Spike's Story
2.5 years old 75 lb Pit Bull Mix<br/><br/>Spike is a big-hearted boy with an equally big personality - and he's looking for someone experienced who can help him continue the progress he's already making. He's currently one of our behavior-focus dogs, and while he absolutely adores the people he knows well, meeting new people can feel overwhelming for him. Because of this, he needs a thoughtful, confident adopter who understands canine body language and is willing to continue his training plan.<br/><br/>Spike has been professionally evaluated at Zoom Room and works weekly with Alexa from Pumpkin Paws Dog Training. Both trainers see tremendous potential in him. He's very food-motivated, has been excelling with his muzzle-training, and is steadily learning to trust and warm up to more people. With structure, patience, and consistency, Spike truly shines.<br/><br/>Spike will do best in a child-free home as the only pet, where his person can give him calm guidance and help him feel safe. He thrives with routine and responds beautifully to clear expectations.<br/><br/>For those he trusts, Spike is the sweetest, goofiest, most affectionate companion - the kind of dog who makes you laugh every single day. Despite his challenges, he's a staff favorite at the rescue, and whoever adopts him will gain an incredibly loyal, loving friend.
