Story
This poor girl was just abandoned and left at the fosters house. The owner said she would be back for her but never came back or heard from again. Sally loves people but as far as kids go, she is better with older kids than younger kids. She is still working on being housetrained but is doing really well with it. She is good with other dogs but would recommend that they feed separately as she is very protective of her food dish. She is up to date on all shots, fixed and ready for a nice forever home with someone to love her so she can return that love. She really just needs a forever home - are you the family for Sally? If you're willing to love and care for her she will do the same for you. She would be a great family member for the right person. She is being fostered in TN but the transport to your area is included in her fee. We use Rescue Riders Pet Transport, the most animal-friendly transport on the road.

American Pit Bull Terrier/American Staffordshire Terrier

Male, 2 yrs
Hartford, CT
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained,
Story
This boy was surrendered due to the wife not wanting him around a newborn. Bob did nothing wrong and is a well behaved boy. He does need time to get used to new people but warms up pretty quickly. He gets along with other dogs and likes to play. He loves tennis balls and loves to chase them... he can fit 2 in his mouth at a time. He does well on a leash and is house broken. He does like children but will need time to adjust to their energy. He can get a little protective over what he considers "his" but is not a mean protector.... more bark than bite. Some added people socialization would probably help him. He is a good boy who was given a raw deal by his supposed family so he;s now looking for a new chance. He is located in Tennessee but can be transported through Rescue Riders.
