Valkarie - Cane Corso Mastiff / Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed Dog For Adoption Valkarie - Mutt Female Dog For Adoption in Kankakee, Illinois, USA

Dog Breed: Cane Corso Mastiff / Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed.

Meet Valkyrie! Valkyrie is a 1 year old, approximately 45–50 lb Cane Corso/Pit Bull mix with a sprinkle of German Shepherd, confirmed through Embark DNA testing. She's a spunky, athletic girl with plenty of personality and drive! Her favorite activities include playing frisbee, chasing a ball, going on walks, and learning new things. She's an intelligent dog who enjoys having a purpose and thrives when given opportunities to use both her brain and body. Despite her young age, Valkyrie has already earned quite the collection of titles through AKC Partners: - AKC STAR Puppy - Canine Good Citizen (CGC) - Trick Dog Novice - Fit Dog Bronze Valkyrie needs an experienced, committed home that understands dogs with drive and is willing to continue investing in her training. Structure, consistency, appropriate outlets, and good management are necessities for this girl. A few important things to know: - No children: Valkyrie is not suited for a home with children and will need an adult-only household where her needs, boundaries, and comfort can be prioritized. - Other dogs: Valkyrie enjoys the company of other dogs with proper introductions. She can be a bit pushy at times, particularly when toys are involved, and can occasionally be leash reactive toward unfamiliar dogs. She does well with appropriate boundaries and management. - No cats or small animals: Her prey drive makes her unsuitable for a home with smaller animals. - Escape artist: Secure containment and an owner willing to stay one step ahead of her are essential. This hasn't been an easy decision. Valkyrie is incredibly loved, but due to changing family circumstances and future plans, her current home is no longer the best fit for her needs. Her family wants to make sure she has the opportunity to thrive in an environment better suited to her, even if that means making a difficult decision out of love. We're hoping to find someone who appreciates everything this girl has to offer, understands her limitations, and genuinely enjoys working with a dog who needs more than just a daily walk. Valkyrie has so much potential and so much to offer the right person. She deserves a home that understands her, advocates for her, and gives her the structure and adventures she thrives on.
