Rita - Pit Bull Terrier Dog for Adoption in Fresno, California

Meet Rita!

Rita is a lovely female Cattle Dog/Pit Bull mix who came to us from another local animal shelter and is ready to find a forever home of her own.

This sweet girl enjoys being around people and loves making new friends. Rita is also dog-friendly and would likely enjoy having canine companions to play with and spend time alongside. Whether it's going for walks, exploring the outdoors, or simply relaxing with her favorite people, Rita is happiest when she's part of the family.

Because of her background and instincts, Rita is not a good fit for a home with livestock. She would do best in a home where she can focus on being a beloved companion and family member.

Rita is looking for a family that will give her the love, stability, and care she deserves. If you're searching for a friendly, affectionate dog with plenty of love to give, Rita may be the perfect match for you!

Come meet Rita and see if she's the one you've been waiting for.
