About Peter "the pit" Parker

Peter "the Pit" Parker is living the dream in his foster home's big, sunny yard—he could spend hours sprawled in those golden rays. At the shelter, he was a favorite among staff, volunteers, and just about anyone who met him. These days, he's showing his fun side to his foster family, with walks where he jumps up on benches for a treat and a quick pose, always working the room. This is a relaxed, charming dog who knows his basics and is house trained. Peter's best match is an adult-only home looking for a mellow companion. He's not looking for canine roommates or a house full of kids, but he’s more than happy to hang out with the grownups and soak up attention.
