Shadow - Pit Bull Terrier and Chihuahua Dog for Adoption in Fairfield, Connecticut

Hello everyone! My name is Shadow, and I am an adorable 4-month-old, 19-pound Chihuahua/Pitbull mix puppy. I was confiscated from a home in Von Ormy, Texas, when my owners went to jail. The police placed my Chihuahua mom and Pitbull dad with a dog rescue, and because I was underweight, they placed me in the care of a local foster home. It turned out I just needed to be fed, and these days I am doing great! Vaccinated, neutered, microchipped, healthy, happy, and ready to find a forever family!

I am a friendly, well-socialized, and very sweet boy who instantly makes friends with humans of all ages, kitty cats, and dogs. I love playtime, and my favorite game is being chased while I run, weaving and dodging around obstacles with a toy in my mouth, and nobody can catch me! It's like watching the Running Back in a game of football! I am also extremely sweet and affectionate, and will give up playtime to snuggle beside you and share some kisses. I am doing great with housebreaking, and I know how to use a doggy door. My foster mom says I am smart, listen well, and I am not a destroyer or a barker. I'm just a sweet, happy, good boy who will make a fantastic addition to your family!
