Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier. NALA - 2 years 6 months 1 week old, 45 pounds, playful, does great with humans, rough with dogs, no small animals As a pup, Nala was adopted and has spent over 2 years with her family. She was surrendered when they moved to an apartment and could not bring her along. This girl was loved. It's funny how sometimes you can just feel it and when I look at the information we were given about this pretty grey and white gal, you can tell. They know her age to the week. They listed her as loving all kinds of toys, plush, tug, squeaky. And they told us how wonderful she is with humans, even the small ones. Nala is described as a sweetheart! She warmed up to all of us pretty quickly as well. AWESOME! She has a tendency to play rough with other dogs so supervision will be important. Nala is known for chasing small critters so no cats for this girl and while on walks, it might behoove you to keep a tight grip on that leash. LOL She enjoys going for rides in the car and loves to hang out free roaming with her family. She is used to sleeping in the garage. Nala is a friendly easy-to-walk and easy-to-be-around girl. Nala is currently in our medium dog adoption kennel. Come out to meet her 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.
