Payson says:
`Hi...My name is Payson and I am 3 years old. I am a large mixed breed Pit. My trainer thinks I may have some Sharpei in me as well as Bassett Hound. I weigh 80 some pounds, am mostly muscle. People say I am a `sweetheart`. I love being around people, especially women and kids, even lots of people with little children running around. Guys are alright too. I am pretty mellow. I sleep a lot. I like the couch, my large foam dog bed and my big pillow in my crate.
I have been living with my Foster Dad since November 20, 2018. We have been going to training because I am too enthusiastic, too strong. At times I can be a bit stubborn. Training has helped a lot. I am working on `sit`, `stay` and `lay down`, doing this reliably. My Foster Dad calls me `Payson, the Wonder Dog`. I am very smart. I hardly bark at all. I am fully house trained and you can leave me alone at home. I don`t get into anything, not even my dog food bag or the garbage. I like to go for walks, hikes. I LOVE to ride in the vehicle, wait there while you go shopping when it`s not too hot of course. I don`t jump around all hyper and impatient. I go for walks and do all my business twice a day, Morning and late afternoon, early evening. I have not been sick or anything since being here. I love to roll in the grass on my back and my horse grooming brush. I have very short fur, hardly shed at all and have cool markings.
Please help me find a home with someone young and stronger, maybe with a family that is willing to work with me. My owner was thinking I could be a great companion... and I am!`
