Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Finnick, one of the sweetest dogs I have ever had the pleasure to foster. He truly loves everyone! He calmly greets strangers at the front door and on the street, and will cry for a moment when they leave. He adores my two little ones, and loves to sit on laps. Finnick gets along well with other dogs, and lived with a dominant small breed dog in his last home. He walks nicely on a leash, is housebroken and crate trained, and has excellent manners. This calm, handsome AmStaff really is the ideal family dog. Sadly, his last family did not take very good care of him. His ears were terribly infected when he was rescued, he is 15 pounds overweight, and he was spending 14 hours a day in a crate. Additionally, both of his cruciate ligaments were torn years ago and never treated. As a result of this neglect, he has developed arthritis and muscle atrophy throughout his body. In less than 2 weeks in our loving home he has begun to lose weight and made great progress towards healing. He is getting around much better, and he is thriving with pain management. As he continues to lose weight and build muscle, he will feel even better. We are unsure of his age, but estimate that he is 6 to 8 years of age. A&S desperately wants to find Finnick a family to spend the rest of his years with. He doesn't need much ongoing care, just exercise, a glucosamine supplement, and his pain medication as needed. (The rescue is willing to commit to paying for his medication for the rest of his life) Finnick will do well as a companion for a single person or he would love to live in a home with kids. Really, all he needs is love :) If you are interested in adopting this lovely boy, please visit our website at www.aandsrescue.com and fill out an application. After review, a volunteer will contact you. Thank you for your interest!
