Pit Bull Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption in Fairbanks, Alaska

Badger (A138041) is a 4-year-old Pitbull who weighed 67.4 pounds on intake! 05/25/26 This goofball is Badger! Badger arrived at the shelter as a stray and is now looking for his new place to call home. Badger has a history of being at large and is looking for a home that can keep him safely contained. He should always be on a leash, secure tie-out, or supervised when in a fenced-in yard. He seems to love going on adventures and would love to find a home that can provide him with plenty of outings and enrichment. We do not know if he has experience with other animals, so please ensure you are making appropriate introductions with all new critters to help set him up for success. While at the shelter, Badger has done well at going potty outdoors, but we do not know if he is fully housebroken. We also encourage his next owner to bring him to a basic obedience class with a certified trainer to continue working on his manners. He is a sweet boy looking for his right fit! If you are interested in meeting Badger, please let us know!
