Hi. I’m Beef Wellington. Yes, like the fancy dish. No, I will not be served with potatoes — but I will sit very nicely for treats. I’m a 4-year-old, 60-pound, beefy pit bull with a big block head and an even bigger heart. Animal control picked me up in St. Paul, and I was headed for life in a cement kennel with a chorus of yappy puppies. But then my current foster family busted me out to join rescue life — and let me tell you, living in a real home instead of on cold concrete? 10/10. Highly recommend. Foster Mom calls me “the sweetest blockhead,” and honestly, she’s not wrong. I am what you might call a beefy Velcro ladies’ man. I love people. Did I mention I love people? Because I LOVE people. My favorite place in the entire world is wherever my humans are. Sitting with them. Laying on them. Leaning on them. Breathing the same air as them. If you move, I move. We are now a team. I like other dogs too! I’m a social guy. I just prefer they don’t try to eat my food. I mean... who likes sharing snacks? Let’s be reasonable. Cats? Absolutely not. In my professional opinion, they are chew toys with opinions. I’m house trained and potty trained — a true gentleman. When my foster family goes to a mysterious place called “work” (about 9 hours a day), I stay in my kennel. I may bark at first to express my deep emotional disappointment about being left behind, but eventually I sigh dramatically and take a nap. I do get a little bored in there sometimes and might look for something to chew — but give me a good bone and I’m golden. Right now I’m recovering from a broken toe, so I’m on kennel rest. Not my favorite thing, since my life goal is to be touching my people at all times. But I’m handling it like a champ. On walks, I can pull on the leash — I just get excited about life and want to see everything immediately. Car rides? Oh, I LOVE car rides. I show my appreciation by trying to be as physically close to you as possible the entire time. You’re welcome. I can be protective of my people — they’re my whole world, after all. My foster family thinks I’d be great with kids, especially dog-savvy ones. I’m a solid beefcake, so I might accidentally knock over someone very small just by loving them enthusiastically. Energy-wise, I’m moderately active — happy to go for walks and adventures — but I’m equally happy flopping on the floor for a nap with my humans. Truly, my favorite activity is simply being with you. Eat. Nap. Love my people. Repeat. So... are you my forever?
