Nugget’s (A233191) story starts with him as pup in another shelter. He was taken in by a dog rescue that placed him with a family with kids and other dogs. He grew up there and, while he loves people and enjoys the company of those dogs, he wasn’t able to share well with the other dogs.
He is playful, learning to walk nicely on-leash, housetrained, and an all-around nice guy! Nugget is a great example of one of the most commonly seen canines here. Call them Pitties, or Pibbles, or pit bulls; we are celebrating these dogs during our Saint Pittie’s Day events including free seminars, a Pit Stop Pub Crawl, free portraits for Pitties and their People…and more! www.scanimalshelter.org/St.PittiesDay_2017
Nugget is 1 and a half-year-old, neutered/male, American pit bull, and such a handsome shade of red … much more than just a pretty face!
