Story
I am a sweet two year old female Stafforshire. I was saved from a high kill shelter 1 hour before I was going to be put down solely due to kennel stress. Now that I’ve had time to decompress and be myself, I’m ready for my forever home! I am smart, affectionate, playful, protective, I know basic commands and take my treats gently, love my walks and playing with my sticks and toys. I want to please my humans and enjoy training. Not great with cats so far. I’m interested in other dogs and want to play, we have been working on some good manners there :) Support for 6 months from my dog trainer will transfer to my forever family (my foster mom wants to make sure everything will be perfect) 🤗 I’m house trained and crate trained. Never had an accident at home. I’m respectful of furniture and have not damaged anything. When I play and show my smile, I’m irresistible. So many people stop us on our walks to say what a beautiful dog I am!

Story
Meet Sandy! If you're looking for an intelligent, responsive adventure dog, look no further. This clever, social girl is housetrained according to her previous home and foster home. She is also crate trained, and her foster reported that she listens well, knows some cues, and enjoys car rides. Sandy loves being around people and playing fetch or catching a Frisbee. There's a lot to love about our sweet Sandy! Our staff and volunteers have been consistently impressed with her resilience and her ability to learn, despite her lengthy stay in the shelter. Sandy would thrive in a home that can give her plenty of exercise, enrichment, and of course love! She would also prefer to live in a home without cats, and may benefit from living with a dog-savvy, tolerant dog that can show her how to navigate the canine social world. Sandy would love to meet you- just ask our Adoptions staff about her!
