Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier (medium coat). Meet Bella, a senior pittie mix with the heart of a pup and the wisdom of a gal who knows the value of a good nap. Sheâs got a happy-go-lucky attitude, a wiggly butt, and just the right amount of sass to keep you smiling. Bella loves getting out for a stroll and stretching her legsâbut donât expect her to train for a marathon. Sheâs more of a âwalk to the corner and back, then letâs find snacks and watch TVâ kind of girl. Sheâs the perfect balance of playful and mellow, always up for some fresh air, but just as thrilled to be your couch buddy. Bella would thrive with someone who enjoys the simple things in lifeâgood company, short walks, and belly rubs. If that sounds like your speed, come meet this delightful senior sweetheart at 548 W Foster Rd. in Santa Maria. The shelter is open Tuesday through Sunday, 10 AM to 5 PM

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.
