Description
Dog Breed: American Pit Bull Terrier (medium coat). Please meet Rebecca (aka Bex, Bexter, Bexie, Bex Baby), the most adorable low rider and lovebug with an epic floppy left ear that you will want to admire endlessly! While she can be shy and unsure in new situations, with some patience, you will learn that she has the most gentle nature, impeccable manners, and a sweet, loving disposition. Bex is housetrained and walks well on a leash. She knows her basic commands and loves training sessions, as it's an opportunity to bond with and be closer with her humans. Bex is just as happy on the couch with her humans as she is taking her daily trips to the park for sniffing expeditions. She gravitates towards the simple joys in life, and encourages you to, as well. One of her favorite things is when everyone in the house is together at the same time. In the evenings, she will walk from room to room trying to bring everyone together for family time. It's an extremely effective strategy! With her commitment to prioritizing love and affection over everything else (including food and treats), Bex is an incredible role model of reminding us what's most important in life. If you're lucky enough to adopt her, she will fill your home with love and laughter. To see more photos of this adorable love check out her photo album here: tinyurl/AdoptableRebecca

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.
