Adopt Isabel a Brindle - with White Boxer / Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed dog in

Location:

Indianapolis, IN

Description:

Meet Isabel! She’s a 5 year old, 50 pound, spayed pit/boxer/plott hound? mix. Her owner had her for her whole life and unfortunately passed away. The family did not want to continue taking care of her, and she found herself running out of time at IACS. Isabel was definitely someone’s baby. She loves her walks and also really likes to play with other dogs! She will need slow introductions to any dog in her forever home. Her foster mom feels that she may have been an only dog, as she doesn’t always take doggie social cues very well, such as when a dog is done playing she likes to continue to play. She will likely do best with another high energy, tolerant dog as she really does enjoy her play time with others. She is more of a dominant personality and will try to guard toys or bones and her humans from the submissive dogs in the home. Her foster mom has worked with her to realize that’s not okay and now she rarely guards anything. She has never attacked, she will just growl and curl her lips up and bark. She has never guarded anything from a human while in her foster home. She is strong on a leash, but we are trying to work on that. A harness would likely be ideal for her. She is crate trained but is also trustworthy to be left out with her foster sisters. She is very protective of her people and once she chooses you as her person, she loves you with her whole heart. Isabel has improved in meeting new people, especially if they have goodies for her. We were told she isn’t fond of men but she has done great meeting men while being in her foster home. Cats are a no go for her as she has a very high prey drive. She’s said to have lived previously with a small dog, though I would be prepared that she may no longer appreciate a small four legged friend. Apartment living may not be ideal as she barks at everything going by outside. She does great in the car and she also did well for her bath! She knows “sit” and is also learning to “back up” away from the door when being let outside or when visitors come. She loves to cuddle and nap on the couch. She loves to go outside and play as long as you come with her, otherwise she wants to go potty and come right back in to be with her human. She loves her food and does cute little bunny hops while she waits for you to put her bowl down. She is a very sweet girl who wants to be someone’s world again.
