Kiwi - A731629 - American Pit Bull Terrier








Kiwi is a 2 year and 6 month old American Pit Bull Terrier. He has been at the Animal Care and Control Center in NYC since 9/28/07.

Kiwi is a very strong dog. He is also a dominant dog. There's no question about that. He did pull a lot and when we sat down to rest he wasn't interested in cuddling. It was all about sniffing and pooping for him. But, nevertheless, I enjoyed my time with him as I do all of them. I can appreciate his dominance and confidence in himself.

When we brought him back in, we passed by this other dogs cage and the other dog went nuts. After being in their cages for a long time, some dogs will develop "cage aggression," which this dog did. He barked and growled at Kiwi but Kiwi paid him no mind. The other dog was persistent, so Kiwi started to bark and growl back. It was a little scary but we managed to pull Kiwi away. Not that anything could happen through the bars, but still....

The good thing is that Kiwi didn't start a thing. He needs a strong owner, a dominant owner, more dominant than him, and definitely one that can handle his strength.

If you are interested in adding Kiwi to your loving family visit the Animal Care & Control Center website or call 212.788.4000 and give them his special A#.
