About Johnny

Meet Johnny, an 11-year-old pit/lab mix who's ready to find his forever home. This sweet boy sports charming speckled ears and a gentle demeanor. Johnny is looking for a single adopter who can be his one true companion. He enjoys hanging out, going for walks, watching TV, and taking car rides. Fetch is a favorite game, and he listens well to basic commands. Johnny thrives on affection and love, but he prefers to bond with one person and may not do well in a multi-person household. He might get bored if left alone for too long, so a yard isn’t a place for him to be left unattended. Though he’s agile and full of life, he does not get along with other dogs, especially males, making him best suited as an only pet. Currently located in Ventura, CA, Johnny can be transported to Washington, so please consider fostering or adopting this loyal companion. Your new adventure awaits with Johnny!
