Pit Bull Terrier - Chris - Large - Adult - Male - Dog
Chris is looking for a home that can help him learn the ways of the world. He is a very friendly dog, but he hasn't had a lot of leadership or consistency to this point. Perhaps you could be the one to help him become the great family dog we think we can be? Chris is very playful, but he needs some work shoring up his basic commands. We're also working on improving his leash manners. He has a good amount of energy, so we want to make sure he's ready to take plenty of daily walks with his new family! Chris doesn't appear to have had a lot of socialization with other dogs. Initially he was very stiff and confused when we introduced him into playgroups. But he's quickly become an eager playmate, though he's still learning to read signals from other dogs. Carefully managed ongoing socialization would benefit Chris. In addition to all of Chris' wonderful natural qualities, he has been working hard to be a dog you can take anywhere with pride. Chris has been working on his Canine Good Citizen skills with APA staff and volunteers. To pass the American Kennel Club's CGC test (and be considered CGC-ready by APA), a dog must demonstrate obedience and general reliability in real world situations. An APA CGC-ready dog knows sit and down, walks nicely on leash, will sit calmly when you are approached by strangers or another dog, won't approach people or dogs without permission, stays in sit or down until told 'free,' and comes when called. This training is very connected to your dog's relationship with you, so regardless of where Chris is in this training program at the time of adoption, APA will work with you to help you establish this relationship and keep the training going. While we think Chris is a great dog with a lot of potential, an adopter who has had prior dog experience is recommended to help him smooth out his rough edges. Of course, don't forget that APA's behavioral team will be available to help you transition him into your home!
