MEET BAGEL🥯

Bagel is 1 1/2 years old and is a total love bug. He is a blend of American Staffy Terrier and Carolina Dog. He is about 95 lbs but doesn’t understand his size when he wants to sit on your lap. He is partially blind from head trauma he had as a puppy. This does not stop him in any way, and you wouldn’t notice it in his every day life, unless you move a piece of furniture. He loves the outdoors and spending as much time as he can out there with his person or his dog friends. He is learning to come back when called. He sits to go outside, to get his food, and to come out of his kennel. He has potty trained. He sleeps on his bed with a blanket at night and loves to be as close to his Hooman as he can be.

Unfortunately, due to his head trauma as a young puppy, he has some reactionary behaviors. He has excitatory peeing when he’s meeting somebody new or extremely excited. But he wears a male wrap just fine. He is also unable to get himself up on the bed or in vehicles without assist. He has some food aggression, but does good when he is put into his secure spot to eat.

He currently lives with four other female dogs, and is best pals with one of them. And loves to play! The others he does display some herding, bullying, and has been aggressive with another one over toys. He lives with a cat who he is too curious about, so a home with no cats would be best.

We feel the best home for Bagel would be one with either a male dog, or perhaps an alpha female. He does like to play with a male dog that comes over to visit and they get along great! He also gets along with the alpha female in the house really well. He will need training to work on the food, aggression and some manners.
