K-9 New Life

Hi, I'm Apple and I'm a happy 45 pound female pit bull mix full of all the energy and love you could ever imagine having in your home. Not sure how I got to be so happy. K-9 New Life found me at Norfolk Animal Care Center abandoned, lonely, and afraid. It looks like I had a litter of puppies but no one knows. I was undernourished and full of fleas - K9 New Life cleaned me up - helped me get through a terrible upper respiratory infection and placed me in a home with 3 dogs and 3 cats and a swimming pool full of frogs for me to hunt. I get along well with the family dogs, even if two of them are 15 years old and really cranky. The cats play with me more than they do!

I am house trained, crate trained and trained to snuggle big time on sofas and beds. I love car rides and walks but need a strong hand when I see rabbits or ducks - I really want to chase those rabbits and get those ducks in the air.

I like to let my foster parents know when someone is at the door and I'm trying to learn how to not jump and lick on company. I think I'm pretty trainable.

I really like my chew toys and pretty much keep to my own stuff, but if left too long without anything to do in the yard, I will pick up a hose or sprinkler ;-)

If you're looking for a happy loving addition to your family, please come up and meet me at one of the scheduled PetSmart shows or complete an online application.
