About Daphne

Daphne is an energetic one-year-old who’s ready to charm everyone she meets. Weighing in at about fifty pounds, this affectionate Pit Bull Terrier thinks every person and dog is a potential best friend. Despite a challenging past, her loving spirit shines through. Daphne loves to snuggle and enjoys her toys and walks, but she needs more than just a short stroll; she craves daily vigorous exercise and ample space to run. She flourishes in a home with active families and could thrive with another playful dog. While Daphne is eager to learn and has already mastered the command ‘sit,’ she still needs guidance on her manners. She’s a bit exuberant, struggling with jumping and nipping when her humans come home after even a brief separation. Cautiously optimistic around new people, she’ll take her cues from you. Daphne has a high prey drive, so she shouldn’t be in a home with smaller pets. This sweet girl rarely barks and is more focused on getting love and attention. If you’re looking for a furry friend to bring joy into your life, Daphne is the one for you. Meet and greets are available with her foster family in the capital region upon request.
