Pit Bull Terrier - Large - Adult - Male - Dog - Chico
Description
AVAILABLE 08-22-09 Chico is another dog who had to come to the Shelter because his owner was moving. Chico is 3 years old. What a massive beautiful dog - you have to come in and see him to appreciate Chico. He is well proportioned, has an upright wagging tail, pleasant face and an inquisitive look. Chico likes to be on the alert to watch his surroundings and would probably make a good watch dog. He tested negative for heat worms and is up to date on shots. According to his former family, Chico loves kids and other dogs, but is not too keen on cats. Chico is not one to give his attention away easily but would bond well with his own family. >SPCA of NENC will adopt to approved applicants either North Carolina residents or non-residents.
