You will never find a cuter and friendlier puppy. It wants to be friends with all people and pets, whether dogs or cats. We think it may be roughly 6 months old. The vet thinks it might be a mix between a Boston Terrier and a pit bull.

Story
Sosa is an almost 5 year old mixed breed. She is 35 pounds, spayed, and up to date on all of her shots. I've had her since she was a puppy but im having to move by myself for the first time and wont have the help caring for her that ive had up to this point. I have a fairly busy work schedule that keeps me away from home for 10 plus hours a day and I'd like her to be in a loving home, with a yard, where she can get the care and attention she deserves. She is a very sweet dog. Playful, energetic and affectionate. She does however have some separation anxiety that I've been working to quell with meds and vet guidance. Whoever she goes to needs to be someone that is going to love her for the rest of her life and is willing to put in the work to keep her. She will come with her kennel, dog bed, etc if chosen to adopt her as well.
