Gertrude Pit Bull Terrier Mix Buffalo, NY

ID: 50115752

**Gertrude is currently living in a foster home. Please contact her foster family at amycappelli@gmail.com for more information**

Gertrude is a sweet, affectionate, playful 1.5 year old terrier mix that came to the shelter with two puppies that were not hers.

Gertude has been a lovely houseguest. She is the perfect mix of spunky, playful and cuddly. She is eager to please and bonds quickly with her people. She seems to go with the flow- she can be active and athletic or chill and snuggly depending on what the occasion calls for. She is a pleasant walker and would enjoy a family who brings her out on hiking adventures. Her favorite activities are tug and fetch. We recommend a home without small children as she is still very much a puppy and working on not grabbing toys while also learning to politely let them go.

She is currently living with both male and female dogs ( big and small). She coexists peacefully. But she is aloof when meeting new canine friends and takes time to warm
up. She has seen the resident cats through a gated doorway and has alerted but walked away on her own. However her intensity with squirrels and bunnies cautions to place her in a home without small animals.

Gertrude is house trained and she has been doing well in her crate ( with occasional bouts of whining and yodeling).

She's sponsored with funds for her new family to take training classes with her to help create a solid obedience foundation and a close bond.
