Macchiato's Story

MACCHIATO<br/><br/>Male, neutered<br/><br/>~2-1/2 years old<br/><br/>Pit bull terrier<br/><br/>57 lbs.<br/><br/>Microchipped, up-to-date on core vaccines and takes monthly flea/tick/heartworm prevention ​<br/><br/>Good with kids and most dogs; untested with cats<br/><br/>Looking for a dog that’s always down to play ball? Macchiato has entered the chat.<br/><br/>Macchi is the kind of dog that makes life more fun. He’s equal parts athlete, best friend, cuddle bug, and household entertainment coordinator. His greatest love in life? His blue-and-orange Chuck-It squeaker ball. Not treats. Not dinner. The ball. This boy lives for fetch and runs like his only job is making sure the ball never touches the ground. A fenced yard where he can sprint to his heart’s content would be his dream come true.<br/><br/>But underneath all that energy is an incredibly sweet, emotionally intuitive dog who just wants to be close to his people. Macchiato is wonderful with kids and does especially well in active, busy households. He’s the kind of dog who seems to naturally match the energy around him — playful and goofy when it’s time for fun, but calm and gentle when someone needs a softer approach. He truly just wants to be included in everyday life. A few more things to love about him:<br/><br/>Loves fruit snacks like bananas, oranges, and apples.<br/><br/>Professional couch snuggler after playtime.<br/><br/>Enjoys playing and hanging out with other dogs.<br/><br/>Crate trained and potty trained.<br/><br/>Eats meals in his crate.<br/><br/>Gentle when taking treats.<br/><br/>Can be left home alone and will happily snooze on the couch.<br/><br/>Not a fan of baths, but politely tolerates paw wipe duty.<br/><br/>Macchiato is still working on his leash manners, but he’s eager to learn and is making progress every day.<br/><br/>His perfect home? A family that loves to laugh, play fetch until sunset, and then pile onto the couch together at the end of the day. Honestly, Macchiato isn’t just a dog — he’s the kind of companion that becomes part of every good memory.<br/><br/>Interested in adopting?
