Pit Bull Terrier and Boxer Dogs Available for Adoption in Mount Gilead, Ohio

Dumpling is a senior girl who is looking for a couch to hang out on and a friend to watch movies with. We guess her to be around 8 yrs old and she is around 70 lbs. Dumpling arrived as a stray so we do not have history for her but during her time here we have learned that she likes toys, soft beds, and snacks. She does know some commands and walks decent on leash. She can be reactive to some dogs so she will need to have a meet and greet with any potential housemates.
We do not know how she is with cats or children.
**please note she may do best as an only dog BUT we will allow meet and greets. Sometimes dogs do not react well in the shelter setting to the other dogs that are also here.

Dumpling will be spayed, vaccinated, heartworm tested, and microchipped as part of her adoption.

If you are interested in her please stop in to meet and complete an application.
Dogs do not go home the same day as meeting.
