Delilah American Staffordshire Terrier Mix Lenoir, NC

Meet Delilah!! She's the last of her litter and patiently waiting for the family God is planning for her. Will that be you?

With a guesstimated birthday in Jan. 2021, Delilah weighs about 45 lb.

Delilah is house-trained when kept on a regular schedule. She's comfy in a 42" crate and will sleep peacefully all night, once the household settles down. Until then she wants to be where her people are.

Delilah is a bit nervous in a car, but enjoys going on adventures with her people. She is good with most dogs - growly dogs are seen as disrespectful so not favorites - and will vocalize with happy growls when playing. She does well with the housecats in her foster home, but will chase if they'll run.

This sweet girl will love going on long walks with you & behaves well on a leash without pulling, however, she won't pass up the opportunity to chase a rabbit or squirrel. She is leery of unknown dogs. When she's on the greenway with her foster and they encounter an oncoming dog, they just step to the side and Delilah politely lets them pass.

She's very good indoors, never makes a mess, & understands the command "go" to leave the kitchen so she's not under foot.

Whether dogs / puppies come in as strays or owner surrenders, we make our best guess as to birthdate and breed.

For adult dogs, our adoption fee covers a standard canine vaccine, a rabies vaccine, and deworming if recommended by our vet. Adult dogs will also have current heartworm test. For puppies over the age of 14 weeks, our adoption fee covers the first 3 puppy vaccines. If the puppy is still in our care at 16 weeks, we will also provide the rabies vaccine.

A vet reference is required only if you are adopting an intact dog over 6 months of age (or the age our attending veterinarian recommends for spay/neuter) to ensure future altering of the dog. A refundable spay/neuter deposit is required for intact dogs/puppies.
