Lenny NJ - Pit Bull Terrier Dog Available for Adoption in Rockaway, New Jersey

Lenny is a handsome 7-month-old pup who is already tipping the scales at 60-65 pounds and still has some growing to do! Adopted as a young puppy, Lenny sadly lost his home when his family could no longer provide the time and attention a young dog needs.

Despite the changes in his life, Lenny remains an incredibly sweet boy. He can be a little shy when first meeting new people but he's a total cuddle bug who loves affection and being close to his people.

Lenny gets along great with other dogs and would likely thrive in a home with a confident canine companion to help boost his confidence. He's even cat-friendly! Lenny previously lived with another dog who struggled with anxiety when their owners left the house for a long time, and some of those habits rubbed off on him, so he'll benefit from a little continued training and reassurance. With the right guidance, and especially with a confident dog friend, he is sure to flourish.

Lenny has lived with teenagers as young as 14 and has proven himself to be a loving companion. He's looking for a family that will give him the stability, patience, and love he deserves.

Lenny is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on his vaccines. All he needs now is a forever home to call his own.
