✨ Meet Betty — Your Gentle Giant Bestie ✨ Betty is a beautiful 3-year-old Pit Bull / Great Dane mix with a heart as big as her paws and a soul that’s soft, sweet, and quietly silly once she feels safe. She is dog and cat friendly and has experience at doggy daycare, so she knows how to coexist in a social setting. Betty has also done well in a home with older children, making her a great fit for a family that understands respectful dog interactions. She loves to play and have fun, though she can be a little enthusiastic for smaller dogs, so medium-to-large canine companions are her best match. Betty can be a bit of a scaredy pup at first. She’s a submissive, gentle girl who may hang back or cower with some new people while she figures out she’s safe. Other times, she’ll walk right up like an old friend. Once she knows you’re kind, she warms up quickly and shows her affectionate, goofy, loving personality. Calm energy, patience, and reassurance help her shine. ✨ Why this Pit Bull / Great Dane mix is extra special: • Pit Bulls are known for being loyal, affectionate, and people-oriented • Great Danes are famous gentle giants—sweet, sensitive, and devoted • Together, they create a dog who is loving, emotionally intuitive, and deeply bonded to her humans Betty is ready for a home that will let her build confidence at her own pace and reward her with the love she so freely gives. Think Betty might be your perfect match? She’s ready to meet you.
