Pit Bull Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption in Pasadena, California

#A5766461 Ava
is a 12-year-old Pitbull with the gentlest soul and the sweetest “Golden Girl” energy.

This 59lb senior came in as a stray on March 31, 2026, and urgently needs a loving home to land in.
Ava is currently sick and taking medication, but even while not feeling her best, she remains mellow, affectionate, and incredibly attentive to people. You can tell all she wants is someone to love and care for. She walks beautifully on leash, seems fine with other dogs, and has the kind of calm, comforting presence that makes you instantly fall for her. Ava deserves soft beds, gentle hands, and a family who will pamper her through her golden years.
