About Honey

What are you waiting for? Apply today! Meet honey, a beautiful small pit bull terrier with an irresistible honey brown brindle coat and soulful honey-yellow eyes. Honey's gentle and loving nature shines brightest with older children—she plays softly, never jumps or knocks kids over, and always checks in with a gentle sniff and playful lick before beginning to play. She adores fetch and tug of war, always returning toys to your hand to keep the fun going. Honey is wonderfully house trained and holds her bladder until you’re home to take her outside, so there have been no accidents in the home. She isn’t kennel trained by choice, since her previous home associated kennels with discomfort, but she’s respectful and relaxed when left loose in the house. On walks, honey is responsive to leash cues and listens attentively to commands like "heel," "stay," "wait," and "come." Her activity level is mild and balanced—she’s happy entertaining herself with her favorite toys, snuggling up on rainy days, or accompanying you on a walk. At night, she loves to stretch out on the bed, always respectful of your space and coming closer only with your permission. She’s extremely loyal, follows family members around to keep an eye on everyone, and is especially affectionate when she lays beside you, using her sweet presence to offer quiet comfort. Honey is remarkably quiet for her breed, rarely barking or growling and choosing to walk away if uncomfortable. She communicates volumes through expressive eye contact and perky ears, especially when deciding whether it’s time to go outside! She’d thrive best as the only dog in a home, with a family that honors her loyalty and gentle spirit, especially those with older, dog-experienced children. She deserves a loving home that will treasure her unique personality and soft heart. As a Gemini, honey is blessed with a playful, adaptable spirit—perfect for a loving family seeking an affectionate, devoted, and social companion. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
