Male Dog, American Staffordshire Terrier
American Staffordshire Terrier / American Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (Short Coat)
Description:
NAME: Evan Peters AGE/GENDER: DOB is 4.22.22; male BREED: Pit mix (Per Embark he is 50% pit and 50% staffie with the recessive fluffy gene) TEMPERAMENT: Sweet and friendly but exciteable. HOUSE TRAINING: He is doing well when taken out on a regular schedule. CRATE TRAINING: Good! He sleeps and eats in his crate. OTHER DOGS: Good! He is fostered with dogs of all ages and sizes and does well with them all, even bossy little old terriers. CATS: Good! But he can be a little fixated. CHILDREN: Dog-respectful children, 16 and older ADOPTION DONATION: $550.00 HEALTH: Evan came to us in rough shape. He was severely underweight from starvation and had a broken left front leg with puncture wounds. Fortunately, while with us, his leg healed and did not require amputation! Dogs with broken bones will have arthritis in that area as they age, so they should be on a joint diet now that includes omega oils as well as glucosamine/chondroitin. He is altered, microchipped, flea treated, and dewormed. Your adoption donation goes toward the cost of this vet care as well as transportation and general care costs. HISTORY: Motley Zoo Animal Rescue was asked to find him a great forever family and that is exactly what we plan to do! NOTES FROM FOSTER HOME: Evan is a loving boy who is learning manners. He greets all things exuberantly. People. Dogs. Everything. He loves to nibble on you when he's happy, almost like reciprocating pets. He is a sensitive little guy and does not always understand why other dogs may not like his over-enthusiastic greetings. He is very energetic and very excited about life. He is learning not to jump and settle. While he is a little bit of a wild and crazy guy, he DOES snuggle. A lap is an invitation for him to crawl in. He loves to be with you and will actually lie next to you quietly while you work or watch TV... once he gets his zoomies out. Despite his rough beginning, this boy is full of love and happiness. Every day is a new day for him and he looks forward to it with arms wide open. He ready to seize the day and see what adventures await him. If you're looking for someone who is seriously optimistic, he's that kind of dog! He is leash trained and has training in basic obedience. All dogs adopted from Motley Zoo come with a leash and either a Martingale collar or a harness, depending on each dog's particular needs. Welcome to Motley Zoo Animal Rescue. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit animal rescue organization that is run by volunteers. Motley Zoo does not have a brick and mortar shelter location. Instead, all our rescue animals are cared for in private foster homes where the animals receive one-on-one care and attention in a home environment until permanent placement is found. Please email [email protected] and request an adoption application and we will work toward approving you as an adopter with our rescue so that we can set a time for you to meet!
