Rudolph ("Ruddy") is a sweet, affectionate, and smart dog. He loves to cuddle, relax on the couch, and food/treats. He is very food-driven and loyal which makes him easy to trian. He loves people and warms up to them quickly. He is crate trained and sleeps in his crate throughout the night. He is fully house trained and can free-roam the house without any accidents (potty, chewing, etc.) even if unattended. He is generally leash trained though needs time to perfect it as some times he gets distrated with city smells. Since being in foster care he has never barked, chewed anything in the house, or grazed food. He thrives on structure - currently getting walked in the morning, mid-day and night time with meals after each walk (he's malnourished so we're working on getting his weight up!). He does like to play bite and is slowly learning playing is with toys and on a schedule. He would be a great addition to a family - staffordshires are great family dogs.

The application can be found at WaldosRescue.org and once you are approved to adopt you will be put in touch with the foster to see if it’s a good match. We are a RESCUE not a shelter. We conduct veterinary and personal reference checks during the application approval process. We are unable to contact every applicant for every dog. We will select the best applicant for each dog, based on the dogs needs.
