My story

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

Meet Mrs. Potatohead
Breed: Pit Bull Mix
Age: ~2 years old
Weight: 33.2 lbs

Mrs. Potatohead is a compact bundle of joy with a big personality and an even bigger heart. Estimated to be about 2 years old, this playful pittie mix came to us as a stray on July 10, 2025—alongside a dog we believe is her brother.

At just over 33 pounds, she’s the perfect fun-sized companion—easy to handle but full of energy and spirit. Mrs. Potatohead loves to play and would thrive in a home where she gets plenty of exercise, attention, and maybe even a canine sibling to romp around with. So far, she seems to do well with other dogs and enjoys making new four-legged friends.

Whether she`s zooming around the yard or bouncing around with a favorite toy, this girl knows how to have a good time. Her upbeat attitude and lovable personality make her a joy to be around.

If you`re looking for a silly, spirited pup to brighten your days and keep you on your toes, Mrs. Potatohead is ready to be your new best friend!
