Stevie - Super Sweet Boy! American Staffordshire Terrier Montclair, NJ

UPDATE!

This boy is a gem!! Stevie had his cataract surgery and is seeing for the first time in a very long time! He had been through the testing with the eye specialists and was deemed a candidate for the surgery, so we decided to go for it, and he's been a trooper.

Stevie is in foster and doing really well. From his foster:
Ideal home: The more the merrier! This guy loves attention. Preferred to have a yard for him to run in otherwise he will require more exercise.
Kids: He has shown nothing but love towards all ages of kids, he just wants to give them kisses!
Dogs: He is good walking and meeting dogs, he does get very excited and he wants to play rough. I believe he would be happy sharing a house with another dog as they could play together, he just needs to learn how to play with them and he has already shown much improvement in this category.
Cats: He is sweet with everything/everyone and he always wants to play with cats. He would need a cat who would be okay with his energy as he gets very excited.
Crate-trained: Yes, give him a fluffy bed and he will sleep wherever it is located!!
House trained: Yes
Other training: He is excellent at sit, he knows wait, due to his past medical needs he understands stairs and “watch” as I used these to tell him his surroundings. He is in the process of learning down. He knows paw and touch if your hand isn’t very far from him.
Leash Manners: He is very good on the leash but when he gets excited or smells something new he does like to pull, if you give him a clear strong tug back and say “enough” or “no pulling” he tends to be more gentle.
Personality: He LOVES exercising. His favorite would be hiking or a steady jog with a few breaks here and there for him to sniff around. He also loves long walks and a nice big yard to express his zoomies! This little guy is nothing short of hysterical, loving and sweet. He enjoys his naps when he is not exercising as well as sun bathing during the day. He does have quite an amount of energy but calms down nicely. He comes when called and when you whistle and when you want him to stop something. He honestly is the perfect all around dog - he is not a fan of water but loves to go for walk/runs in it - towel drying is his favorite part!!

Stevie may be anywhere between 5-7 years old, and about 60 lbs., he is in good shape. He is up to date with everything. For more information, info@pawsmontclair.org
