Dash is a gentle-hearted boy who's ready to race straight into your heart! This sweet 3-year-old Pit Bull Terrier mix was picked up as a stray with identification, but despite efforts to contact his owner, no one came for him. Now, Dash is looking ahead to a brighter future with a family that will love him forever.

Dash has a calm, affectionate personality and enjoys spending time with people. He is heartworm positive, but heartworm disease is treatable with proper veterinary care and time, and it doesn't stop him from being an amazing companion. If you're looking for a loyal best friend with a kind soul and plenty of love to give, Dash is ready to make himself right at home by your side.
