Ashton Pit Bull Terrier Mix Syracuse, NY

Our adorable Ashton is still looking for his forever home! Ashton is a nine year old gentleman who has had his adoption fee sponsored by a generous and kind individual. Sadly, seniors are often overlooked in favor of younger dogs and sometimes have to wait a long time before they find their loving family. Those who have adopted a senior dog know that every day will be filled with priceless love and gratitude.

Ashton knows that he's pretty much the perfect dog. He is very much a homebody and is low-energy, house-trained, and loves to be around humans. While he was in a foster home, he lived with two children (ages five and seven) and a hamster, who the kids sometimes put on his head! He didn't live with a cat, but he ignored the ones he saw in the neighborhood. Ashton is good with dogs but can be selective about who he really likes. He has good leash manners, knows his basic commands, and enjoys an ambling walk, but his most favorite activity is cuddling on the couch. Ashton does need work with riding in a car. With his gentle demeanor, we think he could do well in just about any home. Ashton has kidney disease, so he is on a special diet and gets a pill each day. He has responded well to treatment, so we believe he has many golden years ahead! If you are looking for a been there, done that, 'easy' kind of dog to add to your family, please consider this silver fox.
