Adoptable Animal of the Week: Rum Raisin
A Town of Hempstead animal that needs a new home.

- Name: Rum Raisin
- Case Number:Â 20135714
- Breed: Pit Bull Terrier
I enjoy playing with people. Though I'm not terribly playful with toys now, I may become moreso once in a home. Because of my exuberance and lack of impulse control, I'd be better with teens and up until I learn some manners. I am a little uncomfortable with some handling (snout). I will readily share my food with people.
I tend to be stiff and inappropriate with other dogs. I can be humpy and not playful. With the right playmates, I might learn to be more playful and appropriate, but introductions should be done carefully due to my size and strength. Ultimately, I may well be happier as a people-centric pooch.
I don't know any basic commands but, I may do just about anything for you once you're my person. I definitely need to learn to walk nicely on leash and not to be jumpy. And training will help us forge a relationship.Â
