Description
Dog Breed: American Staffordshire Terrier (short coat). Please note, this pet is available for adoption but is NOT in the care of PAWS4you Rescue. If you are interested in adopting this pet, please use the contact information provided in the description below. Genius is a good dog, potty trained, leashed trained, he's getting better at off leash. He's great with kids and most dogs, he's selective with unneutered males. He's never been aggressive towards people, he loves to meet people, kiss, etc..... The reason why his owner is looking to rehome is because he has energy, and would probably benefit from someone who can take him for long walks, maybe even someone that likes to go running or jogging. He's not into playing with balls, which is the only way the owner can play with him due to the owner having knee issues... he loves to chase iguanas and can do that all day long. If you're interested in giving Genius a home, please contact Rick at 305-607-6609

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.
