BRUTUS - Pit Bull Terrier Dog for Adoption in Bowling Green, Ohio

BRUTUS ended up in the shelter when his owner went to the hospital for a few weeks. The family said they would claim him, but then changed their minds, so BRUTUS needs a new home.

BRUTUS is 5 years old, he weighs 60 lbs, he's had his DA2PP and bordetella vaccines and he is listed as a Pit Bull Terrier mix. BRUTUS is not yet neutered, but he is on the list at the vet. If BRUTUS is not neutered prior to adoption, his adoption fee includes a $75 voucher to be used toward his neuter surgery at the vet of your choice.

BRUTUS is a very nice, easy-going friendly guy who seems to have good basic manners and loves tennis balls!

It is difficult to tell whether or not a dog is housebroken in the shelter setting, so it is best to assume they are not and be pleasantly surprised if they are!

BRUTUS has been fine around the other dogs at the shelter, but nothing is known about how he is with kids or cats since there are neither there. Please bring your kids, dog(s), and even your cat(s), if possible, to the shelter for a meet and greet with the help of the warden or deputies just to be sure everyone gets along before taking BRUTUS home!
