Hank - Pit Bull Terrier Dog for Adoption in Lewis Center, Ohio

My name is Hank. I'm a 9 - 10 week old mix breed pup. The kind veterinarian who took care of me and my siblings after Rico took us in thinks I may be a Pitbull mix puppy. I'm a very handsome guy. I have unusual physical features with a beautiful brindle coat, a tiny white triangle on my snout, and a partial heterochromia in my left eye.

I'm a little more reserved than my siblings. I am still very active and playful, but sometimes I prefer to sit back rather than be in the middle of it all. My favorite activities are playing with toys, chasing my siblings through the yard, and stretching out in the sun. I also like to chase after the big resident dogs. I know how to "sit" and I'm working on "shake".

My dream is to have my very own special family. If you adopt me, I promise I'll be a good boy. If you'd like to meet me, go to ricopetrecovery.org and complete the adoption application.

The adoption fee for Hank is $350 and includes the first two sets of vaccines, the neuter surgery and a microchip at our partner clinic when Hank is old enough for surgery. The adopter is responsible for all remaining vaccines and veterinary care.
