Adopt Orange Blossom the American Pit Bull Terrier 🐾

If you are thinking about adopting Orange Blossom, meeting her in person at Chicago Animal Care and Control may help you better understand how she responds outside the kennel environment. Some dogs appear much calmer once they are able to spend time with visitors away from the busiest shelter areas.

Depending on conditions that day, interactions may happen outdoors in enclosed yards or inside quieter meet and greet rooms. Some visitors spend time walking with her while others use treats or toys during one on one interaction. Spending time together in person often provides a much clearer understanding of how she behaves in calmer surroundings.

Volunteers are usually available nearby to answer questions about adoption timing, surgery recovery, fostering, and rescue partner involvement. If Orange Blossom still needs surgery before going home, she may need additional recovery time afterward before pickup becomes available.

Some visitors arrive planning to adopt while others become interested in fostering after learning more about rescue partner placements during the interaction. Rescue organizations may also provide veterinary care, supplies, and support during foster placement.
