Furry Friday – Kato


This guy has the best face markings!  This week’s adorable adoptable from the Animal Rescue League of Iowa is Katokato 3.  He is an American Pit Bull Terrier.  Look at his face!

When I first saw him I thought they had bunny ears on him (which they are want to do).  So, here’s a little more about him from the ARL:

BIG FAN OF: People, toys, and treats! He’d love if his new family spoiled him with a basketful of toys.

NOT A FAN OF: Sharing his tasty chews or food. He prefers to enjoy them in peace.kato2

SPECIAL FEATURES: Kato is fun and friendly with really cool markings. He LOVES chasing after toys and exploring our dog park. He currently knows sit and really likes treats, so he’d be a great candidate for training classes.

DREAM HOME: With an active family who will understand his need to eat in peace. He will be a great walking or running partner once he learns some leash manners. He has done well with other dogs and may enjoy a friend.

Remember Please Adopt, Don’t Shop. -Kate
