Diesel's Story

Meet Diesel. Diesel is approximately 6 months old and is thought to be an American Staffordshire Terrier-type mix. <br/><br/>Diesel is such a sweet and sensitive boy. Unfortunately he experienced some neglect in his previous setting, and spent a lot of his time tied to a tree outside with no shelter. We're told he was able to come inside at night and was used to sleeping in a crate, but Diesel was not provided with any training, so his new family should be open to teaching him all kinds of things :) <br/><br/>Diesel has lived around other dogs, cats and children and is friendly with all. It's important to remember that Diesel is also a "Child" and maybe jumpy or excited, so as always, adult owners should supervise during playtime and all other interactions while Diesel learns the basics. We think he'd prefer a home with other pets, but should be OK as an only dog as long as he's included in other activities to make him feel loved and happy. <br/><br/>Anyone adopting a young dog should expect things like providing exercise, play time, enrichment, training, routines, boundaries, socialization, and of course cuddles! Because Diesel is still a puppy, his family should expect to go through puppy stages like potty training, chewing, counter-surfing, etc. That being said, Diesel is incredibly sensitive and smart, and should learn the new rules quickly! <br/><br/>If you have another dog who might want a playmate, or you're someone looking to adopt a young dog that you can train and bond with, Diesel would love to meet you and become a part of your family! We are doing all meet n' greets BY APPOINTMENT ONLY after an adoption application has been generally approved: <br/>https://monroecountydogshelter.com/apply-adopt.html<br/><br/><br/>Diesel will be neutered & fully vaccinated prior to adoption. His adoption fee is $200
