Ada is a 2-year-old female Pit Bull Terrier mix listed as "Special Needs" because she's tested heartworm positive. She'll need about three months in a foster home while she undergoes treatment, which PAHS will fully cover, providing food, bedding, and anything else to keep her comfortable. Ada came to PAHS as a stray in rough shape-pregnant, with broken teeth, and a poor coat. Now, her coat is shiny and beautiful! She's brown with white markings, weighs 57 pounds, and is a big, sweet girl. Despite her past, Ada is incredibly gentle, calm, friendly with everyone, including kids and other dogs, and she is eager to please. Just four days after arriving, she gave birth to puppies, but sadly only one, Hammy, survived-she's also available for adoption. Ada deserves a fresh start, but first needs to complete her heartworm treatments. Please consider fostering her during this time; the staff would be thrilled to introduce you to her.
