Faith was found tied to a tree in a Pasadena park on a 95-degree day, left in the sun for hours without water before a Good Samaritan stepped in to bring him to safety. Despite his background living on the streets, this 40-pound Pitbull mix holds no grudges. He is a quiet and stable companion who rarely barks. When he meets new people, his immediate reaction is to wag his tail, ask for attention, and show off his signature silly tongue-out smile. He thrives on human companionship and naturally wants to stick close to his people. In addition to loving humans, Faith has shown excellent social skills around other dogs and interacts with them effortlessly. Faith is a steady, easy-to-live-with young dog. He doesn't carry the weight of his previous neglect; instead, he simply appreciates being in a safe space where he can rest. He settles down nicely and enjoys affection without being overly demanding. He would do best in a home with someone who has some dog experience and can offer him the indoor comfort and daily routine he was previously denied. Because he gets along so well with his peers, he would easily integrate into a multi-dog household, but he would also be perfectly content as a loyal solo companion. He’s a resilient, affectionate dog ready to unpack his bags and enjoy a stable life.

Terrier

🧠 Temperament

In addition to loving humans, Faith has shown excellent social skills around other dogs and interacts with them effortlessly. Bold, curious and busy.

🎾 Exercise

Moderate to high, and mental more than physical — 45-60 minutes plus digging, sniffing or puzzle outlets.

✂️ Grooming

Varies. Wiry coats need hand-stripping or clipping every few months; smooth coats need very little.

🏙️ In an LA apartment

He is a quiet and stable companion who rarely barks. Their small size suits apartments well.
