TJ American Staffordshire Terrier Mix Dallas, TX

TJ is such a great dog. He is approximately 3 yrs. old and loves people. His excited state when seeing people he knows is to nip them on their fingers to get attention which could be alarming to small children therefore we believe he would do best with older children who would not be startled with this form of affection. He does know the "sit" command and that helps to calm him down a little. We believe he is a Staffordshire Terrier mixed with perhaps a boxer. He is currently fostered where he has to stay outside so we don't know if he is house trained. He does have a large outside chain link kennel he stays in at night which has a designated area for relieving himself and he does use that area so we feel he would be easy to house train. He isn't a big marker outside so we think that would not be a big issue inside the house but he would need to be watched to correct that issue should it arise. He gets along with most dogs and has a best friend "Sofie" who he runs and plays with and they are in kennels next to each other. We believe he would do best with a female dog since we already know he does so well with Sofie who is a girl. We don't know how he is with cats. Because our adoption process includes a home visit for a yard check, he is available for adoption in the immediate DFW area only. He is neutered, current on his vaccinations and heartworm tested and micro chipped. If you are seriously interested in meeting TJ outside our adoption events you may email us for a questionnaire to fill out. If it looks like your home would be a good match for TJ we can set up a meet and greet. His adoption fee is $150.
