Dexi - Pit Bull Terrier Dog for Adoption in Youngstown, Ohio

Dexi has been with us since May 10th when he came in as a stray. Like everyone else here, his owners did not come to take him home.
He is still a very young adult. He is happy and silly and quite resilient. This is no place for a dog but he really seems to be handling it ok.
Dexi needs a good loving home. He needs a family that he can be a part of.
