✨ Zuri ✨

🐾 Age: ~ 7ish months
🧩 Breed: pit bull and whippet?? We guess she'll be under 30lbs.
🐶 Spunky, energetic and playful, but also very snuggly
🎓 Learning quickly!

Zuri and her siblings were born around Halloween 2025. They didn't have much, but now they're settling into foster homes and experiencing stability and security for the first time.

Zuri is potty trained and crate trained. She's smaller than she looks in photos, and while her breed mix is anyone's guess, she probably won't reach 30lbs as an adult. She's going to training classes with her foster and showing off all her smarts!

Adoption fee: $400, includes worming, puppy vaccincnes, microchip and spay.
