Story
Spot, 12 weeks, male, Pitbull Terrier mix, currently weighs 18 pounds and expected to be a larger size when full grown. He is in a foster home in Houston, Texas.
Spot was abandoned with a couple other puppies. A woman found them and brought them home. Unfortunately, this is an all too common issue plaguing Texas. While we don't know how they came to be dumped, we do know they are happy and healthy puppies.
Spot is the thoughtful one of the duo—the curious little guy who likes to take a moment to observe before jumping into new adventures. Once he knows everything is okay, his playful, loving personality shines. Whether he's romping around the yard, chasing toys, or wrestling with his sister, Spot is always happy to join the fun.
He has a wonderful balance of energy. Spot loves to run, explore, and play with other dogs, but he's just as happy curling up for cuddles after a day of puppy adventures. His favorite toys are pumpkin ring toys, and at the end of the day, you'll often find him snuggled up with his sister, resting his head on hers as they drift off to sleep.
Spot has been wonderful with other dogs, playing respectfully and recognizing when it's time to take a break. He's also lived peacefully around cats, showing little interest beyond a quick glance. Although he hasn't met children yet, his gentle, affectionate nature suggests he would do well with respectful kids, with the supervision that all young puppies need.
This smart little guy is already showing how eager he is to learn. He's confidently mastered the stairs, rides calmly in the car, and sleeps quietly through the night in his puppy pen. Like any young puppy, he's still learning house training, leash walking, and basic manners, but he's making great progress and is ready for a family who will continue helping him grow into an amazing adult dog.
Spot would thrive in a home that can provide plenty of love, playtime, enrichment, and continued training. He would enjoy having another friendly dog to play with, but he also has all the qualities to be a wonderful only dog as long as he gets lots of attention and companionship.
Above all, Spot is a sweet, loyal, and affectionate puppy with a heart full of love. He's ready to find the family who will cherish him forever—and in return, he'll be the faithful best friend you've been waiting for.
Please note our process starts with an application. If we think you might be a good fit, we will reach out to coordinate a phone interview. This is followed by a video call with the foster home. Virtual home visit, personal and vet reference checks are required to complete the process. Transport is included in our adoption donation.
***Listed BREED and AGE - We are taking our best guess & recommendations from our veterinarian on age, breed and size when fully grown. We rarely know a dog's exact age nor are we able to tell the true or full breed mix of dogs as our information is limited most of the time. ***
