Description
Dog Breed: American Staffordshire Terrier. Hellooo, I'm Cujo, and I am 1.5 years old! After a rough start to life I'm looking for a family to show me what love looks like. Most of my life I was in a kennel and little kids would hit my cage so it may take some time to adjust to a crate again and its also the reason I would be more confident in a home with older children. I am shy at first but when you get to know me I'm a playful boy. I really like to play tug! I can play rough when I get really into it but I don't mean to hurt anyone and I will stop when told! Can you stop out and visit me and maybe give me a second chance to have a family who loves me.Give the shelter a call at (574) 267-3008 or email them at infoawlwarsaw if you have any questions about me! If not, stop by the shelter at 1048 S 325 E in Pierceton, IN 46562 to look at me! No appointments necessary!

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.
