History:
Preacher was born and bred in an underground dog fighting ring in a very rough part of town. However, due to his gentle and kind temperament, he was used as a bait dog to train the more aggressive dogs on the compound. After managing to survive several years of severe abuse, he was dumped on the side of the road and left to fend for himself.
He was found by a passerby, cowering under a bridge after starving for several weeks. When they called the local rescue, the team went out to try and find him, however after arriving on scene and expecting an aggressive, snarling canine, the massive Pitbull hid between their legs in a desperate cry for help.
It took several months for his wounds to heal and for him to get back to a proper weight again, but once Preacher was healthy and happy, he was finally put up for adoption.
Now, Preacher is patiently waiting in the shelter to find his forever person, entertaining the staff on a daily basis with his goofy personality and friendly nature. He has been taught how to properly walk on a leash without dragging his handlers, knows all basic commands and has even learned some more advanced tricks, certain to keep anyone who decides to take him home entertained.
