You might not be able to say “trick or treat!” before Nash treats you to a bunch of doggie hugs and kisses! Nash is a lovable 2-year-old pit bull who’s a nice fellow. He sits patiently for his turn at walks and playtime, and when he’s out in the yard or on leash, he’s non-reactive to other dogs. You may gnash your teeth, though, when you find out his shelter origin story: underweight, with bad skin and cuts on his body. But that was in March, and you oughta see him now! That costume covers up a unique pattern of orange fur — looks like a 20th century modern-art painting! In fact, one of the volunteers painted his portrait, which hangs on his kennel. Come see it — you can take home the model!
