About Andre

Andre is a handsome gray Pit Bull mix who is just 11 months old and searching for a loving forever home. This sweet young boy came to us underweight and malnourished, but thanks to proper care, nutritious meals, and kindness, he has been steadily gaining weight and learning that life can be good. Despite his rough start, Andre displays resilience and has a lot of potential. He can be a little nervous when meeting new people, particularly men, and needs time to adjust in unfamiliar situations. Giving him the space to approach at his own pace will help him build trust. Once he feels secure, his sweet personality shines, and he enjoys the company of those he knows. Andre previously lived with other dogs and may do well with some canine companions. Proper introductions are key to ensuring a smooth match, especially since he can be a bit protective of his meals due to past food insecurity. With time, he’s learning that food is no longer a concern. As a young, active dog, Andre thrives in a home that can provide regular exercise, mental stimulation, and opportunities to bond with his family. He seeks patient adopters who will help him continue building confidence and show him the joys of a safe and happy life together. Every day is a new chance for Andre, and he can't wait to begin his next chapter with you. Click apply to start the adoption process.
