About Tommy

Tommy is a charming 3-year-old Pit Bull Terrier recently found as a lost pup. This sweet boy is looking for a family to call his own. He shows a playful spirit, is obedient, and even sits on command. Tommy walks beautifully on the leash and is up to date on vaccinations. He will be neutered and microchipped upon adoption. While he's unfortunately tested positive for heartworms, it's a condition that's easily treatable.
