Sumatra is a Bull Terrier/Pit Bull mix. Her personality is all Bull Terrier. When she sees a toy, she lights up like a puppy. When you walk into the room, she greets you with a toy in her mouth. Need a dog you can exercise in your own yard? Sumatra fits the bill. But she also loves to go for walks and car rides. She just wants to be with you whatever you’re doing. She will ride in a crate or on the seat with you. The shelter says she’s seven, but her behavior and energy level seem more like a two-year-old.
When she’s not in play mode, however, she’s all snugglebug. She calms right down and wants to be your best couch buddy or curl up at your feet. She would love to go to work with you. She loves attention and will give all the kisses you allow. With her sleek, shiny coat, she’s a real beauty. She has a scar on her face from a long ago injury, but her inner beauty totally makes up for it. She’s housebroken and good alone in the house. Her behavior with cats is unknown. She seems comfortable with small dogs, but nervous with larger dogs she doesn’t know. Her leash manners need some work. If you allow it, she will snuggle up on the bed too. Someone will be very lucky to adopt our lovely Sumatra.
