Meet Tux! Tux is a handsome 5-year-old Pitbull with a big smile and an even bigger heart. This sweet boy was recently owner-surrendered simply because he has a lot of energy, but that just means he’s ready for a home that can keep up with his zest for life!
Tux has lived with two other dogs and would likely enjoy a canine friend who matches his play style. He’s affectionate, loving, and happiest when he’s with his people. Whether it’s going for a walk, playing in the yard, or just enjoying some quality cuddle time after a busy day, Tux is all in.
If you’re looking for a loyal, fun-loving companion with plenty of love to give, Tux is ready to be your best friend.
