Spanky - Adoption Fee Reduced! American Staffordshire Terrier & Labrador Retriever Mix Sparta, WI

Meet Spanky! Spanky is a 4 (ish) year old male American Staffordshire Terrier mix who is looking for his new forever home! Spanky has had a couple of different homes in his life (through no fault of his own), and most recently his owner was unable to stay in their residence, which is why he was given up. He needs to be the only pet in his home.

This sweet muffin can be fearful/shy/timid in new environments and around new people, but it truly doesn't take him long to come around. He might prefer a home where there isn't a lot of stranger traffic coming and going all the time, but instead a quiet home with a small circle of people to call his own. Once he knows you and trusts you, he's all about you! He's affectionate, cuddly, playful and loves to go for walks and car rides with you. Spanky has shown quite a bit of fear around small children, so we are not planning to send him to a home with children.

Spanky is potty trained and crate trained, and knows Sit but would love to learn more! We are unsure as to how he does with small children, as his previous home was primarily adult. His new family should expect to take things slow, be patient with him and understand that he might not come out of his shell over night.

He could lose a few lbs, so a daily walk, hike or jog will greatly benefit him! If you're looking for a loving, well-mannered companion who appreciates the quieter life style, Spanky might be your next best friend!

Spanky is neutered and fully vaccinated. His adoption fee has been reduced to $50.00. We will schedule a time for you to meet Spanky after an adoption application has been approved. Please email us for an application at monroecountydogshelter@gmail.com
