About Margot

Margot is a 5-year-old Pit Bull Terrier weighing 46 pounds. During her recent walk around the pond, she comfortably took a break at a bench and made it clear she wanted some back scratches. Initially hesitant with new people, Margot showed her friendly side by returning when called and allowing a staff member to leash her. Once settled, she sought affection on her own terms. This sweet girl can feel intimidated when she’s cornered, so she will thrive in a calm and understanding home. It’s essential to let her gain confidence at her own pace. While she paid little attention to other dogs on her walk, her experiences with cats and children are still a mystery. A quiet walk and some time spent together will help develop a bond with her.
