Story
Hi, my name is Manny, I am 100% American Staffordshire ( my parents did a DNA test on me). I am a 3 year old neutered male. I am stunningly handsome (so I'm told) Other animals make me anxious, so I would need to be the only pet. I love to be with my people. I love to go for rides, play ball/chase, I love to go for walks but sometimes get reactive when I encounter other dogs/cats. I am extremely strong so I need an experienced large dog owner, even though I am under 70#'s my Dad says I'm as strong as a horse. My Dad is not as healthy as he use to be so it's difficult for him to give me the excercise I need/want. I love people big, small, young and old. I'm house trained. I'm very gentle when eating or taking treats. I can sit, give you my paw lay down, I am very treat motivated. I watch the Animal Planet when my parents aren't home. I love stuffed, antlers and ball to play with. My parents want to find someone or a family that can offer me more activity than they can. Wish me luck
