Petey | Adult | Staffy's Story

Petey was found as a stray, living in full survival mode and fending for himself. Now that he’s safe, his true personality is shining through. He is spunky, playful, fun, and genuinely hilarious. Petey loves to run, play, and horse around, but the moment you stop to give him pets or a hug, he completely calms down. Affection is his favorite thing. Petey is fully vetted and ready for adoption. He is the kind of dog who brings laughter, energy, and then settles into calm companionship once he knows he’s loved. Petey is available for adoption now. About Shining Light Animal Rescue (SLAR): SLAR specializes in urgent and emergency rescue cases—dogs who would not survive without intervention. When you adopt Petey, you are not only saving his life, but also making room for us to help the next dog in crisis. Adoption saves two lives.
