Scarlett

American Pit Bull Terrier Rottweiler

Female, Adult
Noblesville, IN
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Needs experienced adopter, House-trained,
Story
Scarlett is mixed breed red pitbull (mother) & German rottweiler (father). She will be 6 years old August 2024. She is house trained & follows commands: sit, lay, roll over, speak, up (jump), & can even balance treats on her snout until she's given the command that she can have it. She knows how to stay in place when preparing her food & doesn't eat until given the okay. She does not tear up any furniture nor any clothing items including shoes, with respect that leaving such items around only gives that possibility - I always make sure to keep things put up. She hasn't had much interaction with other dogs nor have I taken her to any loose dog parks, mainly due to the negative stigma her breeds have. Scarlett has been around other dogs a handful of times but I always make sure to keep her leashed & close by so she doesn't get any bad ideas. She grew up entirely in 1-bedroom apt & I do my best to take her on frequent walks/runs. She's a protector & companion that needs a loving home.

Despite his troubles, he's a gem of a dog with a heart full of longing for a place to call home. So far, his journey has been marred by hardship, leaving him with a lingering fear of men that casts a shadow over his gentle soul. He's ready to find a loving family who will give him the patience and care he deserves.According to his previous owner, Zeus has lived with both cats and dogs. He reportedly gets along well with his furry friends, although he might play a bit roughly with cats. With a little supervision and guidance, he has the potential to become a great playmate. Zeus appears to thrive with a consistent routine, and with your guidance, he should settle into perfect bathroom habits. He's eager to learn and impress you with his good manners. Though he may bark at first, it's merely a shield against the uncertainties of his past. Once you earn his trust, you'll discover a playful and loving pup buried beneath the fear and doubt. Zeus has shown remarkable progress with his training, a testament to his willingness to learn and adapt. Zeus would do best in a home without young children, where he can enjoy a calm and stable environment. This allows him to shine and show off his best self.Despite his rough start, Zeus still holds onto hope, dreaming of a forever home where he can finally belong.
