Otter Staffordshire Bull Terrier Seattle, WA

Animal Profile: Sea Otters are described as intelligent, goofy, curious, gregarious and they are undeniably on the shortlist of most adorable animals. This land Otter is the same, for all of the above! Otter is an estimated 2-year-old, 50 lb Staffordshire Terrier who originally came into the overcrowded Stockton, California animal shelter as a stray in October. Upon first arriving in Seattle, he was lacking manners and unable to understand boundaries. With the help from his foster mom and local trainer Gina Cooley of Double Down Dog Training, he's made amazing progress! Otter comes with a 5 week Board and Train under his belt so he is very well trained - he is house and crate trained, is a perfect gentleman on leash and is friendly with both dogs and people. He is fairly independent when it comes to other dogs, does not have a strong interest in playing. He loves long leisurely walks, squeaky toys and a soft place to nap - in that order. He is also very food motivated! True to the bully breed, he can be pushy in play with toys and will need an owner with experience to help him manage. Otter has been friendly with kids, but he is looking for a home without them due to his behavior prior to training. He also needs a family committed to upholding his training so he can continue to be a squishy faced gentleman! Apply today to learn more about his handsome mug!
