Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed
Description:
Pickles would relish someone teaching him all the things good dogs learn! He seems to be a quick learner and would be a fun partner in dog classes. Pickles looooves to play with other dogs and the patient ones are coaching him on manners. He was a stray with a broken front leg (older break) and over-compensated on his other one - but both are healed. He still has a lot of bouncing puppy energy, doesn't seem to be mouthy unless you count him barking when he wants something (attention?). But if you don't give in to him - you can almost see him thinking and stop barking, "Oh, I need to stop!" Pickles takes his treats with a soft gentle mouth, walks along with you pretty well on a leash and harness. (That puppy energy makes him want to chew his leash though - it is just irresistible hanging in front of his face!) Pickles knows if he sits - he gets a treat. What else...oh he has the drive to learn! Pickles enjoys tummy rubs and neck scratches as rewards. You got some cheese - You have a friend in Pickles!
