My story

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

Griselda is a 2-year-old Pocket Pit Bull who has been waiting her whole life for a family to call her own. She and her two siblings were abandoned at a vet’s office in Tijuana when they were just a few months old. A small pit bull rescue took them in and cared for them, but they were never adopted. Now, with the rescue closing, Griselda urgently needs a safe and loving home.

She is a beautiful gray dog with a white chest and belly, weighing only 35 pounds. As a Pocket Pit Bull, she is much smaller than other pit bull-type dogs, which makes her easier to manage while still carrying all the loyal, affectionate traits the breed is known for. Pocket Bullies are also very popular as companion dogs because of their friendly nature and compact size, and Griselda is no exception.

Griselda has a big personality and a lot of energy. She loves to jump, run, and play, and she’s especially happy when she has toys to keep her busy. She gets along well with dogs, children, and adults, and she is always excited to be around people. She does like to explore and can be an escape artist, so she’ll need a secure yard and plenty of activity to keep her engaged.

She is spayed, vaccinated, and ready for adoption. Since she has lived outdoors her entire life, she will need house training and obedience training, but she is eager to learn and bond with her person.

Griselda is fun, affectionate, and full of energy. She’s ready to bring love, joy, and adventure to a family who will finally give her the home she has been waiting for.

More about this rescue

My name is Michelle Johnson. I have been doing animal rescue (and disaster work with animals) for over 20 years. I have always loved animals, and when growing up I always had a dog. I know what joy it adds to your life to have a pet. I have a firm belief in God and that he gives each of us a special "Gift". I beleive mine is to be responsible for the pets, whose owners are not. I take this responsibility, very seriously. I am grateful to be able to help these dogs. and will continue to do so for as long as I can!! If there is Dog in Need, I will always do my best to help it.
