Found! Large Male Dog - Friendly Pit Bull or Pit Bull MixFound dark brown male dog with some lighter spots and white star shaped patch on chest in the Seven Courts neighborhood. Friendly, loyal, and very quiet (not a barker). The dog is very clean, so we suspect him to have recently got away. We took him to the Pet ER to check for micro chip. The vet believes the dog to be a pit bull or pit bull and american boxer mix. The vet estimated the dog to be between 1 and 2 years old based on an examination of teeth.

He has a really cool white star on his chest. Very cute! Hope he finds his home... if it was a good home... maybe he escaped thuggery and prefers a finer life with you guys ;)

Thank you for taking this baby to Pet ER and taking the time to find his owners. It's nice to know there are still people that do the right thing and care for others!
