Blanca

Meet Blanca

Breed: Pit Bull Mix
Date of Birth: July 11, 2021
⚖️ Weight: 80 pounds
Spayed & Healthy
Intake Date: June 6, 2023

Blanca is a big, beautiful girl with a loving heart and a happy, eager spirit. She enjoys attention and affection from her people and has so much potential to thrive in the right home. This smart girl is currently in training through the Paws to Prison Program at Corcoran Prison, where she's learning from dedicated inmate handlers. She's working on important skills like sit, stay, and leash walking, helping her grow into a more confident and obedient companion. The structure and care of this program are helping Blanca build trust and become her best self.

Notes from the trainer: Blanca is a gentle, 4-year-old American Pit Terrier/Dogo Argentino mix weighing about 85-90 pounds. Despite common misconceptions about her breed, she's calm, motherly, and easy to love. Blanca is bilingual, responding to commands in both Spanish and English, and knows a variety of tricks and manners such as sitting, lying down, rolling over, staying, and waiting patiently for food. She's house-trained, non-aggressive, and takes treats gently.

Blanca is great with other dogs, enjoys tug-of-war, basketball, belly rubs, cuddling, and even baths. She's ticklish on her chest and back legs, rarely barks, and communicates when she needs to go outside. While she dislikes loud noises and will chase lawnmowers, she loves golf cart rides. She's curious about cats in a playful way. Due to past mistreatment, she may cower if hands move quickly near her face, but she remains affectionate and trusting.

Overall, Blanca is a loving, well-mannered companion who craves attention, enjoys naps, and is looking for a safe, caring forever home.

Special Considerations
Blanca may do best as the only dog in a home without young children. She's selective with other animals and needs a calm, experienced owner who understands dog behavior and can continue her training with patience and consistency.

Things to Consider

Do you have experience with strong, intelligent breeds?

Can you provide time, patience, and consistent leadership?

Does your home (and landlord, if applicable) allow large dogs?
