Carmen - Pit Bull Terrier Dog for Adoption in Anderson, Indiana

* Cutie with the prettiest gray and brown coloring
* Arrived at our shelter as a stray and we're shocked no one came looking
* Friendly and happy to greet new people, full of tail wags
* Enjoys attention and pets from her human besties
* Needs some work with basic manners and training- doesn't really know anything
* Does enjoy her treats, so would make a great training candidate
* LOVES her walks, but does think you need to move faster (pulls hard)
* Shy meeting dogs at the shelter, but warmed up and became playful with time
* Doesn't seem to have a lot of experience interacting with dogs, would likely need a slow, monitored introduction
* Curious of cats until hissed and swatted at, then preferred to leave them alone
* Lives in a foster home with older children
* Requires a heavy duty crate in her new home- has some separation anxiety when left alone
