Bichota - Pit Bull Terrier Dog for Adoption in Coachella, California

Hi! My name is Bichota, but you can also call me Karol G.

Wondering how I got my name? My foster family had just been at a Karol G concert, and after everything I had been through, they thought Bichota was perfect for me. The word has come to represent a strong, confident, empowered woman who knows her worth, and apparently, that's me.

My story started a little rough.

My fosters witnessed a homeless man physically abusing me in plain sight. They couldn't just stand there and watch, so they intervened and got me away from him. That day changed my life. Instead of being hurt, I learned what it feels like to be protected, loved, and treated like the baby I still am.

And despite what happened to me, I LOVE people. Seriously talk to me in a baby voice and give me lots of amorcito and I'm yours.

I'm a super playful, active little girl with lots of puppy energy. One of my favorite things in the world is playing ball. I'll even bring it right back and put it in your hand because obviously the game cannot continue unless you throw it again!

I'm also a pretty smart cookie. I listen well and usually understand what you're asking without you having to tell me over and over.

I'm social, I'm not much of a barker, and I'm not easily provoked. Sometimes new things make me nervous or a little scared, but remember, I'm still just a baby learning about this big world. I need someone who will continue showing me that I'm safe.

Other dogs? Yes! I can do well with other dogs with a proper, slow introduction.

Cats? I can get along with them too, although I'm still a puppy and can be a little clumsy and overly enthusiastic sometimes.

Most importantly, I'm looking for a family who understands that adopting a puppy means continuing my training, socialization, exercise, and lots and lots of love.

My past may be part of my story, but it doesn't define me.

I'm Bichota, I survived the hard part. Now I'm ready for the good part.

Who's ready to give this little Bichota her forever home?
