Description
Dog Breed: American Staffordshire Terrier. Clementine is as sweet as her name! She was found by animal control + community members running as a stray and took some convincing to get in the animal control vehicle. Unsure of her surroundings and in an unfamiliar place, Clementine was shut down. As she began to trust us her personality blossomed and we now see the goofy, spirited, spunky girl that she is! Clementine is great on leash and walks beautifully. At 80lbs she is large and can pull, but usually chooses not to. She is smart as can be and knows several basic commands. Being food motivated also helps because this girl will WORK for food. Training has been a breeze since she is both food and praise oriented. Clementine has met other dogs and done well. She plays with several other large dogs at the shelter, both male and female alike. Clementine has the most adorable ears that flop around and she has a faint resemblance to Scooby Doo! She is estimated to be about two years old and fully grown. She would thrive in a home with a patient handler who understands she can be nervous at times. She looks to her handler for guidance and reassurance and once she is comfortable she will be your best friend. Now Clementine enjoys jumping in the car for a ride and trying new things. She has such a sweet disposition, she just needs you! Apply to adopt this sweet girl and we know you won't be sorry!

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.
