Diamond (A574462) is a 1yr and 4mos old, 53lbs, unaltered female, blue and white “American pit bull terrier”. Diamond has been at the Prince George’s County Animal shelter since Sept 15th, 2026.
Diamond was excited to see me when I arrived at her kennel and was easy to leash up because she understood that leash DEFINITELY means walkies are coming! Diamond did fuss back at the dogs that barked at her as we headed past their kennels on our way to the door to go outside. Dog reactivity to other barking lunging dogs in the shelter doesn’t automatically mean the dog doesn’t like other dogs, but can be a sign of stress and can help inform a future plan to allow Diamond to decompress before slow and gradual intros to other household pets take place. Diamond has done well with slow gradual intros to another female dog of her size and general temperament when volunteers introduced them at the shelter.
Diamond did use the bathroom relatively quickly after heading outside, suggesting the possibility that she’s previously had some house training experience. As always after a dog has spent an extended time in a kennel it is recommended to give them time to adjust to a home environment again. Unfortunately the big run in the field wasn’t available when I had Diamond out for a walk as I would really love to have seen if she’s interested in toys or in playing/running with me, but we got to take some pics with the lovely autumn leaves and we walked together long enough that she shook off of some of the initial frustration that led to leash pulling and settled into a nice even tempo for our walk together.
