Saffy – 6 year old female Staffordshire Bull Terrier
Saffy is a 6 year old female Staffordshire Bull Terrier who is very special we have to admit. She wins your heart totally. She knows all the tricks in the book; the coy look in her eyes, siding up to you. She is 18″ to the shoulder, has a beautiful head and face with a velvety rich coloured brindle fur so soft to touch. She loves company, but can be left .. but be prepared for her doing the bends on your return. She doesn’t like the rain or snow and needs persuasion to use the garden on such days, but has very good housetraining and holds despite. Saffy will use either an open dog bed or crate; a sofa or chair to relax in.
She understands house rules. We are looking for a situation where she is spoilt and inclusive in her family. Saffy can react when closed in a crate so this is not advisable for her except for travelling. She also is very excited with cats! Saffy is neutered, vaccinated and chipped.
Saffy is making a “slow but sure” recovery with her skin and fur and she has put on weight, but will drop it quickly in kennels so ideally her family would only use kennels in an emergency. She loves people and will accept dogs in her territory once introduced outside on neutral territory until she knows them. Saffy can react to ‘claiming food’, but not toys or other objects. So food needs awareness with other dogs and close management so Saffy doesn’t chose to manage the situation! She can play with humans sometimes as though they are dogs touching with her mouth, but clearly playing expressing fun and love. Only ever happens to people she loves. Saffy is a rescue favourite so only special families need apply!
Saffy is a slender frame brindle Staffie who has had many litters in her past. She mixes well with dogs outside, tends to put her paws on their back as a greeting inside her house. Very loving nature. She is nasally … a snorty Staffie but not barky! Only pet with close relationship with her owners like in the bedroom at night. Query past abuse by 10-17 year olds as very wary of them.
