Meet miss personality, a dog who won't let a rough start keep her down. B101.7's Pet of the Week with the Humane Society of West Alabama is Nina, a 3 year-old pit bull/terrier mix.

Nina has a pretty fawn smooth coat with some white on her chest. She weighs 45 pounds now, fully grown, and is all muscle!

Nina got hit by a car in November 2012. Her owner rushed her to the vet, where they put a splint on her leg. The leg healed completely, but her owner couldn't afford corrective surgery, so Nina does have a slight limp. But don’t worry, this doesn't stop Miss Nina from playing at 100%!

Unfortunately, Nina’s owners abandoned her after the surgery. She was at the shelter for almost two months, so the Humane Society of West Alabama finished her vet care and placed her in a wonderful foster home.

Here's what Nina's foster home has to say, "Nina is very playful and energetic! She warms up to new dogs and people, and she lives with 2 cats. Her back left leg is weak, but she doesn't let it stop her from running and playing! She is so sweet and loving and she does like to cuddle after a day of play. She deserves a fun-loving, caring home! She is fully crate and house trained, and she's doing better with her food aggression towards other animals. Nina is trained in basic obedience. She plays well with toys, and she loves fetch. She is a fairly well-mannered adult dog."

Nina will require a fenced yard and a home check will be done to confirm the fenced yard. She will want to be inside with you so this doesn't mean she is to be left in the yard all the time. If children are in the household, they must be 12 or older due to her food aggression issues, just to be on the safe side.

Nina is crate and house trained. Nina is spayed, current on vaccinations, heart worm negative, and on heartworm and flea/tick prevention. She is having fun living in a home environment again but very ready for a place to call her own home! Nina has been through so much, and she deserves a wonderful, loving home. Will it be yours?

If you are interested in giving Nina the forever home she wants and deserves, visit HumaneSocietyOfWA.org or call 205-554-0011.
