River PS Pit Bull Terrier Mix Kirkland, WA

Hi my name is River! I'm a pitty mix. I was living life on the streets of San Antonio when my foster mama and I crossed paths! It was a hot afternoon and I was laying in a driveway panting. My foster mama stopped to share some water with me and saw that I had hundreds of itchy, ouchy, ticks all over me! A kind family had been feeding me for about three months but just didn't have the resources to take me in. They had little kids who I loved, they fed me french fries and I gave them lots and lots of kisses before departing on my rescue journey! They gave my foster mama a leash and we started the big walk back to her house. Fortunately for us, we were able to get a ride! It was so hot and my body was so depleted I just wanted to lay in the shade.

There are lots of dogs in my two foster houses and I get along with all of them! I love to play with toys and want to play with the other dogs but I'm still working on my confidence. Snuggles and kisses are my FAVORITE though. I could spend the whole day snuggled up on the couch with my human and giving them lots of kisses!

I do well in a crate and I'm learning how to walk politely on a leash. I also do well in the car and lay down quietly in the back. I'm a really content and easygoing gal, I'm just happy to be around and follow my foster mama and foster auntie around their houses and snuggle up once they sit down.


Great with other dogs (loves to play with the other pitty in her foster house)
