Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Gabe! He is a 2 yr old neutered male American Staffordshire/Tosa mix that weighs 57lbs. He came in as a stray on 2/9 to the Mesquite Animal Shelter. He is such a handsome boy and definitely knows how to pose for a picture! Gabe has a very gentle soul. He walks well on a leash and enjoys taking his time walking through the shelter yard. He can be shy at first if around many people he does not know. The more time he spends with you, the more confident he becomes. He takes treats gently, enjoys being petted and may be house trained too. He enjoyed climbing on the play equipment and stood at the top with his head up enjoying all the smells. He enjoys chasing balls but does not return them. He is so ready to find his own loving home with a secured backyard he can enjoy, but then live indoors where he enjoys the company of his human companions. Walking past other dogs barking at him he did not have a response, but we do always ask if you have another dog in the home, to please ask the shelter for a dog test. Please help by networking him or send a rescue tag to rescues@cityofmesquite.comwith the subject line TAG 55249467. Any further questions, please email or call972.216.6283.

Story

Let me introduce you to Jasper, an American Staffordshire mix picked up by one of our officers along with his brother Johnny on 3/25 and brought to the Mesquite Animal Shelter. Jasper weighs 54 pounds, is about 3 years old and is neutered. His brother has been adopted and Jasper has now been here for 3 1/2 months. He wonders why his brother was adopted and he wasn't. They are almost identical in looks and personality. He's still holding out hope that that special person will come and see what an amazing boy he is and get him out of the shelter. He does well on a leash, knows the sit command, is lively, active, playful, and loves squeaky toys. He does jump on you and manners training would certainly be in order. It seems obvious that Jasper lived outdoors because in one of these pictures you can see the scaly skin and hair loss on his back. During his time at the shelter, he has been given nutritious food, and has been treated for the hair loss. And he looks so much better! Jasper is another dog that does not show well in his kennel with barking and jumping and it just gives people the wrong impression. Once outside the kennel, he calms down. I had him in a room recently and the officer that picked the brothers up came in. He ran over to her and gave her hugs and kisses! Can you please help Jasper find that special home? He absolutely positively does not want to live outside again but rather wants to live inside and be an important part of his family's life.

Sawyer

American Staffordshire Terrier Mixed Breed (Medium)

Male, Adult

Mesquite, TX

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Sawyer, an American Staffordshire mix that was picked up by one of our officers and brought to the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 5/24. Sawyer weighs 54 pounds and is approx 1 1/2 years old. He has a chill personality, is calm and gentle. He is cautious and uneasy in the shelter environment. He's timid and nervous and is a work in progress. We will continue to work with him to help him feel more confident, comfortable and trusting. He seems to want to be friends as he is a-ok with his soft smooth fur being petted and someone sitting close and interacting with him. He very much enjoyed being in the yard and rolling around in the soft grass. However, he was more than ready to go back inside perhaps indicating he has lived as an indoor dog and that is his preference. We think all of our dogs would live their best life being inside with their people. He did his business as soon as he entered the yard. Sawyer walks well on a leash. He quite enjoys treats and takes them nicely. Will you assist Sawyer in having his stay at the shelter be a brief one?

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

This sweet girl has gotten the seal of approval from one of our staff members. When I asked about Franny he said," She's a really great dog!" Franny is a one-year-old 60 pound, brindle and brown and white terrier pittie Staffordshire that arrived at the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 7/1 as a stray. I agree with a staff member that she is a wonderful girl. She's a friendly, tailwagging girl. She's well behaved and does not jump on you. She sits on command but not for treats or at least not for the ones I had. She wasn't interested in them. She investigated the yard and then when I brought her in she investigated the laundry room indicating she's very curious an alert. She's outgoing and the right mix of being playful and calm. She stays close seeking affection. When I sat down she came to me and seem to enjoy being petted and having her ears scratched. She sniffed other dogs but seemed to be indifferent to them. She did her business out in the yard and it appeared that she had held it for a long time. She does have a very strong pull on the leash. She knows where she wants to go. She could be trained not to do this, but you need to keep in mind that she's strong. You can see she's got a stocky solid build. She told me she wants to be an inside dog mostly and be able to curl up next to her new owners during family time.

Mesquite, TX

Story

Zane is a social butterfly. He loves everyone! He's a two-year-old 46 pound blue/white American Staffordshire that arrived at the Mesquite shelter as a stray on 7/9. A happier guy you'll never meet. He's full of zest and has an abundance of kisses to offer you. When I took him out of his kennel, I didn't think he'd ever stop wiggling and his tail doesn't stop wagging! He seeks affection and stays close so he won't miss out on your attention. He sits for treats. He's so motivated by treats it was very difficult to take pictures of him standing. Every time I tried to take a photo of him he would sit in anticipation. That means he should be very easy to train. He could use some manners training on learning to take a treat gently. He did his business when he got out into the yard. He wiggled and waggled meeting other dogs. He had a semi- strong pull on the leash. He's curious, alert, happy, friendly, well mannered, and affectionate. He definitely wants to please. He's what we call the whole package. Since he doesn't jump on you, he should do well with children. He wants to be an inside dog where he can chill with his new family. He would love to cuddle up on the couch with you.

King

American Staffordshire Terrier Pit Bull Terrier

Male, Adult

Dallas, TX

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs special attention, House-trained, Declawed, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

(Dallas, Texas - Foster/Adopter desperately needed) King truly needs a hero, and we know that people with generous and kind hearts are out there. King is a playful guy, about 4.5 ~5 y & 40-45 lbs, so loving and content with whatever affection you'd give him. (a couple of videos in the Comment) King was abandoned and left alone in a small backyard run/kennel for 4 years exposed to all weather elements and confined in isolation and loneliness. We were so heartbroken seeing him carrying his bowl panting alone in the heat and dirt last summer, so Angie rescued him. Yet, without a foster, King's been living in a crate at a boarding facility for a year, and we desperately want him to have a chance to learn and enjoy living in a home! King's had several training sessions at the boarding facility, learned some basic commands and to trust humans, and is especially smitten by ladies. King's now a happy guy and loves loves the attention (& treats, of course). King enjoys a quiet life with NO other animal, being with humans, and feeling the breeze and sunlight on his face. King's content with carrying and chewing his toys by himself without the bother of the world. We really believe that a soul who suffered years of neglect and desolation deserves an understanding person/family to love him, and King'd give absolute devotion in return. King needs to be the only dog, is fixed, crate and house trained, and shots up to date. Please let us know if your home has a warm spot for King (for foster, Angie's Friends will provide everything that King needs). July 26, 2024, 12:03 am
