A1946356

Located At: Albuquerque Animal Welfare Department - Eastside
Description: Shelter staff named me Emerald Jade and I am a female, blue American Pit Bull Terrier mix.
I have been available for adoption since Jun 11, 2026.

Age: The shelter thinks I am about 2 years old.
Weight: I weigh approximately 55.00 lbs.
More Info: I have been at the shelter since Jun 07, 2026.
Emerald Jade is a soft-hearted girl who is still learning that the world can be safe.

A little shy at first, she opens up with patience, gentle encouragement, and plenty of tasty treats.
Once she starts to feel comfortable, she shows her sweet, affectionate side and even believes she might just be your perfect little lap dog.
She enjoys exploring at her own pace and looks to her person for reassurance along the way.
Busy or noisy environments can feel overwhelming right now, but with kindness and time, her confidence continues to grow. Emerald Jade is looking for someone who understands that trust isn’t instant—it’s built, one gentle moment at a time.

Medical & Care Notes: Emerald Jade will have surgery for cherry eye at the time of spay, and she will go home with post-op care (including a protective collar and ointment). Mild complications are covered by the clinic for a limited time, and follow-up care must be provided through the same clinic. She is also on anti-anxiety medication.

Behavior Notes: She has been part of a shy dog program and can be fearful with handling, especially in medical settings.
In a home, she may take time to adjust and could show different behavior than in the shelter.
Positive reinforcement training is strongly recommended to help her build confidence and feel secure.

With patience and love, Emerald Jade has all the potential to blossom into a deeply loyal companion.
