My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hey there, folks! Woof! The name's Bones, and I'm here to tell you all about myself. At six and a half years young, I've got plenty of spunk and love to share with someone special like you.

Let's start with the basics - I'm a proud American Staffordshire Terrier with a heart as big as my bark. I may be a little older, but let me tell you, I've still got plenty of pep in my step and a whole lot of love to give. Whether it's showering you with kisses or curling up in your lap for a cuddle session, I'm all about spreading joy and affection wherever I go.

Now, let's talk about my favorite topic - treats! Oh, how I adore them! I'm highly treat motivated and always eager to learn new tricks or commands in exchange for a tasty snack. But here's the thing - I'm a little on the chunky side and could stand to lose a few pounds. But don't worry, with your help and guidance, I'm sure to slim down and become the picture of health in no time!

When it comes to walks, I'm a pro! I walk well on a leash and love exploring the great outdoors by your side. And speaking of exploration, I'm smart as a whip and always eager to please. Whether it's learning new tricks, playing games, or just hanging out with my favorite humans, I'm always up for some fun and adventure.

Now, let's address the elephant in the room - my compatibility with other furry friends. While I haven't had much experience with other dogs and cats, I'm willing to give it a try with the right introduction and guidance. After all, I'm a people-pleaser at heart and just want to make my humans proud.

Before you come to meet me at the shelter, please note that adopters will need to fill out an adoption application online first. This helps ensure that we find the perfect match for each other. Once your application is approved, we can arrange a visit and start our journey together!

At 62 pounds, I may be a big boy, but trust me - I've got an even bigger heart that's just waiting to be filled with love and affection. So, if you're looking for a loyal companion who's equal parts sweet, affectionate, and eager to please, look no further than yours truly, Bones. I can't wait to meet you and start our happily ever after!
