Reese - Pit Bull Terrier and Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Effingham, Illinois

This is Reese, a young female bully mix who was found as a stray, and then later identified by unwanted by her previous owner. After some much needed TLC and a good, consistent diet she is now healing and feeling much better! She's so cute, you just can't get enough of her. She is weighs about 50 pounds and full of love! She would do best in a home without cats but has been fine with other dogs and people. She would also do best with older children! She is spayed, microchipped, up to date on vaccines and is on heartworm, flea and tick meds!

If you'd like to welcome her into your family, please submit an adoption application via our website, www.effinghamanimalrescue.com.
