Foster mom loves this girl! She is sweet and a bit shy at first. LOVES kisses and belly rubs. She is playful, enjoys the back yard where she likes fetch and plays on her own. Valentina likes her walks and riding in the car. She is very friendly with everyone and has the best smile! This gorgeous pit mix came in as a stray and has quickly become a staff favorite. Valentina is a high energy player so a doggie sibling with high energy would be a good match.

Valentina is two years old and weighs 49 pounds.
