Pope Pit Bull Terrier Mix Marion, OH

Pope is looking for a special type of adopter, someone patient who doesn't have visitors over often. Pope needs a home without young children, but has done well with the respectful teenagers he has met! We don't know what this young man endured in his past, but it has left him very leery of strangers. It has taken several long months of trust building and patience, but Pope has come around to our staff, and there's nothing more rewarding than seeing his smile light up. Pope is going to need that same level of commitment from an adopter. Meeting Pope will be a process, and it will involve more than one meet and greet. We will be utilizing a muzzle for his initial meet and greets, but don't let this deter you- he has grown to trust our staff and wants to protect us!

Pope is a smart dog, he responds well to stern commands. He seems to get along well with other dogs, loves cats, and is OBSESSED with kittens! He loves to play with stuffies and is ready to simply be a dog and enjoy his time in a home. Pope will make an excellent protector and is looking for someone who "gets" him and isn't afraid to take things slowly.More information?
