Nessie - Pit Bull Terrier Dog for Adoption in Patchogue, New York

Nessie is a stage 4 clinger that knows exactly what she wants. She loves to be with her favorite people and will try to jump into their arms when she's nervous. She is sassy but a total love bug.

Due to her past, Nessie can be nervous in new environments and can take time to warm up. Because of this she would do best with a household without young children.

She is doing great in her foster home with other dogs and loves to play but also loves to do her own thing. She is also doing well with housebreaking.
