About River
Meet River! This spirited six-and-a-half-year-old American Pitbull Terrier mix is eagerly awaiting connection in Amherst, MA. With her golden coat and soft white accents, she radiates warmth and affection. Weighing about 50 pounds, River is medium-sized and full of energy, always ready for the next fun-filled adventure with her favorite humans. She forms strong bonds, particularly with men, and delights in curling up under the blankets after an active day. River thrives on exercise—running, hiking, swimming, and long walks suit her perfectly. Tug-of-war is a game she especially enjoys, and she lights up during playtime. Having completed formal obedience training, she knows commands like sit, lay down, wait, and kennel up, showcasing her eagerness to please. She is house-trained and does well being left alone for short periods, enjoying car rides along the way. However, River needs to be the only pet in the household as she has shown strong reactivity towards other animals, particularly cats and small dogs. Her ideal home would be a pet-free environment where she can flourish. An experienced pet parent who can provide structure and clear boundaries will help her succeed. While River can be uneasy around loud noises and has limited experience with young children, she’s sweet and relaxed, enjoying sunbathing and lounging close to her humans. River is ready to embark on a new adventure filled with companionship and activity. Could she be the loyal friend you've been searching for? What are you waiting for? Apply today!
