Flower - Pit Bull Terrier and Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Columbia, Missouri

From Flower's previous family: My name is Flower. I'm a very loving snuggle buddy who has couch potato energy when indoors but transforms into an energetic, playful pup outside. Prefers to be the center of attention. Not a fan of cats. Loves to go on walks. Would prefer having a fenced backyard to run around in and play fetch. Good with older children. Knows how to sit, shake and fetch. Crate/ kennel trained. Knows to alert she needs to go outside or when she wants food or water."
