Pit Bull Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption

Meet Smiley - The All-Terrain Adventure Buddy & Volunteer Favorite!!
We truly don't understand why Smiley is still waiting, because he is-quite literally-the "Full Package." He has the stunning, athletic build of a marathon runner, but a heart that is pure, unadulterated joy.

Smiley has been "field-tested" in the real world, and he passed with flying colors. He is an event superstar. He recently attended an off-site event and was an absolute gentleman. He was incredibly calm, patient, and sweet with visitors of all ages, including young kiddos! He also makes an excellent co-pilot. On his recent "Doggy Day Out," he hopped right into the car and rode calmly like a total pro. He has fantastic home manners and loves settling in for sofa snuggles after a fun day out or yard time. He is built for adventure and looks incredible on a trail. Our running volunteer often takes smiley on the trails and says he is a dream running buddy who is both graceful and smooth. She says he trots alongside you perfectly in tune. Volunteers also note that he is equally as talented at the "lean-and-love."

Highly Trainable: He already knows Sit, Down, and Shake, and he takes treats with a gentle touch. He is also an expert at catching treats mid-air making him the undisputed Mister MVP of snack time. The Name Says It All: Smiley doesn't just wag his tail; he lights up his whole face when he sees his friends. Smiley is the definition of "Strength and Sweetness." He's for the family that wants a dog who can keep up on Saturday hikes but is a gentle, calm presence in the living room every night. His smile may catch your eye, but it is truly his heart that is unforgettable. He can be dog selective so a home without other pups may be his best option. He is more than ready for the life he deserves.
