Story
This boy will do best with an experienced bully breed owner who understands confident, energetic dogs and is committed to continuing his training. A trainer who evaluated Burnie believes he has every opportunity to become an outstanding companion with consistency, patience, and ongoing structure.Meet Burnie. Burnie is a 11 month old [Staffordshire Terrier] currently fostering in New England.Burnie is a real sweetheart, and a GREAT house dog. He's playful, smart, crate trained, and has never destroyed anything that wasn't his. (Except tissues...he loves chewing those : )He's VERY food motivated - which helps with training. He is exceptionally affectionate. He loves being on your lap, and sleeping by your side. He enjoys to learn, and picks up on new things very quickly. (He learned "back up" in about 5 minutes.) He knows "wait", "sit", "come" and is working on "down".He has an exceptional good nose, and would likely be good with scent work.This boy will do best with an experienced bully breed owner who understands confident, energetic dogs and is committed to continuing his training. He is looking for an active family and if he has a four legged playmate they should be his size and his energy level. He likes to meet new friends slowly and then he will be their best friend. No cats or small dogs for Burnie.Older children (10 years or older) would be best, he seems to be active and might be too much for small children. Please reach out to learn about Burnie.
