Description
Dog Breed: Staffordshire Bull Terrier (medium coat). Meet Kaia â your new favorite adventure buddy! Kaia arrived at the shelter on 3/4/25 and has been patiently waiting for a home where she can truly shineâand trust us, this girl knows how to shine. Kaia isnât just fun⦠she is the party. Always ready to go, always up for the next activity, and happiest when sheâs on the move with her people. Sheâs a smart cookie who already knows cues like sit, paw, drop it, and wait, takes treats gently, and is eager to learn more. She can get a little enthusiastic on leash (life is exciting, after all!), but her motivation and focus make her a great candidate for continued training with an active adopter. If you like fetch, Kaia loves fetch. Actuallyâloves might be an understatement. She has a huge ball and toy drive, will reliably bring the toy right back, drop it, and stare you down like, âOkay⦠throw it again.â Her passion for play even earned her a feature on a local radio station, where staff shared stories of Kaia happily lounging around, rolling her ball from person to person to keep the game going. Iconic behavior. Kaia rides reasonably well in the car, enjoys being out and about, and thrives with consistent interaction and structure. Sheâs affectionate, people-oriented, and would do best as the center of attention in her home. Sheâs selective with her dog friends and is happiest when she can focus all her love, intelligence, and personality on her people. Kaia would be an amazing match for an active person or household thatâs always on the moveâsomeone looking for a fun, engaged, go-anywhere companion whoâs ready to turn everyday life into an adventure. If youâre looking for a dog who brings the energy, the joy, and the fun⦠Kaia is ready to roll.

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.
