Why I need a new home

Fostered, abandoned or found

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

We have a beautiful female Pitbull named Ruger that needs a home. We just don't have the time to give her the attention she needs. She does fine in a crate while we are at work, but she hates a collar and leash and refuses to walk on it (she will lay down). She is big and goofy and doesn't like to listen all the time. There is not a mean bone in her body and even though she's big, she thinks she is a lap dog and will curl up in your lap. She is a sweetie, but she needs a lot more training than we are able to give her at this time due to changing work schedules. She was a rescue but we haven't had her terribly long so she is not utd on her shots and she is not microchipped. She has a few places on her back end where she has chewed due to itchy skin (not terrible) and my female shepherd licks the same place which doesn't help any. We have been using anti itch/dry skin shampoo and conditioner that seems to help a little. Rehoming fee to ensure she goes to a good home.
