My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

ADOPTION FEE SPONSORED BY FOHAS
Meet Lizard, a 3-year-old, 54-pound, neutered male Pitbull Terrier with a heart full of love! Lizard entered the shelter as a stray and has since been neutered by our medical team. Now, he's ready to find his forever family.
Lizard is a total sweetheart—his favorite thing is cuddling and getting love from his people. He’s easy to leash and walks with minimal pulling. He knows "sit" but is still learning some other commands. Lizard is calm around other dogs and doesn’t get upset walking by them, although a meet-and-greet is recommended if you have another dog at home.
Lizard was recently diagnosed with bilateral hip dysplasia and lumbar spinal spondylosis. He has been placed on medication and joint supplements to ease his discomfort. He walks gingerly and at some point will develop arthritis and increased stiffness of the joints. He continues to be a happy loving dog regardless.
If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will shower you with kisses and snuggles, Lizard is your guy! He’s available for foster-to-adopt for up to 30 days, so you can get to know him before making him part of your family.
Come meet Lizard today—he’s waiting to bring love and warmth to your home!
He is available for foster-to-adopt for up to 30 days.
