In the shelter’s words

**If you are interested in being considered for this dog, please be sure to complete an application directly on our website - not through a 3rd party service.** Meet Dock! Born 5/19, Dock is a handsome Pit Bull mix with the cutest set of ears! His mom is a 40-lb pocket pit bull and based on his current size, we expect Dock to grow into a medium-sized adult. Dock is cautiously curious and likes to take a minute to check out new things before jumping in. Once he’s comfortable, his sweet and playful personality shines! He loves to play, cuddle, and be close to his people. He’s also one smart little guy! Dock already knows sit, down, and high five and is currently working on wait. He does great in his crate and is making progress with potty training. Dock is looking for a family who will continue his training, help build his confidence, and give him all the love, playtime, and cuddles he deserves. Dock's adoption fee is $400. This includes age appropriate vaccines, completed wellness visit, microchip and neuter at one of our contracted vets at 6 months of age. *HWMAR presents the information in these bios based on our foster observations and any information presented to us regarding prior living conditions, breed specifications.
