Keekee Staffordshire Bull Terrier & Pit Bull Terrier Mix Framingham, MA

Are you looking for a happy dog who is filled with delight for life? Read on to meet Keekee!

Keekee is a 51 pound female blue staffordshire terrier mix who is believed to be between four/ four and a half years old.

Keekee still has boundless energy--she was once clocked running alongside a snowmobile at about 30 mph! In addition to running fast in the snow, Keekee loves long walks, hikes, and doing any active activity. Keekee is happiest when she has an outlet for all of her energy and excitement.

Keekee is very affectionate with humans, loving them almost as much as activity. Even though she weighs 51 pounds she is quite certain she is a lap dog; she loves to cuddle! While Keekee always wants to snuggle on top of her people she's also content to nestle nicely next to, (but always touching!), her humans. She truly loves being around people, and we believe she'd be fine living with children who can handle her enthusiasm for being energetic. Keekee does not mind traveling in the car-she even seems to enjoy it (and has never gotten car sick)- so would make an ideal travel companion for a family who likes to explore New England's various woods and mountains.

Keekee is still working on her manners. She knows "sit", and without other distractions can "stay", but needs reinforcement that jumping on guests is not an appropriate greeting, and that fences are not there to test agility(as in, Keekee needs to learn that she's not in a race that measures how high and far she can jump). Keekee responds well to training and direction when people have the time and discipline to train her. Keekee walks nicely in a harness on a leash, however she can strongly pull the walker if she sees another dog. Keekee plays appropriately-but very physically-with other dogs at day care. She is also good with cats, she has made it her responsibility to lick every kitten in her foster home!

In a snapshot: Keekee is a dog with a zeal for life who would benefit from a cat-less family with an active lifestyle. If you enjoy outdoor activities and the joys(and challenges) of training, then Keekee may be a fit for you!
