This dog is simply put, amazing. She is nearly everything I have been looking for in a "pit bull". She is FUN, extremely athletic. With some coxing she will go swimming down the creek, she LOVES to jump --We are in the process of building her a make shift "agility" set to practice on. She has a lot of toy drive. After a few tosses, she can catch a frisbee pretty darn good.
She gets along well with tolerant dogs. Would not reccomend for a home with cats unless you can keep them completely seperate. She does live with 4 cats with me, however the cats are kept in a different part of the house.
She loves people of all ages. She has been around kids as young as 3, and adults into their 70's.
She has the best trick I think I've seen in a dog yet. If you tell her "Go get a bath" she runs into the bathroom, leaps into the tub and sits down and waits for her bath. NO carrying down the hallway needed! She stands perfectly for her bath.
Grace was found running the streets of NY, and was taken to ACCT where she found herself on the urgent lists. She was pulled by a local rescue when I stepped up to foster--one look into her eyes, and she couldn't die. She is estimated to be 5 years old by the shelter, however a few weeks at home and a few bones later her teeth are in amazing shape. My vet put her between 2-4 years old.
She has an offer for FREE agility training by a trainer in the Ohio area for her adopters. Isn't anyone looking for an athletic, loving adult?
She is available for adoption through Luzurne County Pit Bull Owners. http://www.lcpoinc.org/

She loves her makeshift "a-frame" but she likes to run up it and sit on the top to watch the tractors working in the fields.
Prayers that she finds an awesome, loving home. I hope you get to keep in touch with her.
Gavins cancer is back yet again, he is going in for another surgery... I can't keep a full-time 2nd dog with his health issues... and I don't know how long I'll have with him either... I have been so torn-- I would keep her in a heartbeat if it wasn't for his health issues! I know her perfect family is out there somewhere...it's just a matter of them finding each other.
We get so much more interest in dogs with videos, even cell phone videos. I think it's bc people relate when seeing dogs doing things that people can imagine happening with that dog in their own house.
