Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (Medium Coat)

Description:

Indiana is the cutest wiggly and a bashful bully breed on a mission to start fresh! If you’re looking for a happy pup with a big heart and an even bigger wiggle, Indiana might just be your guy. Despite coming from a rough and unstable home, this sweet boy has held onto his joyful spirit and is ready to share it with a family who will keep him safe and loved. Indiana is an absolute blast. He recently had a dog meet-and-greet with our resident social butterfly, Nala, and the two hit it off right away! Indiana showed us he’s a respectful, gentle playmate who doesn’t mind being pawed at and is excited to make friends. We think he’d love a canine buddy in his new home, and we’re more than happy to set up a meet-and-greet to make sure everyone’s a good match. This handsome boy has been friendly with every person he’s met and absolutely soaks up attention. While we’re not sure if he’s lived with kids before, we anticipate he’ll do well with proper introductions—he’s got the sweetest manners, even if he is still learning! Indiana has medium energy and appreciates having a fun outlet to be his best self. He’s a big fan of toys—especially stuffies (R.I.P. to those he’s already “loved” a little too hard). Enrichment toys like stuffed KONGs are also a huge hit! He appears to be potty trained but will need a little grace as he adjusts to his new home’s routine. On leash, Indiana walks beautifully and already knows “sit.” He’s even picked up “wait” very quickly—he’s smart, eager to learn, and loves pleasing his people. Indiana is such a good, good dog who was dealt an unfair paw in life, but he’s ready for his second chance and a forever family to call his own. If you think Indiana might be the perfect fit for your home, we would love to introduce you!
