Description
Dog Breed: American Staffordshire Terrier. Meet Atlas a 4 year old pit who came to us when his owner lost his home. Atlas lived with a young Doberman and they did great together. Atlas is use to being in a kennel while his owner is at work, so crate trained! Atlas has great manners and listens well. He is playful and loving. Atlas hasn't been around lots of kids that we know of but we believe he would do just fine with respectful kids. Knowing that Atlas is not a fan of vaccines, so he probably wouldn't love a kid poking him with things. Atlas enjoys his walk and the attention of the staff. With his cute face he can make any of us stop to love on him and he just eats up all of the attention. Come meet Atlas and give him his forever home.Give the shelter a call at (574) 267-3008 or email them at infoawlwarsaw if you have any questions about me!

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.
