Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier (short coat). Surrendered due to owner moving. Previous bio: BLUE - 3 years old, 50 pounds, not yet house trained, friendly, good with kids and female dogs, selective with male dogs, sweet, protective, pulls on leash. Quiet and demure Blue sat patiently as I headed his way. He knew it was his turn. Out we went, He pulled me along and he is very strong I might add! In the yard, he was curious, sniffing. He would run to see other dogs outside the fence but only to look. We are told Blue is a sweet boy who is also protective. Help us help Blue find a forever home where he can be the baby now!

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.
