Cosmo

Meet Cosmo, a big-hearted and goofy two-year-old Pitbull mix from Phoenix, AZ, whose playful spirit and loving nature make him an amazing companion! With his rich chocolate-brown coat, white chest, and a smile that can brighten any day, this 80-pound sweetheart is looking for his next loving home.

Cosmo is an affectionate and energetic pup who thrives on companionship. He loves playing with ropes and rubber chew toys, and he’s always up for a good romp in the yard or a nice walk to burn off energy! While he enjoys being active, he also knows how to settle down and relax when it's time. He’s crate trained, house-trained, and knows basic commands like sit, stay, and down, making him a well-mannered addition to the right home.

Cosmo is great with bigger dogs and the handful of children he has met, making him a wonderful fit for a family or household with a sturdy playmate. However, he does not do well with cats or small dogs, so a pet-free home or one with a fellow large-breed companion would be best. He thrives in a calm, structured environment, as too much chaos can make him feel a little overwhelmed.

This lovable guy is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and ready for his next adventure! He would do best in a home with a fenced yard where he can run and play freely. If you’re looking for a goofy, fun-loving dog who will bring joy, companionship, and plenty of laughter into your life, Cosmo might be your perfect match!
