Description
Dog Breed: American Pit Bull Terrier. Adoption Fee: $150.00. All of the animals posted on our site have been temperament tested. While not all are in the immediate area, once we have processed and approved your application, we will move the dog to our adoptive area for you to meet, greet and hopefully adopt. Sometimes we will have more than one application on a dog. That does not mean it automatically goes to another family but you should be aware of the fact that until you are approved and set up for the meet/greet.. the dog could get adopted by another applicant. NOTE- DIAMOND IS LISTED AS A COURTESY FOR ANOTHER RESCUE ORGANIZATION. PLEASE SEE CONTACT INFO BELOW. CONTACT DEE AT k9rescuevagmail Diamond is a beautiful, sweet, and affectionate blue pittie girl. She is the SWEETEST thing. She seems to be a very low key lady. She is often catching a snooze in her bed. When briefly in foster she was a couch potato and did well with crate training! She does prefer to be the only pup in your life. She LOVES a good belly rub and butt scratch. Diamond gives kisses and will "paw" you if you stop petting, she loves to lean against you for her scratches. Diamond now weighs about 70 lbs. Diamond is quiet and reserved, and will bond quickly with her humans. Diamond is dog-reactive and defensive when meeting other dogs, and shows a high prey drive for small fuzzy animals (cats, squirrels, possums,etc.); she should not live with other pets. Diamond is a big girl, and pulls strongly on her leash, she needs obedience and leash training. She cannot go to dog parks, and must be handled carefully on walks where she may encounter other animals. She's not actively aggressive, but will not back down if another dog acts aggressive towards her. She would thrive in a home with a fenced in yard. She just needs a home where she can focus on her people, and just give them all her love for years to come. Diamond needs an experienced bully owner who understands the breed, and is willing to work with her. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN ADOPTING DIAMOND, PLEASE CONTACT: DEE AT k9rescuevagmail

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.
