Papi is a handsome, six year-old Pitbull mix who is cherished by staff and volunteers at the shelter. This love-bug craves affection and revels in bellyrubs and bum scratches. He will happily lay across your lap to accept pets and snuggles. Papi is looking for a home without other pets; he prefers to be your one-and-only. Once he's out of the chaotic shelter environment, he walks nicely on-leash and enjoys exploring the world around him. He will react when passing other dogs, and would do best with a confident handler who can redirect him and help him behave appropriately. Papi knows the "sit" command and would love a family that will continue teaching him new things. He's a smart boy and is very treat-motivated. If you're looking for a sweet, loyal buddy and would like to meet Papi, fill out an adoption interest form at https://www.hsnb.org/dog-adoption-application

Additional adoption info
We test animals for the following:
Dogs: Good with other dogs, possibly cats, food aggression, walks on leash, noting any other attributes we may know.
Cats: Good with other cats, litter box trained, noting any other attributes we may know.
We cannot test if any animal is good with children. We may know if an animal is possibly house trained, but cannot guarantee any animal in the shelter is house trained. We do not know if a dog is good with cats unless we are advised by a person surrendering the animal. We may have an idea of this depending on how the dog reacts to our community cats that live on the property.
Please visit our website for current fees, and to find out about adoption specials! (The website link is at the top and bottom of this page)
