Pit Bull Terrier and Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption in Kansas City, Missouri

**Adoption Fee Waived**

Mattel is a sweet, affectionate companion who's ready to find a forever home filled with love, cozy naps, and fun adventures.

Mattel is a 2-year-old, 58-pound boy-a wonderful medium-to-large size for walks, playtime, and couch cuddles.

He is incredibly sweet and affectionate with the people in his circle. Mattel can be a little shy when meeting new people and prefers to get acquainted at his own pace, but once he feels comfortable, his loving personality really shines. He loves snuggling on the couch, soaking up pets on his impossibly soft head, and leaning in for booty scratches.

His energy level is low to medium, making him a great fit for someone looking for a relaxed but playful companion. Mattel enjoys a couple of shorter walks a day, some playtime, occasional zoomie sessions, and even sunbathing outside. He has great leash manners, takes treats gently, and already knows several commands.

Mattel is fully potty trained, comfortable in a kennel, and respectful of baby gates. He absolutely loves toys and will happily carry them around or chew on them throughout the day. He especially enjoys tug games complete with fun dinosaur noises and the occasional short round of fetch.

This gentle boy would thrive in a home that offers patience, love, and a balance of outdoor time and relaxing evenings nearby his favorite people.

Mattel is neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccinations, and his adoption fee is waived, making this the perfect time to help him start his happily-ever-after.

Mattel is living in a foster home. If you would like to meet him, please email foster@kcpetproject.org ...

These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
