DIESEL - HOUND / AMERICAN STAFFORDSHIRE TERRIER / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Hound / American Staffordshire Terrier / Mixed. Meet Diesel – A Young-at-Heart Senior Looking for His Forever Home Don't let the gray around his muzzle fool you—Diesel may be 8 years old, but he still has plenty of energy and a playful, puppy-like spirit! This handsome Hound/Pit Bull mix came to us as a stray in heartbreaking condition. He was emaciated when he arrived, but with lots of good food and care, he's been steadily gaining weight and continues to fill out beautifully. Now he's ready to find a family of his own. Diesel is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on his vaccines. He's an affectionate, loving dog who enjoys being with people, but he's still working on his manners. Diesel would benefit from training to help him learn boundaries and appropriate behavior. When he gets overly excited, he can become pushy and mouthy, so we feel a home with children ages 10 and older would be the best fit. We'd also like any children in the home to come to the meet-and-greet to make sure everyone is comfortable together. We are unsure how Diesel does with other dogs, so a dog meet is required before adoption. He is also very pushy around cats, so if a home has feline friends, extreme caution and very slow introductions are essential. Diesel has been through a lot, but he hasn't let that take away his loving personality. He's looking for a family that will give him patience, guidance, and plenty of opportunities to burn off his energy while enjoying the life he deserves. If you're looking for a loyal companion with a big heart and an even bigger personality, Diesel may be waiting just for you.Interested in adopting?
