Edamame

Edamame is an 8-month-old, 40-pound Pit Bull Terrier mix with a bright mind, an athletic spirit, and endless potential. Quick learner: Mastered “sit” and “paw” in just four days. She’s eager to learn, walks nicely on leash, and would likely excel in activities like agility, advanced obedience, scent work, or other dog sports that challenge both her mind and body. Social butterfly: She greets everyone with a friendly attitude, enjoys spending time with other dogs, and has done wonderfully with her foster sibling. Active and engaged: Thrives and is happiest when she’s with people who enjoy interactive play, learning new skills, and sharing adventures together. Growing into her best self: Making excellent progress with house training and is working on building confidence with being left alone, especially at bedtime. Edamame would thrive with appropriately matched dogs or as a solo dog with dog friends outside the home.
