Description
Dog Breed: Staffordshire Bull Terrier. I'm praying for a hail Mary Digging in my heals to save this one. Her family relocated back to overseas and abandoned her at the groomer. Affectively signing her death warrant because at the time it was believed she was 16 years old meaning little chance for adoption. Too many free puppies for anyone to choose her. Coco has been to the vet for a health screening and she did great. A slim 54 lbs Senior blood workup shows her to be in great health. She needs a dental cleaning and to have 1 tooth pulled. However the vet said based on her teeth it's believed she is 7 to 10 years old! Coco is currently with her foster mom Kathy who was the emergency contact at the groomer where Coco was abandoned. Coco traveled here from Ireland last October. She grew up in Ireland with dogs and a cat. Her foster mom has not seen her with other dogs and listed her as dog selective to be cautious. So probably best that she be the only dog. She's happy when meeting new people. Her dream is to find her own human companion who wouldn't mind cuddling up with a total love bug and would love to be your lap warmer. Coco is super eager to please. Very smart! She knows her basic commands and some fun tricks. She's very polite while walking on a leash. She loves to go for walks but doesn't consider herself to be high energy. Although, she is a squeaky toy connoisseur and could keep up with a puppy in this field.

Breed overview
Staffordshire Bull Terrier
A.K.A.: Stafford, Staffy, English Staffy, Staffie, Nanny Dog
Overview:
The Staffordshire Bull Terrier, affectionately known as a "Staffy," is a robust and agile breed originating from 19th-century England, bred for its strength and courage. Physically, they are compact and muscular, with a broad head, pronounced cheek muscles, and a short, smooth coat that comes in various colors. Despite their powerful appearance, Staffies are renowned for their affectionate and gentle nature, particularly towards children, earning them the nickname "nanny dog." They are intelligent, highly trainable, and thrive on human companionship, making them excellent family pets. Their relatively small size and moderate exercise needs mean they can adapt well to apartment living, provided they receive daily walks and mental stimulation. Generally a healthy breed, they can be prone to certain conditions like L-2-Hydroxyglutaric Aciduria (L2HGA), hereditary cataracts, and patellar luxation, so responsible breeding practices are crucial. With proper socialization and training, a Staffy will be a loyal, devoted, and entertaining companion.
