ARTIMUS AKA ARTIE - AMERICAN STAFFORDSHIRE TERRIER / LABRADOR RETRIEVER / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: American Staffordshire Terrier / Labrador Retriever / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 200. Artie was born on August 1, 2022, with a big ball of energy or "zoomies". He is a little shy/nervous at first, but after a few moments of introductions, he warms up and LOVES people once he feels safe. He is slightly skiddish/standoffish around men when he first meets them (unsure of his past). Arti would need a big backyard for his big ball of energy. He would also do best in a household with older kids or no kids at all, due to his high energy and slightly rough play, which may not be suitable for small children. He gets along well with other dogs, but he tends to steal their toys and play fight with them. Artie had a few Basic Obedience classes (through Animal Behavior College students and with Kristie's Kritters) when he was a pup. His favorites? - Running around the backyard - Playing with chew-proof toys - Laying on the couch after a long play session - Snuggling up after a long day and believes he is a lap dog and makes it very hard to move him because he's so comfortable - Sunbathing on a hot day His dislikes? - Nail trims, but will sit through a few before pulling away - Loud noises (will bark at cars passing by outside while inside) - Skiddish of getting into cars, sometimes front legs have to be propped up, or he has to be completely picked up - Squirrels, of course, he has to chase them no matter what Artimus weighs about 65lbs and is neutered, has all his shots, heartworm negative, dewormed, and microchipped." Since Artie is a medium-sized dog, we recommend a home with a fenced-in backyard and/or plans for daily exercise and socialization.
