Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier (short coat). Adoption Fee: 410. MAPLE (watch my video!) Female, spayed 2 years old Pit Bull Terrier 40 lbs. Microchipped, up-to-date on core vaccines and takes monthly flea/tick/heartworm prevention Dog friendly; untested with cats; friendly towards young kids, but wants to jump Meet Maple! If you’re looking for a dog friendly walking buddy, a fetch champion and a goofy sidekick all rolled into one, Maple might just be your girl! This spunky sweetheart keeps her foster family laughing with her antics and endless love for play. Maple brings joy to every moment, always on the lookout for fun—whether she’s chasing after squeaky toys, bounding happily through the yard, or eagerly bringing back her ball in a lively game of fetch. Her playful spirit never fails to brighten the day. When she’s not in motion, a frozen peanut butter–stuffed Kong keeps her content and occupied in her crate until she falls asleep. Maple probably faced some tough times before her rescue, arriving at the shelter underweight and in need of care. Now, she's on a journey to gain weight and learn to trust the wonderful people around her. With just a simple treat, Maple's gentle spirit shines through—and once she trusts you, she’s deeply loyal and loving, happily snuggling up after a long, fun-filled day. Maple is a curious girl — especially when it comes to finding things to put in her mouth. It’s part of her charm, but she’ll need a family that’s mindful of what’s within paw’s reach. Maple’s ideal adopter will be someone who will give her the structure and confidence she needs, while also appreciating her bright, playful spirit. In return, she’ll give you endless laughs, affection, and a loyal companion for every adventure. Interested in adopting? Of course you are! Submit an application here!

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.
