About Willow Courtesy Listing

Meet Willow, a sweet and timid 8-month-old Pit Bull mix looking for a loving family. She was surrendered to Moonbrook Veterinary Hospital in Jamestown and is learning to come out of her shell with a little patience and gentle interactions. Although not yet spayed, she will be before adoption, and it's essential that her new family understands her sensitive nature. Willow needs a calm and stable environment where she can feel secure and grow in confidence. We're looking for a family that’s willing to invest time and effort into her training and socialization. With love and consistency, Willow has the potential to flourish. A home without young children would be ideal, given her shy disposition. She hasn't been around other animals yet, so that’s something her new family will need to explore. If you feel you can provide the environment she needs, please reach out. Let’s help this beautiful girl find her forever home. Click apply to start the adoption process!
