About Dozer

Meet Dozer, the distinguished gentleman you've been waiting for. At around 7 to 9 years old, this charming Pit Bull Terrier mix has a heart that defies the odds of his past. Despite spending too long in a shelter and facing disappointments, Dozer greets each day with hope, looking for someone who will finally choose him. Dozer finds happiness in the simple things—strolling through the neighborhood, sharing easy hikes, curling up on the couch, and soaking up all the scratches and belly rubs he can get. He doesn’t need extravagant adventures; all he wants is love, a comfy spot to nap, and reassurance that he’s finally home. Due to his high prey drive, Dozer must be the only pet in a home without small animals. It’s his one significant request. Senior dogs like Dozer show a different type of love; they appreciate every moment and every cuddle. He has so much affection to share, just waiting for the right person to give him a chance. If you're ready for a loyal friend who will gladly trade kisses for couch time, look no further. Could you be the happy ending this sweet old man has been waiting for? Adoption Fee: $150.
