Pitbull for adoption, Fargo

meet Levi!

From time to time I take rescue dogs out running from the boarding kennels they live at. a lot of of these dogs are full of energy and anxious or ecstatic when we pass people, other dogs, birds or squirrels. When I run with a calm, mellow rescue pet dog that doesn’t pull on the leash, I notice.

A few weeks ago I met Levi. Not only is this pet dog adorable, but he has a calming energy I right away observed and was drawn to. The best recommendations I can offer when choosing a pet dog is to pick an animal that has less energy than your existing pets. The transition is so much much easier when you add as little anxiety and excitement as possible.

I normally avoid fostering dogs because the timing is not ideal at this point in my life. a lot of of my energy goes into my pet sitting and pet dog running service while squeezing in time to train my own pet dog and to write. Still, I have a strong (obsessive?) desire to help rescue dogs, so when a great pet dog like Levi crosses my path, I have to consider fostering him.

Levi is one of the sweetest, calmest dogs I’ve met. He is a tan and white American pit bull terrier up for adoption with 4 Luv of pet dog Rescue in Fargo, N.D. I will bring him to the adoption event from 1 to 3 p.m. Sunday at the West Fargo PetSmart if any individual would like to come meet him.

A pet dog that is able to stay kicked back is capable of lots of things, and I pledge that Levi has a purpose. There is something special about him, and whoever adopts him will genuinely be fortunate.

Most dogs will feel a bit uneasy when checking out a new home or a new environment. They will pant heavily, pace around, whimper, cry or show frantic interest in the other family pets and people.  This was not the case with Levi. He curled up in the back seat of my automobile on the way home and then casually followed me around. He slept often, never bothered the cats and backed off whenever my mutt Ace wanted anything.

More about Levi

As for the basic info everyone wants to know when adopting a pet dog – Levi is fully housebroken, exceptional around dogs and cats, walks well on a leash and sleeps through the night without making a sound. On top of all this, he knows a basic sit and stay command and makes a terrific running or walking partner. I even took Levi biking, and he picked it up instantly, never pulling or showing much interest in passing dogs. even better, Levi is not a high-energy pet dog and certainly wouldn’t need to go running or biking.

Levi needs someone who is able to help him adjust to being left home alone. I am not the ideal person to help him, which is why I am no longer fostering him. Levi stays in a kennel, but cries to get out. I live in a townhome and share walls with my neighbors. Levi will be able to learn that being alone is no big deal, but he needs someone who has the time and the ideal environment to work with him. I’ve written several articles on pet dog separation anxiety and pet dog kennel training and plan to write a lot more on these topics soon.

As for Levi, he is going to make someone the best dog. I can’t wait to see who adopts him and what is in store for this dog’s future.
