Adopt a American Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (short coat)
Asia the Dog needs a home
This beautiful girl is Asia! Asia is an 8 year old Pit mix who weighs 62 pounds. Asia found herself on death row at a high kill NYC shelter. She was an owner surrender to ?Manhattan ACC for: "cannot afford medical". Asia has a mass on her side and favors one of her back legs and we are making sure she gets the medical care she needs. Asia had great shelter notes...a volunteer says that she walks nicely on leash, greets other dogs with a friendly demeanor and seems to really enjoy their company, and her energy levels are as peppy as a dog half her age! They called her the ‘velvet hippo’ which is so fitting as her silver fur is silky soft and her body low riding and chunky enough to snuggle any which way you please. Her previous owner said that she can get scared at fireworks and loud noises. She is a good girl and is house and crate trained. Asia is up to date on vaccines and will be spayed prior to placement in her forever home. Asia does not do well with cats, so a NO CAT home is a must. It is recommended at this time that if there are other animals in the home that they are similar in size to Asia. This precious girl is such an affectionate sweetheart and we are rooting for her to find her forever family soon!
