Axel is a lively 2-year-old pit bull terrier mix who found his way into the rescue after roaming a neighborhood for a couple of weeks. Currently weighing around 80 lbs., he could use some extra love and care to gain a bit more weight. This handsome boy adores people, especially when treats are involved, and he shows a friendly demeanor towards other dogs after proper introductions. Axel is in search of an active family with a fenced yard where he can run and play to his heart’s content. Though he's testing positive for heartworm, don't let that deter you. With your support, he'll soon be on the road to recovery and full health. Axel is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations, making him a solid companion ready for adoption. Give him the loving home he deserves. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
