Adopt Pringle the American Pit Bull Terrier 🐾

Some visitors leave Chicago Animal Care and Control already planning their next steps after meeting Pringle in person. Spending time together outside the kennel environment often gives people a much better understanding of how she behaves during one on one interaction.

Depending on shelter activity and weather conditions, interactions may happen outdoors or inside quieter meet and greet rooms. Some visitors spend the interaction walking with her while others use treats or toys while learning more about how she responds outside the kennel environment.

Volunteers may explain fostering through rescue organizations for visitors interested in helping her leave the shelter sooner while providing a more stable environment outside the shelter. Rescue partners may also provide food, supplies, and veterinary support during foster placement.

Watching Pringle relax during the interaction often makes it easier for visitors to imagine what she could be like in a home environment. Some adopters decide quickly after the visit while others return for additional meet and greet sessions before making a final decision.
