About Nani

Nani is a 7–8 year old mixed breed (Pit Bull Terrier/American Staffordshire Terrier) living in Thousand Oaks, CA. She’s everything you want in a classic, mellow companion: quiet, low maintenance, and happiest when she's with her people. Nani thrives around children and has a gentle, affectionate bond with kids—she even became best friends with a foster family’s little boy, happily playing and cuddling together. She doesn’t need long walks or constant excitement—just a home where she can relax, nap, and join in whatever you’re doing. At greeting time, she’ll show off her happy dance and loves to shower her people with kisses. Scratches and snuggles are her favorite activities. Nani is fine around people but can be reactive to other dogs while out on leash; she redirects easily, but would much rather be the only dog at home. She lights up at the beach, especially with children. If you’re looking for an easygoing, child-friendly dog who mostly wants company and a soft spot to curl up, Nani is the one.
