Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Pablo is a cute one-year old male American Staffordshire Terrier/Pit Bull Terrier who was brought to the HSOV on February 21, 2025 after he was found on the 400 block of Franklin Street in Marietta Ohio. Pablo was not wearing a collar, and he was not microchipped.
This handsome guy has a snow white short smooth coat with a brown patch on his lower back, a long brown/white tail, and an adorable chubby face with beautiful mesmerizing eyes, a liver-colored nose, and large super-sized ears which he holds semi-erect when he chooses to do so.
Pablo has a sweet disposition and a friendly, outgoing personality. He loves attention from everyone who has meet him.
Pablo weighs 47 lbs.
In compliance with the Ohio Revised Code, Pablo was held for three days so that his family would have an opportunity to reclaim him with proof of ownership. Surprisingly nobody called or came looking for this little man.
Pablo was neutered on March 4, 2025 and was also given rabies vaccine.
Pablo went home with a foster family on March 8, 2025, and he became available for adoption on June 12, 2025.
Updated information about Pablo from his foster family:
"Pablo needs to go to a home without a male dog preferably or at least one who isn’t already THE BOSS for sure. Females he’s perfect with, and he is the BEST BOY!! He is a handful yes, but he’s just a puppy still and he does listen and I’ve been working with him. He has some separation anxiety from his previous “situation”. Pablo is house trained and is crate trained .. but definitely sleeps with me every night. THE ONLY reason I’m choosing to adopt him out is because of the fact he and Chevy aren’t ever gonna be homeboys. He’s the biggest sweetheart of all time. Just needs to be THE MAN of the house to speak."
Pablo came back to HSOV on July 30, 2025 after an altercation with another male dog in the household, and his foster family made the decision that Pablo would be more suited for a home without any male dogs or have contact with them. It was touching to see Pablo quickly jump up on the couch in the shelter lobby when he returned and to snuggle up with HSOV Executive Director Amy Rogers. Pablo will be adjusting to shelter life and will soon be looking for the perfect home.
Pablo went home with a foster family on September 15, 2025.
