Meet Bernard! He is a 3yr old neutered male American Pitbull Terrier/Dutch Shepherd mix that weighs 62lbs. He came into the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 11/17/2023 as a stray. This is one very special guy! He doesn't like being in his kennel and that is completely understandable. Once he is out, his entire disposition changes and you feel it as he walks calmly next to you with his tail held high. Not only is he very handsome, but he has a sweet, easy going personality, and always will flash you a smile. He is a very sweet, easy going boy that is affectionate and loving. He is well mannered, gentle and will put his head in your lap for pets. Walking past other dogs he did not show any interest, but we do always ask if there is another dog in the home please ask the shelter for a dog test. Bernard would make a great family companion. Having his own secured backyard to play in, but back inside where it is cool, to be close to his human companions is his dream. Can you help him make his dream come true? Come meet this great boy!
