Hi, new friend! Dan here.

Terrier energy: strong opinions, a real motor, and a heart three sizes too big.

Word is I'm a championship snuggler. I don't like to brag, but the notes don't lie.

I'm on the bigger side — which, if you ask me, is just more of me to hug.

I do come with a few special needs, but please don't let that scare you off — I just need a patient friend, and I pay it back tenfold.

Born and (almost) raised right here in Oakland.

Here's the thing — I can't tell if we'd truly click until I know a little about you. Sign in (it's free) and I'll size up your place, say hello to any dogs you've got — or be your very first — and give you my honest read on whether we'd be a match.

If all goes well, I could be curled up with my new pack by Thanksgiving — maybe yours, whether you adopt me or just help me get noticed.

Either way, thank you for seeing me today. That part mattered more than you know. — Dan

About Dan

Dan – Affectionate, Mellow, and People-Oriented Dan is a 6-year-old Pit Bull Terrier mix weighing 69 pounds. He's a sweet, affectionate guy who loves being close to his person and is happiest when he's getting attention. People-focused and affectionate: Dan likes to stay close to his person and will often come right over and automatically sit at their feet for attention. If the pets stop, he may politely nudge his person a few times to let them know he'd happily like more. Smart and treat motivated: Dan responds very well to "sit" and enjoys "find it" games. He's especially fond of cheese and may happily follow his person around in hopes of getting another tasty treat. Mellow with a playful side: Dan has an overall mellow demeanor, but he can get a little bouncy when he becomes especially excited. Manageable on leash: Dan pulls a bit on leash but is very manageable. Dan will do best with appropriately matched dogs or as a solo dog with well-matched canine friends.
