Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier. Adoption Fee: 375. Kevin is a young, compact pittie mix with a sweet soul and a playful streak. He’s crate trained, house trained, sleeps through the night, and is the ideal work-from-home buddy—quiet, mellow, and happy to snooze by your side while you take calls and get things done. But don’t worry—Kevin exhibits no separation anxiety. He’s perfectly content hanging in his crate or relaxing solo when you head out, and he hasn’t shown any destructive behavior when left outside the crate, either. Kevin lives peacefully with a female dog and gets along great with other pups. Kevin would do best in a home with a confident pup to follow around. He already knows sit, wait, and crate and is working on shake and lay down. He’s food-motivated and highly trainable, and his leash manners improve every day. A little timid at first, Kevin would do best in a home that will understand that he acclimates slowly. Once he feels comfortable, he’s a pup that can totally accompany you on your adventures, but would do best in a home that will go slowly with him. Once you're in, he’s affectionate, cuddly, and easy to handle—he tolerates paw wipes, wears clothes and bandanas like a pro, and just wants to be part of the pack. He’s ready for a forever home that will keep building his confidence and show him just how good life can be. Our data base requires us to give an animal a breed. The breed given to the dog is our best estimate, and should not be used to predict future behavior.

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.
