Papi (Cross Post)'s Story

Papi is up for adoption or foster!! We would like to introduce you to the sweetest dog around...Papi! He is a 6-year-old Staffordshire Terrier who is looking for his very own home after living 5 of his 6 years in boarding under a local Lincoln rescue organization. When a few of us heard of Papi's situation we knew that we could not continue to allow him to live his remaining years in a cold kennel run. He is the most deserving sweet dog and needs a home to call his very own. Because Papi has not had socialization like a normal dog we decided to raise funds to pull him out of boarding and send him to behavioral training. He is currently in training and is doing so well and we are all so proud of the progress he has made. He wants to do good so badly and has been a very good student. He is currently learning leash training and he has been doing well with a fancy leash that has him all about being under control! He is also being muzzle-conditioned so he can safely interact with the other dogs at the training facility. Because we don't know a lot about how Papi is with other dogs this is the safest and best way for him to interact so we can see what needs to be worked on! Currently, Papi is learning impulse control and how to be a dog as he has not played with or interacted with any for the last 5 years. Papi will need a foster or adopter who will be dedicated to continuing his training going forward and who will be a strong leader for him! There must be no kitties in the house as he is not a fan and doesn't appreciate sharp kitty claws! Papi is also working on his social skills. We are in no way saying that he can never be with another dog, we are saying that under the right conditions (owner and demeanor of another dog) he may be compatible but that would be under the right circumstances. Currently, he has been controlled and has not shown major aggression but of course, we want to be completely safe as he is just learning how to make friends! We want his next home to be the last one he will ever need in his life! That being said...this is what you will get if you adopt Papi:<br/><br/>1- A forever best friend and sidekick, a devoted dog that will go on walks, runs, or hikes!<br/><br/>2- A snuggle buddy and couch potato.<br/><br/>3- A dog that will know that you saved his life and because of that he will be 100% dedicated to you.<br/><br/>4- Did I mention a snuggle buddy?<br/><br/>5- THE best hugger ever!<br/><br/>6- Last but not least...you will have given him what NO ONE else has stepped up to do...a life. A life with a warm couch and soft pets, an opportunity to roll in the grass and get belly scratches, a life outside a concrete floor, and a hard plastic bed. You will have saved his life!<br/><br/>If you are interested in adopting Papi or would like more information please email Tara at taraschmidt74@gmail.com. We would love to put you in touch with his personal trainer (and not the bodybuilding kind!) so you can see if Papi would be the perfect fit for you! Please feel free to check him out on Facebook...he is currently at S&B Kountry Kennels in Glenwood, IA. He is a fan favorite there and loves to show off his playfulness and the skills he has learned! They update frequently and you can follow his progress!...or better yet go out and meet him personally, he loves all the attention but you better bring the treats! I guarantee once you meet this kid...the deal will be done and he will steal your heart! Most of all we want to find Papi his forever home and only YOU can help make that happen! Please share far and wide and help get this boy a place to call his own!<br/><br/>Please Note: A Cross post designates that this dog is under the care & ownership of another rescue/shelter in Lincoln. If you are interested in adopting Papi, please contact Tara at taraschmidt74@gmail.com for any questions regarding Papi or to apply to adopt Papi. Muddy Paws Last Chance Rescue is not directly adopting this pet but helping broadcast them to a wider range of potential adopters.
