The perfect way to describe Fritz’s playful and lovable manner is equating him to a favorite cartoon pup, Scooby Doo! Yes, Fritz is just as goofy, snuggly, and lively as Scooby Doo, with his current Foster Mom Emma explaining that he loves walks, any kind of food and toy, and spending as much time as possible with his adult friend.
Fritz’s story is a remarkable one: originally from the South (Tennessee to be exact), he was taken off the euthanasia list at the Memphis Animal Shelter on the same day that PAWS New England was able to bring him up here to Massachusetts. Fritz wasn’t on the euthanasia list because of poor doggy behavior- no this is unfortunately a common occurrence at animal shelters as space can become extremely limited.
Not only is Fritz uniquely adorable with his one blue eye, but he is also deaf! Please don’t let this deter you as Fritz is the goodest boy and watches his human caretaker carefully for hand signals. Emma, PAWS New England longtime Foster Mom, will make sure to teach you everything you need to know to communicate with Fritz properly. Fritz is a loyal pup in this way that he likes to be near you and be able to see you. If you love cuddling, Fritz can definitely be a good match. It is recommended that Fritz go to a home with no small children under 10 and no larger dogs than himself. It is not known whether he likes cats but Fritz loves to play with smaller dogs. He was very popular at daycare because of this!
Fritz is 2 years old, up to date on vaccinations, and is a Pit Bull Terrier/Crossbreed. He weighs about 56 pounds and is micro chipped. Fritz is currently hanging out with his Foster Mom but you can inquire about adoption through PAWS New England. The adoption fee is $500.
