My story

Meet Brussel Sprout – Your Handsome, Smart, and Utterly Lovable Pitty! 🐶 Male | Medium | Brown & White Pit Bull Mix Brussel Sprout (or simply “Brussel”) first stole hearts while living with 23 other dogs in a high-profile animal cruelty case. Despite a rough past and time spent in animal control, this sweetheart’s resilience shines through—his amazing smile is just the beginning. Why everyone falls in love with Brussel: 🐾 Unmatched Recall & Intelligence Brussel is proof that smart dogs rule. He not only knows “crate”, but also ranks top-tier in recall and command-following. His foster says, “Best recall and great with all commands.” 🐾 Playful, Sweet, & Respectful Companion He’s playful and fun-loving, yet always respectful around other dogs. Brussel lives with kids right now and excels in a family setting—enjoying playtime and downtime in equal measure 🐾 Excellent with Dogs & Kids He thrives with other canine pals and adapts well to homes with children, making him a perfect addition to many family types. 🐾 Loyal and Loving Brussel blossoms when he connects deeply to his person—becoming the ideal, affectionate companion. His foster sums him up in three words: lovable, sweet, best buddy. 🐾 Versatile Adventure Pal Whether you're out for a playful romp or a relaxing walk, Brussel is ready. When it's time to unwind, he's happy to snooze beside you. He’s also easy in the car, comfortable on walks, and never a troublemaker on leash . Brussel Sprout at a Glance ✅ House-trained & crate-trained ✅ Knows key commands & has stellar recall ✅ Dog-friendly, kid-friendly, and calm with other pets ✅ Smart, trainable, and eager to bond Brussel’s journey from cruelty to confidence shows just how transformative love and patience can be. If you're searching for a smart, adaptable, and deeply loyal partner—who’s as handsome as he is kind—Brussel Sprout is your guy! Looking for a playful cuddle bug to complete your home?
