Description
Dog Breed: American Staffordshire Terrier (short coat). Khloe is a 9 1/2 year old (DOB: 4/1/16), female American Staffordshire Terrier. We rescued Khloe from Amarillo-Panhandle Humane Society in 2017, when she was a year old. She is a good looking, white with black spotted dog, who is medium in size. Due to a recent accident, Khloe lost her back left leg. She didn't let that stop her one bit! She is active and playful. Khloe might be a bit aggressive with other dogs, so should probably be an 'only dog'. We don't know if she is housebroken. Will certainly need instruction in a new home environment, as she has been at the shelter awhile. This is not a dog for a home with young children. Do come visit Khloe at the Amarillo SPCA. She needs a loving home. Our location is 11901 S. Coulter. Phone number for our shelter is 806-622-0555.

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.
