Princess

Princess is a 3-year-old American Staffordshire Terrier weighing 43 pounds, and she is ready to find her happily ever after.

This sweet girl came to us as an owner surrender after her owner became ill and fell on hard times. Through no fault of her own, Princess found herself in a shelter, and to say she is feeling overwhelmed is an understatement. She is very scared in this unfamiliar environment, but we know that underneath that uncertainty is a heart full of love just waiting to blossom in a home of her own.

And oh, what a sweetheart she is. Princess is the kind of girl who will become your permanent shadow. Wherever you go, she'll want to go, too. She'll follow you to the ends of the earth, melt right into your lap if you let her, and remind you every day that you are her favorite person. She even has the sweetest little grumble, almost as if she's saying, "Thank you!" when she's happy. And when it comes to taking treats, she is as gentle as they come.

Princess currently has a low-to-medium energy level. She knows how to sit on command and is VERY food motivated, which should make learning new things a breeze. Walking on a leash is still a mystery to her. She isn't quite sure where she's supposed to go, so she'll need a patient person to help her learn the ropes and build her confidence. With a little encouragement and some tasty treats, we think she'll catch on in no time.

Princess is reported to be dog friendly, too. This lovely girl recently raised a litter of puppies, and now it's finally her turn to be someone's baby. Her puppy-producing days are behind her, and she deserves to spend the rest of her life being spoiled, cherished, and loved. Compatibility with cats and children is unknown.

Princess will be available through our Foster-to-Adopt Program, meaning you can welcome her into your home while she completes her spay procedure. She is already vaccinated, heartworm negative, and microchipped. She is currently being treated for skin and ear infections. She can also gain some weight.

Princess just needs someone willing to give her a little time, a little patience, and a whole lot of love. We have a feeling that once she feels safe, she'll blossom into the most devoted, loving companion you could ever ask for.
