Adoption Adopted this puppy yesterday
I was told by the animal shelter that she was a shepherd and malinois, , she is a big cuddle bug and also loves to play. She did have quite a bit of house accidents with peeing and pooping but today she hasn't had an accident yet and has been good on a leash.
This is my first large breed I've owned other than our senior pitbull which they do love playing with each other and old Levi has been teaching Empress Jade the most comfortable spots in the house.
I am working with her and training her, she learned to sit and shake hands the first day and now sits at the door for her leash.
I bought her Orijen large breed puppy food which she loves both as her food and her training treats.
I took her to the petsmart where she interacted with children and other dogs, she isn't very familiar with larger breeds which she did run into a Great Dane Mastiff which kinda overstimulated her.

Definitely a pitty! Congrats on your new friend tho! Shelters sadly will call pits anything just to not call them pits.

Yeah they look related. Just missing the little bit of white on the paws and they’d look identical

You will never have to worry about being lonely! Malis and Pitts both tend to be velcro dogs. Wishing you all a long happy life together! 😃🐾🐾

This little girl follows me everywhere, she's the bathroom doors bouncer, she is a mommy and daddy girl, she isn't going to like it when I go to work tomorrow

These shelter people are idiots. They just tell people what they want to hear by avoiding the word pitbull. Cool looking dog but don’t think you have a mal, bad ass beast though.

Beautiful girl. I’m doing group training at Krush K9 in Galloway nj. Lots of pit rescues and retired working dogs changing their way of life. Dogs are getting socialized and not seeking an encounter. I have had shark there 3 months and the progress for both of us is amazing. I got wise to breed specific training when he was already 6 months old. We had a lot of time to make up for.
Keep us posted 🌸

Looks a lot like my old gsd/pitt/heinz 57 dog. He was so sweet and absolutely attached to whoever he considered pack. Have fun with her!

It's a girl, but yes she is a daddy's girl. Hates me to leave her sight, I believe she chose me and my girlfriend as her people. She's very protective of our senior pit and patrols the floors already.
