Meet Patches

Patches sounds like a 50-pound bundle of pure happiness! This sweet 2.5 year old Pit Bull/Terrier mix loves everyone she meets and is always ready for a game of fetch, tug, a walk, or—her personal favorite—a good cuddle. Patches is house trained, crate trained, and has excellent house manners. She knows sit, no, off, and come (when her excitement doesn't temporarily turn off her ears!), and she's eager to keep learning. She's a medium-energy girl who can happily play in the morning and then settle in for a serious couch-potato session. She loves other dogs and would thrive with a playful canine companion. She can bark when she sees a dog because she REALLY wants to play, but she's easily redirected and walks beautifully. She's done well with children and was friendly with visitors. She has also been cat tested and may be able to live with the right cat. And yes, Patches is convinced that 50 pounds is an entirely reasonable lap-dog size. ❤️She'd love a home with a fenced yard, another playful dog, and people ready to give her plenty of love, exercise, and continued training. Dogs are not placed on a first-come, first-serve basis. We strive to find the perfect home for each animal. Applications may take up to 48 hours to process. All CAWS animals are fixed, microchipped, and vaccinated. Her adoption fee is $200.
