Meet Malleus
Malleus is a lovable senior pittie with a big blocky head, an even bigger heart, and one main goal in life: getting as much affection from people as possible. He may chat with you a little when he wants attention, but it’s all part of his sweet and charming way of asking for pets, love, and companionship. This handsome guy is easy to leash, calm leaving his kennel, and walks nicely on leash while staying engaged with his people. Malleus is very treat motivated, takes snacks gently, and already knows “sit” — though he’s usually a little too excited about treats and attention to hold it for long! He’s the kind of dog who simply wants to be near his humans, soaking up affection and returning it tenfold. Malleus is available for adoption or foster and would love a comfy place to relax, cuddle, and spend his golden years being adored the way he deserves.
