Cheerio - Pit Bull Terrier Dog for Adoption in Reisterstown, Maryland

Chip, Chip, Cheerio! Meet the happiest little lad you'll ever have the pleasure of knowing!

At just 1 year old, Cheerio is the perfect mix of playful puppy energy and sweet cuddle buddy. His fur is so soft it feels like velvet, and once you pet him, you'll find yourself coming back for "just one more" scratch... and then another... and another.

Cheerio is a gentle, affectionate guy who believes everyone deserves a friend—and maybe a tennis ball. Speaking of which, toss him his favorite ball, and he'll happily show off his fetching skills like it's the Puppy Olympics. When playtime is over, he's more than content to snuggle up beside you and soak up all the love. He also knows "paw" and the staff is slowing figuring out what other cues this smart 'cheerio' knows! He has played with a few dogs in playgroup so he may be open to a home with another canine companion with the proper introduction.

If you're looking for a loyal sidekick with a heart as soft as his velvet coat, Cheerio is ready to make every day a little brighter, a little funnier, and a whole lot more lovable.

Come meet Cheerio—you'll be saying "Chip, Chip, Cheerio!" every time he greets you with that adorable face!
