Adopt a Pit Bull Terrier

Pit Bull Terrier Dog

Pete the Dog needs a home

Handsome Pete is looking for an adopter as active as he is! Adopt Pete today.



Big fan of: Tennis balls! When it comes to fetch, Pete is a professional. This playful pup is in his element when he’s chasing and retrieving a tennis ball at top speed. Running, jogging, hiking—if it involves movement—Pete is up for it!



Special features: Pete is a fast learner. This smart guy has already mastered “sit,” and is eager to learn a few more tricks. Pete needs continued training and socialization in his new home. He gets along with most large dogs and likes to say “hello” with an energetic bark. Pete should continue to meet new friends in a one-on-one setting. A routine walking schedule will help Pete learn to only use the bathroom outside.



Dream home: A home with a yard to play fetch in would be a dream come true for this active boy. He is looking for an experienced adopter and a home with teens-and-up.
