About Pit Bull Terrier Dogs

Pit Bull Terriers are strong, athletic dogs with big, goofy smiles and even bigger hearts. Often misunderstood, these loving dogs are among the most loyal, people-oriented breeds you'll find. With proper socialization and training, they're gentle, affectionate companions who adore their families.

Adopting a Pit Bull means giving a deserving dog a second chance - they're one of the most common breeds in shelters. You'll be rewarded with a devoted, playful companion who lives to make you happy. Their resilience, intelligence, and capacity for love make them truly extraordinary dogs.

Local Climate & Pet Care

Winter

42°F to 63°F

Dec – Feb

Houston’s mild winters are comfortable for Labrador Retrievers. This is the best season for long walks at Memorial Park or along Buffalo Bayou. Labs can finally exercise hard without overheating.

Spring

55°F to 80°F

Mar – May

Labs shed their winter undercoat as Houston warms up. Brush frequently to manage shedding. Mosquitoes emerge early, so keep heartworm prevention current since Labs spend lots of time outdoors.

Summer

75°F to 95°F

Jun – Aug

Houston’s extreme heat and humidity are dangerous for active Labrador Retrievers who don’t self-regulate during exercise. Walk only before 7 AM or after 8 PM. Provide wading pools to help Labs cool off at home.
