Story
Meet Sally
This beautiful girl is an absolute angel. Please don’t let her breed send you running. Instead, please take a moment to read about her and you’ll know how special she is. Sally suffered all her life and very nearly didn’t make it out of a kill shelter. She was over-bred and abused. She suffered a wealth of health issues – torn ear, severe hernia, and heartworms. Her pain and misery went unattended until we were able to rescue her, thanks to an outpouring of support. To say she’s been an angel since being in our care is an understatement. This beauty is amazing.
Sally is a two-year-old Staffordshire terrier. She has a pretty white coat with patches, warm, friendly eyes and an enthused disposition. Sally only weighs about 52 lbs. She is an absolute love. She’s sweet and gentle, silly and fun. Since arriving, Sally has been a happy girl. She is a survivor. She is so grateful to be safe and loved for the first time ever. She has a lot of positive energy. She loves being with people. She loves walking and sniffing. She greets every day with joy and affection for those around her. She does not seem to like other dogs or cats, though, so will be adopted out as an only pet. She’s not so much aggressive, but prefers to be left alone. Given what her previous life was like and what she may have been exposed to, it’s no wonder she prefers her space. But for people, she’s all in. She’s very smart. She loves going on car rides and adventures. She makes us smile with her joy.
Sally is one-of-a-kind. She is going to make for a wonderful companion for that person or family willing to open their heart and home to her. If you’re looking for your one and only, Sally may be for you.
