AQUILA - TERRIER / PIT BULL TERRIER / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Terrier / Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed. Aquila is a moderate energy dog who loves walks but also loves her naps and doesn’t seem to show any separation anxiety. She enjoys her kennel and will go lay in it on her own free will as well as when commanded to. She is housetrained and has not had a single accident in the house. She rides well in the car, sitting nicely in the backseat. I’m not sure about cats but she didn’t seem to be too concerned as mine is mostly outside; my cat was looking in the window and Aquila was checking her out but didn’t become agitated or excited, just curious. She does bark at times but it’s not excessive and stops when directed. She has some basic obedience and listens well. She loves her snacks and treats and eats well. I’ve introduced her to some other dogs and she is a bit enthusiastic in her approach but not aggressive. As she came from a home with children I feel a family home would be a good placement. Aquila is an absolute sweetheart and will be an amazing family dog. I’ll be sad to see her go but I know she will have great life in her forever home as she is a great dog. Aquila is a 2-3 year old American Pit Bull Terrier mix. Aquila was dumped by here owner when her owner was being evicted. Aquila was found as a stray she had been picked up once before by Animal Control so they called her owner. The owner stated her dog had disappeared & that was not her dog (she was found next to the house she lived in). Aquila lived with kids before ending up at the shelter. Aquila was very scared & became reactive with the Animal Control Officer, she warmed up quickly to the volunteer who wasn’t in uniform. While in the shelter she would growl & bark at the ACO’s which worked keeping them away, that became her go to when scared. Aquila extremely head shy & will growl & snap in the air as a warning. Aquila is going to a trainer for the next week to make sure she is going to be ok in kennel around other dogs. We will find out on the 5th if she is spayed we do believe she is. She is up to date on shots.
