Description
Dog Breed: American Staffordshire Terrier. Our handsome Hank is now available for adoption! Weighing in at 84 lbs, this gentle low rider is currently on a weight loss journey—and we’re here to support him every step of the way! Hank came to us as a stray and sadly was never reclaimed. He may have been loved at one point, but now he finds himself at the shelter longing for a home of his own. We estimate Hank is about 8 years old, and he has been sweet with everyone he meets. With weight-management food and frequent, short walks, he’s already making progress and has lost 3 lbs! His ideal home will continue supporting his journey toward a healthier, happier version of himself. Hank is clean in his kennel, easygoing, and has truly been a pleasure to have around. Now he just needs someone to give this sweet senior boy the home he deserves. ❤️ Adoption by appointment only with an approved adoption application. Please go to .easelnj/adopt to submit an adoption application. Someone will be in touch within 48 hours.

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.
