Tux Pit Bull Terrier Mix Yakima, WA

Meet Tux, a one year old Pit mix weighing in at 94 pounds.

Tux is a BIG boy reminding us of an XL Bully which have become popular over the years. He was found as a stray and the finders held onto him for a while because there was no room to take him. They describe him as being friendly, good with kids, playful and affectionate. He was indoor with them with access to outside and did very well. He was around men, women, dogs and cats while with them and did well with them all. They would have loved to keep him but were elderly and he was just a bit too active for them. He is still unsure about the leash, but we are sure with a little time he will warm up to it once he realized the leash means he gets to go for walks. This happy goober has the best smile and is treat motivated, gladly sitting for them

A Picture says 1000 words...right? While an animal's picture draws interest, the reality is that as a potential adopter most people would like as much information as possible about a pet. The Yakima Humane Society is an open admission shelter. What does this mean? Over 90% of the pets at the adoption center arrive as strays, no history of behavior or medical care is known. Adding a pet to your family is a big responsibility. Please research carefully and remember that adoption is life saving. Before you go searching for free puppies or puppies for sale, check your local Shelters for available dogs and puppies that have been vetted and are ready to go home. Adopt Don't Shop.
