This gorgeous girl is looking for a home. Serena is a 2-3 year old, medium sized, 59 pound, white, Terrier, Pitbull Mix. Poor girl was found as a stray but is now safe at the shelter. Its unknown how Serena got the cuts and scars on her face but she does not let that bother her because she has the famous pitty smile. This girl will be your right hand man, or um girl! She likes to follow her human friends around. She does whine alot but once you pet her and let her see that you love her, she calms down. Serena does not mind being handled in fact it seemed she actually likes being picked up. If you decide to sit down and relax for a few, Serena will be right next to you. She has the greatest personality! She might be able to live with dogs. Please bring in your whole family including dogs to meet Serena and see how well everyone gets along. Hurry in before its too late. Adopt Serena!
