Precious pit needs a forever home

Every time I read about another family have to give up their dog, I pray it is not a pitbull. The reason I offer up this prayer is the routine killing of this breed of dog due to the overwhelming numbers in the area. No one seems to want a shelter full of pitbulls due to the nasty reputation they have gained over the last 10 years. So when the numbers of the breed begin increasing, the number of deaths rises.
Gator was saved from a life in a rumored fighting house. He was starved when he came to the first rescue and only weighed 18 pounds. He is a little guy, black with white markings and reminds me of another pitbull who had a great impact on my life, Bubba.
Champ was his original name but he had been so starved when he got to rescue, he would snap your hand if you had food in it. We changed his name to Gator and are working on his manners to teach him food will always be there. He is about 27 pounds now and cute as a button.
Some trainers have been working on his sit and stay. He is a smart little guy, with personality plus.
Gator needs a home who will work on his training and not allow him to get away with misbehaving because he is so adorable. He would love to become your partner in fun. He seems to like other dogs and all people, but he is a work in progress and training needs to be consistent.
If you would like to meet Gator and are willing to work with this precious pup, please contact Caroline at comments@satchelslastresort.com to inquire.
We also have many other animals right now who would love to go home for the holidays. They come complete with all their shots, spayed or neutered and a big red bow around their necks. Please consider a second chance dog. You will gain a friend for life. Check them out here.
