About Winston

Winston is a 5-year-old mixed breed—his main lineage is Pit Bull Terrier—with a beautiful brown coat.

Winston feels safest in a quiet environment without small children and must be the only pet in the home. He’s housetrained, crate trained, and polite inside the house, which makes daily life with him predictable and low-stress once he’s settled. He’s already neutered and fully up to date on vaccinations. Winston is located in Orlando, FL. He does not get along with cats, so an environment with other animals isn’t a fit. If you’re looking for a loyal companion and can offer patience and consistency, Winston could thrive with you. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
