Meet Ariel! At just 1 year old, Ariel is a big-hearted girl with an even bigger personality! This sweet Pit Bull mix came to us as a stray, so her past is a mystery, but one thing is crystal clear—Ariel absolutely loves people. Everyone she meets is a potential new best friend, and she's always ready to soak up as much attention and affection as possible.Ariel is still very much a puppy at heart. She has lots of energy, excitement, and enthusiasm for life, which means she'll thrive with a family committed to continuing her training and helping her learn good manners. In return, you'll get a fun-loving, loyal companion who is always ready for her next adventure.So far, Ariel's favorite things include long walks, peanut butter-filled treats, Kong toys, and curling up next to her favorite people on the couch after a day of fun. She's happiest when she's included in the action and spending time with those she loves.Because Ariel came to us as a stray, her history is largely unknown. Her compatibility with cats, dogs, and children has not yet been determined, so any introductions to resident pets or children should be done thoughtfully and at a pace that sets everyone up for success.If you're looking for a sweet, affectionate, playful dog who will keep you smiling, keep you active, and reward you with endless love, Ariel may be the perfect addition to your family. Come meet this happy girl and see if she's the missing piece you've been looking for! 61 lbs If you are interested in meeting Ariel, please visit the shelter during open adoption hours: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday: 10 AM–12:30 PM & 2 PM–4 PM Thursday: 10 AM–12:30 PM & 2 PM–6:30 PM Saturday: 9 AM–1 PM If you do not own your home, please bring written consent from the property owner allowing a dog on the property.
