heart and your home to a senior dog in need, reach out to us today.

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.
