Pit Bull Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption in Belleville, Illinois

Drumstick is a 1-year-old sweetheart who may start off a little shy, but give him just a moment to get comfortable and his true personality comes popping out. Once he warms up, he turns into a bouncy, playful bundle of joy who clearly loves to have fun. He does wonderfully with other dogs and gains a lot of confidence when he has a buddy to bounce around with.

Drumstick is also a big fan of the softer things in life. Cuddles are high on his list of priorities, right alongside tasty treats, which he happily accepts as tokens of friendship. With his gentle heart, playful energy, and affectionate nature, Drumstick is the kind of dog who blossoms beautifully with a little patience and a lot of love.
