One look into Simba’s soulful eyes tells you everything you need to know about this gentle, easygoing boy. At 5 years old and 75 pounds, Simba is a calm and steady Shepherd–Pit Bull Terrier mix who’s as handsome as he is well-mannered. He’s a pleasure to walk, settling quickly into a relaxed pace on the leash. While he may pull or react when he sees other dogs, he’s easily redirected and happy to keep moving once his focus is back on his handler. Simba prefers to be the only dog in the home so he can have all your love and attention to himself.
On a recent Dogs Day Out adventure, Simba showed what a wonderful companion he truly is. He stretched his legs in the play yard, showing flashes of playful energy, then settled into his signature calm walk on the trail. He hopped right into the car on his own, quietly enjoying the ride while gazing out the window. During a long hike and picnic at the park, Simba was content to lie by his handler’s legs, perfectly happy just being close to his person.
This smart boy already knows sit, down, and come, and he’s eager to please. He’s treat-motivated, takes treats gently, and behaves beautifully in public settings when given guidance. Simba isn’t interested in chasing wildlife and doesn’t bark, growl, or whine—just a quiet, steady presence by your side. He enjoys head rubs, loves affection, and was calm and patient even during his bath.
Simba’s beautiful coat and big, kind heart make him stand out, but it’s his easygoing nature and loyalty that make him unforgettable. As an owner surrender, he’s ready for a new beginning with someone who will give him the companionship, consistency, and love he deserves. Simba is the kind of dog who just wants to be near his person—and in return, he’ll give you steadfast friendship and endless affection.
