Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier (medium coat). Ahoy! Popeye here! Iâm a calm, seasoned soul with a lot of love to give. As a retired food critic, I know all the best snacks and Iâm an expert at catching them midair! These days, I prefer the simple things: soft beds, slow walks, and soaking up the sunshine. But donât let me chill vibes fool you â Iâve still got big opinions, and Iâm not afraid to share them with a well-timed side-eye or dramatic sigh. Iâm affectionate with my favorite people, and I enjoy giving them kisses and getting cuddles. Because staff want me to be successful in my new home, Iâve been awarded a Goodpup Scholarship (a $200 value) which is one-on-one training at no cost to the adopter! Scroll down to check out both my videos!

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.
