DORY - BOXER / STAFFORDSHIRE BULL TERRIER / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Boxer / Staffordshire Bull Terrier / Mixed. Meet Dory – The Sweetheart You’ve Been Waiting For! Dory is a gorgeous one year old Boxer/Staffy mix with red hair and bright green eyes. She and her brother were saved from a high kill shelter at ten weeks old and immediately rushed to a veterinary hospital where they stayed for over two months, recovering from a number of shelter borne illnesses. Babies that small often don’t survive the shelter environment. She has been in foster since her recovery as a loyal companion to her little brother who was the runt of the litter and needed his big sister to help heal, grow and thrive. Now that he is well and in a home of his own, she is available for adoption and looking for her perfect forever home! This girl is SUPER smart. She LOVES to learn and would thrive with someone who has the time to spend with her, teaching her new skills, maybe even a service dog in waiting. She LOVES other dogs and has a vocal rough and tumble playstyle, so may be better suited to a larger dog as a companion. She loves her toys, LOVES to run and play, and entertains herself all day with her foster companions. When she is very happy after a walk or a meal, she likes to throw herself on her back with her legs in the air and sing. Lots of WOO WOOs! She is extremely vocal and makes a ton of entertaining noises. She is loud when she plays with her friends. Not much of a barker though. Unfortunately, her Jack Russell foster brother has taught her to want to chase cats, although she never showed any interest before he arrived. While she has not lived with children, she is always interested in meeting all people and loves everyone she’s ever come in contact with. She walks nicely on the leash, is house trained, doggy door trained and LOVES car rides. She is good in her seatbelt and harness in the car. She knows sit and wait, and she comes with one week of board and train with our favorite trainer (Redemption Tails) so that she is setup for guaranteed success in her new home. She will go to train when she is adopted so that her new adopter can attend one or two of her lessons to ensure a happy homecoming. She’s on the hunt for her forever family—a place where she can share her cuddles, full body wags, and endless love. Interested in adopting this pet?
