Bruce, a Staffordshire Terrier/Pitbull mix, was brought into us when he was found roaming around Tilton. He's approximately 2 years old, extremely smart, he knows many commands & tricks. He can even open and close containers, and he is very active. Bruce is a VERY strong boy, weighing in at 60 pounds. (most of which is muscle!). Bruce does not like cats & he is picky about his dog friends. He will need a highly active owner who also knows his breed well. This pup will need "leash reactivity" training and someone who can dedicate time working with him on this. Because of his strength, it is important that this guy learns social manners to maintain a healthy relationship with his owners and everyone he may meet. Bruce is neutered and up-to-date on all of his vaccinations.
