Terrier and Pit Bull Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption in Homestead, Florida

Lingo-
Desperate for love!! This sweet girl magically appeared in a community where noone had seen her before. She slept in the community park and out of hundreds of people in the community driving by her every single day, not one person took her in or tried to help her. We think she was left there when her owner's had to move out. But by the looks of her, they did her a favor because they clearly were not caring for her anyways. Skinny with scars on her face and a chunk of her tongue missing, there is no telling how this poor girl was living.
What we do know is she is the sweetest most gentle girl with all humans (not kid tested) and practically begs for affection. She will lay her head in your lap and quietly look at you asking for attention. She will turn away from food just to get pets. She is quiet and fully potty trained. She loves toys and likes to tear them up and really really likes to get the zoomies and run full speed through the yard.
Lingo CANNOT be with any other dogs or smaller prey animals. Interestingly enough though, she has no reaction to the mini pig in her foster home. Lingo needs a special person to show her what love is and give her the life that every dog deserves.
If you have a fenced yard, a home with no other pets, and are looking for a quiet, sweet, snuggle bug best friend who will look at you like you are her whole world, then please, please consider meeting Lingo!
A meet and greet commits you to nothing and you have nothing to lose! Ask about our foster to adopt option also!!
