Clark Pit Bull Terrier Bellingham, WA

Hi, my name is Clark! I'm a PURPLE pawprint, which means I will fit well into a home that meets some specific criteria. Here is what would work best for me in my new home:
-Personality: Joyful, a bit nervous with new things, sweet
-Can Live with Kids: Unknown history with kids. Since Clark is a big guy who can be a bit jumpy we are recommending kids aged 14 years and up.
-Can Live with Cats: Unknown history so we would recommend a very slow and supervised introduction process if introducing any feline friends!
-Can Live with Dogs: Not recommended at this time - Clark needs a home that is focused solely on him gaining confidence and trust before introducing him to other dogs.
-Can do Apartment Living: Not recommended due to size and energy levels but may be okay if he gets plenty of physical and mental stimulation.
-Potty Trained: Seems to be!
-Bite History: No
-Positive Reward Based Obedience Classes Required: Yes, one private lesson is required.
-Energy Level: High
-Needs Medical Procedure Before Going Home: Yes a neuter/MC

-Additional Information: Clark was found running around as a stray. When he was found he was limping quite badly and had some injuries to his legs. After some vet care and TLC Clark is ready to find his forever home! He would do best in a home that is able to take new things slow as he can get nervous in new situations. Clark could use some work on basic manners such as jumpiness and leash skills, but he is eager to learn and enjoys working for treats. He is an active and affectionate guy who would enjoy going on many adventures with his new family.
