Medium (25 – 60 lbs) Learn MoreHippo is a differently-abled, small in size, extremely sweet, American Pit Bull mix who loves everyone and everything; a wiggling ball of love! Hippo is approximately 1 year old.
The first thing you notice about Hippo is his limp and his rolling gait, then a bundle of love hip hops over to greet you with wiggles and kisses. One of Hippo’s front legs is permanently damaged (probably broken at an early age and not set) but he doesn’t let it slow him down at all; it’s amazing how fast he can go! Hippo plays happily with another Pit and can hold his own in the rambunctious rough and tumble of pits at play.
Hippo loves to cuddle with his people, and despite his wonky leg, he quickly figured how to jump on the sofa and then he conquered the bed! If you’re not keen on dogs on the furniture, he hangs out happily on the floor and sleeps just fine in his crate. Hippo loves his treats and his toys and his favorite time of day is mealtime!
Hippo was dropped over the RDR Sanctuary fence in the middle of the night so we have no idea of his provenance, but we do know he’s a happy, loving, little dog who deserves a wonderful home.
