American Pit Bull Terrier (short coat) Dog

Rowan the Dog needs a home

Though he was surrendered to a shelter during Hurricane Irma in Florida, Rowan is an absolute love. He's a sweet and snuggly dog with phenomenal dog skills. He enjoys playing with other dogs at the Sanctuary, and even does well with dogs who are a little rude and rowdy. Rowan walks great on leash, and his former home reported that he was house trained. While in the shelter, he showed barrier reactivity and stranger danger. He is also said to have a bite history from the shelter, but no details were provided and he has been excellent with Dogtown caregivers and volunteers. Caregivers have Rowan meet people while he's on a leash, and he's done great. He can be jumpy and mouthy at times, but his caregivers ignore the behavior and reward him for keeping all four feet on the floor. The jumpiness has also lessened since he moved into a room with other dogs where he has an outlet for his energy. All-in-all, Rowan is a super sweet dog who wants to please people and is very willing to learn.
