Raven is a gentle, lovely Pit mix who’s about 2 years old. She’s a sweet girl who loves people and attention, and she can be quite playful when she warms up (she’ll chase after a ball and even bring it back!). She pays attention nicely for food treats and is excellent with other dogs (she’d be best matched with a gentle, younger male canine companion). One of the volunteers that works with Raven says she loves to go walking on the trail and is wonderful on leash – she’d be a great hiking companion. She knows how to sit and will also lie down on command. Plus, she loves to snuggle. “This girl is the complete package!” the volunteer says. “Well-mannered, food-motivated and super sweet.” Raven will be a fabulous family pet.
Raven lives in kennel 10. For more information about Raven, contact doginfo@apsofdurham.org. To view her webpage, visit apsofdurham.org/raven.
