Description
Dog Breed: American Staffordshire Terrier (medium coat). Charlie is a handsome, gentle soul with the sweetest eyes and a soft heart to match. He can be a little shy at first, but give him a bit of time (and a few tasty treats!) and youâll see his affectionate, loyal side start to shine through. Charlie has lived with kids before and done well, though because heâs sensitive and reserved, he may feel most comfortable in a home with older, calmer children who can respect his need to warm up at his own pace. If youâre looking for a gentle dog to bond with and help blossom into his best self, Charlie might just be your perfect match! *I am a restricted breed in Denver. If you are a Denver resident, you must also purchase a Breed-Restricted Permit for $30.

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.
