Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier (medium coat). I came to HSVC from an overpopulated shelter in Los Angeles County, and Iâve been winning hearts ever since! At 2.5 years old, Iâm a bundle of fun-loving energy with a playful spirit that shines wherever I go. I love to zoom around the yard, chase after toys, and soak up all the attention from my human friends. Iâm also incredibly social, Iâve never met a stranger I didnât like, and Iâm quick to make new best friends wherever I go. Donât let my high-energy side fool you, though; Iâve got a sweet, affectionate streak and I know how to enjoy quiet time, too. Smart and eager to learn, Iâd thrive with an owner who enjoys training, adventure, and plenty of interactive play. If youâre looking for a goofy, lovable pup who balances fun and affection perfectly, I could be your match!

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.
