Adopt a Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (short coat)
Noodle the Dog needs a home
Hi there humans, my Name is Noodle. People tell me I’m a looker-I’m a 2 year old, low-rider bully breed mix with golden eyes. I’m originally from Fresno but have been living here at Family Dog Rescue for a handful of months now, patiently waiting for someone to give me a chance.
When I first arrived to the shelter I was SO frightened, I didn’t know who to trust or that humans could be so nice. But with some time, I’ve come to realize humans can be awesome!! I have a few humans whom I LOVE and feel so comfortable with. I’ll even run up to them wagging my tail and roll over for some belly rubs. My favorite humans keep telling me that there are tons of other humans who want to love me too, but I’m still getting used to that idea. I want to give love and be loved, but I need practice and patience. Once I love a human, I only have eyes for them!!
Lately I’ve been really brave and have been pushing myself to let other humans into my circle. I even go for walks through the neighborhood now!! I’m so proud of myself. Before I came to Family Dog, no one really gave me a chance to be socialized, so all of this is new for me. My humans tell me I’m doing great.
A few of my favorite things include, belly rubs, making pig-snorting noises when I’m excited, snuggling with my office mate (I’m lucky to share an office with one of my favorite humans!) sleeping on soft blankets, chicken jerky, stuffed kongs, and classical music.
I like other dogs for the most part, I’ve lived with a few. If you choose to come meet me at the shelter, please understand I’ll need some time to warm up and to trust you. But I promise if you give me that chance, I will give you unconditional love. I’d love to go home with someone who has some shy dog experience and will be understanding of me. I would also really benefit from a patient and loving foster home that will help me continue to blossom. Sometimes being at the shelter can be loud and stressful, so I’d love to see what it’s like to live in a real home.
Here’s what my office mate has to say about me:
“Noodle has been living in my office with me for the past couple of months since she arrived. At first, no one could get very close to her. It was almost as if she hadn’t ever had the chance to receive love from a human. But very quickly she warmed up to me, and within a couple of days she was wagging her tail and always excited to see me. A couple more weeks went by and now she had a fan club, everyone thinks she is so cute here. She has five or six people whom she feels really comfortable with now. She loves getting snuggled and pet, and even is getting more confident going for walks. I see so much potential in this dog and know she would make a wonderful companion. It would be incredibly rewarding to watch this dog grow and blossom into a confident and happy pooch. All it will take is love and patience. I know her person is out there!”
