American Staffordshire Terrier [Mix]

KANE is a 2-year old male, brown and white rednose AmStaff Terrier mix weighing 56 pounds. Kane has won the hearts of two dedicated shelter volunteers that love to take him for walks outside of the shelter. This is a big privilege because not all shelter dogs are permitted to be walked in the streets among the public. Only those that have exceptional behavior/temperament. Here's what one of the volunteers said – "When I first took Kane out for his walk on the street, the first thing someone said was: "Wow, what a beautiful rednose!". He really IS a beauty, isn't he? Perfectly proportioned, strong, confident, shiny coat ... you can't be a wallflower when you walk this guy in public! Everyone looks at him. Kane has excellent leash manners, saw many different types of dogs outside and didn't react at all, and accepts pets gracefully from his handler and from various strangers. His energy level is on the low side, so if you're looking for the type of dog who always has a head start on afternoon nap time, look no further. Kane is very eager to please and walks nicely not only on the leash but off the leash as well! His manners are exemplary and he heels on and off his lead. He looks to his handler for direction and eagerly seeks approval! This makes me think that maybe he has had some training in the past??? Very calm at first, he almost seems disinterested, but after about 15 minutes he really begins to bond with his handler and loves to give hugs and kisses. Kane is also great with other dogs. He assumes the play position -- inviting other dogs to play with him and greets them with a happy wag of his tail.
