Birdie is a 4-year-old, 70-pound Pit Bull Terrier mix who’s more than ready for her next big leap. She’s sharp, eager to please, and brings a playful spark to any room. Birdie already knows several commands—sit, shake, speak, and lay down—and she’s both house and crate trained. However, she has a strong drive toward cats and an ongoing grudge against squirrels, which means a home without small animals is a must. She’s searching for a family that sees her potential and is willing to commit to ongoing training. A secure, fenced yard is a requirement for Birdie; she needs space to play and explore safely. Her adoption fee covers spay, vaccinations, a wellness exam, heartworm test, and microchip. Out-of-state adoptions are considered with the right checks, but adopters must handle transport both ways if things don’t work out. Birdie is ready to spread her wings in Springfield, MO—she just needs someone to take the leap with her. Click apply to start the adoption process.
