Description
Dog Breed: American Staffordshire Terrier. Meet Molly – Waiting Since November 2022. After years in the shelter, Molly has been patiently waiting for her forever home since Nov 2022. This sweet, middle-aged girl is ready to finally find her person. Once she warms up, Molly becomes your little shadow—loyal, loving, and always nearby. She thrives in a structured home where she knows what to expect. Confident and strong-willed, Molly needs to be the only dog in the home, but in return, she’ll give you all of her love. She’s potty trained, kennel trained, and sleeps soundly at night. She enjoys toys, treats, and her daily walks—which are the highlight of her day. Despite being mellow and independent, she’s also playful and cuddly when invited onto the couch. Molly did have a suspicious growth diagnosed as malignant skin cancer, likely caused by sun exposure. She’ll need to wear a sun shirt when outside, but the good news is her recent X-rays show it hasn’t spread. If you’re an experienced dog person looking for a loyal companion—full of love, ready for adventures, and happiest curled up beside you—Molly might just be your girl. She is located in Southern California Interested in fostering or adopting Molly? Apply today

Overview:
The American Staffordshire Terrier, often affectionately called an "AmStaff," is a breed with a fascinating history, originating in 19th-century England and later refined in the United States. Physically, they are medium-sized, muscular, and agile dogs, known for their powerful build and distinctive wide smile. Their short, stiff coat comes in a variety of colors and patterns. In terms of temperament, AmStaffs are generally intelligent, confident, and highly loyal to their families. They possess a strong desire to please and can be quite affectionate. While they can make excellent family companions and often get along well with children, early socialization and consistent training are crucial due to their strength and inherent protective instincts. They are adaptable and can thrive in various living situations, including apartments, as long as they receive adequate daily exercise and mental stimulation. Health-wise, they are generally robust, but some individuals may be prone to hip and elbow dysplasia, as well as certain heart conditions.
