Linus
Boxer / American Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed · Baby (7 months) · Male · Gilberts, IL
Notes from Project Hope Animal
Linus is the sweetest boy with an absolutely wonderful temperament! We had the pleasure of having him stay with us for the weekend, and he quickly won all of our hearts. He is friendly, affectionate, and just an all-around easygoing dog. Linus did great with our children and loved being part of the family. We even took him along to our son’s baseball game, and he handled all the activity, people, and excitement like a champ. He truly just loves being wherever his people are. He also did wonderfully with our other dogs and loved having a furry friend to play with. Linus listens well, knows how to sit, and is a very well-behaved boy. He enjoys meeting new people, loves car rides, and is happiest when he gets to be included in the fun. Linus has such a gentle, loving personality and would make a wonderful addition to just about any family. He’s the kind of dog who makes you wonder how someone could ever let him go.
