If you’re looking for an athletic, playful dog who loves being around people and other dogs, Hopper is worth your attention. This young, medium-sized, short-coated pit bull mix has the social streak you’d expect from a dog who never likes to be alone; the kennel stresses him out and you can tell he misses real companionship. It’s actually his second stay, so a stable home would be a game-changer for him. Hopper stands out in the play yard—his rowdy energy is balanced with a surprising ability to tune it down for smaller dogs, even rolling on his back to let others set the pace. He genuinely seems to love the company of other playful dogs. He doesn’t do well with cats, so keep your household dog-only. Hopper keeps his kennel clean, likely meaning he’s house trained, and he already knows how to sit. When people or dogs aren’t around, he self-soothes with toys, showing adaptability. At roughly a year old and 58 lbs, he’s goofy, eager, and happiest with a person or dog to entertain him. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
