My story

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

Baby is a 3 year old Staffordshire Bull Terrier who is Up-To-Date on all of her shots and is spayed. A lot of people and other rescues try to classify pitbulls "staffordshires", but Baby is a genuine Staff Bull. She was saved from a high kill shelter in CT just in the nick of time, before they euthanized her to make room for more dogs coming off the streets of Connecticut. She was abused, bred, neglected, and beat up by other dogs. Her body is covered in scars and she was completly emaciated when she came into our care. Her previous owner in CT was actually trying to get her back from the pound, but he couldn't "make bail" for her. Thats when our rescue stepped in before she was put down to make more room. She loves people and kids of all ages, shapes, sizes, and races and would really enjoy sitting on the couch with you all day cuddling! She does well with most male dogs, but doesn't do well with other females, but it really depends on the dog. She isn't the biggest fan of energetic little puppies, or overly hyper or dominant adult dogs. She enjoys a nice stroll around the block and loves being scratched all over. She makes silly snorting and grunting noises and snores a little when she is sleeping. We think she would make an amazing therapy dog because of the love she possesses for people. She is quite tiny, weighing in at around 35-40 lbs. She has a silly ear that sticks straight up, and a small wart on the top of her head, which I think just gives her more character! Her silly anticks will keep you laughing all day and night! She knows basic obedience commands such as sit, stay, laydown, kennel, paw, and get. (which means move away) She walks very well on leash, and we are currently working on breaking her focus on other dogs while out walking, which she is doing very well with. She acually ignores the cat that lives in the foster home with her, so we do not see a problem adopting her out to a family who already has cats. She is almost completely potty trained, she just needs someone to take her out a few extra times a day.
