Ember - Shepherd and Pit Bull Terrier Dog for Adoption in Kennewick, Washington

Don't let my big, blocky head intimidate you because I'm still just a baby at heart! I need a home with structure, love, and people dedicated to training and socializing me so that I can be a true breed advocate. My big dream is to be the pup that shows other people that bully breeds aren't scary! I may be large but I'm just a baby inside. While people knowledgeable with my breed is always a plus, the most important thing is that my future family gives me proper time, patience, and resources to be a healthy, happy, and confident adult. Positivity based reinforcement means that we can create a trusting bond built on respect. I'm not saying you should let me misbehave, but make sure I know you'll always love me no matter what! I will thrive with structure. Once I know what to expect you'll see me start to settle into my new forever and then my personality can truly shine!
