****I am set to be euthanized 12/23 at shelter! ADOPTER needed ASAP!! Read entire post.***** Hi, I'm Griffin (Dog compatibility unknown, slow intro required). I'm set to be euthanized 12/23, 8 am. Why am I E-listed? I have been living in a small concrete kennel (where I can barely turn around in) for 4 months. I am starting to lose my mind and it is inhumane to keep me here in this condition anymore and I am struggling daily in the shelter now. Who can save my life? I do not want to die! I'm a 3-year-old, neutered, brown and white American Pit Bull Terrier (57 lbs.). I came into the shelter as a stray. Volunteers say I am friendly, playful, energetic, and love attention. I also love being petted and will 'sit' for treats and take them gently. I have fun with toys and can entertain myself when they are around. I pull on a leash but walk well when a 'modified harness' is used. Because I am very frustrated from being confined, I get overly excited when I get out and will jump up, grab at leashes, and get mouthy at times. That said, treats or toys can distract me and help me settle. Not sure how I am with other dogs since there have been no dog-to-dog evaluations for 8 months here at shelter. I need to be out of here ASAP! I need a home that will provide routine and structure and one where I can decompress and relax. Children in the home must be 5+. I hope someone steps up for me! I don't want to be put down! Can you save my life? Love, Griffin
