Sassy, pit bull terrier
Sassy is an adorable female pit bull terrier puppy in the care of Rebel Dogs Detroit. Sassy is vaccinated. She is a special needs pet, so please inquire about her specific care requirements. Sassy's current caretakers say: Apply to adopt Sassy today at Petfinder.Sassy came to Rebel Dogs as a stray with a lacking paw. The wound has now healed, and she can find her forever home. Are you ready to learn who is the boss? Sassy takes on big and small dogs in play and has the personality of a queen. She currently lives in foster care and puts weight on her stump. This may or may not change; there is a chance that she will need further amputation. (The factors are weight, abrasion and the way she uses it once she is bigger.) Because that decision can't be made now, we ask that Sassy's adopters understand and commit to future care (hopefully, little to none).
