SISSY is a sweet and very
friendly pit mix. She is 5 years old
so she is still young but beyond
the puppy stage! She walks well
on a leash but a little training
would be benefi cial. She demands
to be the only animal in the home,
which she so rightly deserves,
so no other cats or dogs please!
Sissy loves people of all ages, but
would do best with a family with
kids over 5. She is a Wings of
Rescue dog from Tracy, California.
