Story
Meet Sissy, the most delightful Staffy mix with a heart as big as her smile. Weighing in at 42 pounds and 4 years young, Sissy is the definition of canine charm. With her warm personality, fun-loving spirit, and friendly nature, she's sure to steal your heart from the moment you meet her. We know her very well here at the rescue group, as she is one of the longest dogs we've had in foster for over a year and a half. But now we are cheering her on, in the search of finding her forever. And great news - a sponsor has agreed to pay for her adoption fee, so all that's left if for you to take this gal home! Sissy's journey hasn't been without its challenges, but her resilience and unwavering spirit continue to shine through. Once a cherished member of a loving family, Sissy was given away when they fell on hard times, leading to mistreatment by her new owner. Thankfully fate intervened, and a very pregnant Sissy found herself in the loving arms of the Knox Whitley Shelter in Corbin, KY. There, she received the care and compassion she desperately needed, and welcomed a litter of precious puppies into the world. From there, Sissy's journey led her to the kind embrace of a foster family in NJ, where she's now thriving more than ever. Her gentle nature and playful demeanor make her a favorite among adults, kids and canines alike - however a home without cats is ideal. Sissy is housebroken, spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and an all around well-behaved little lady. She is so much more than a rescue dog—she's a testament to a beacon of hope and the power of love. With her spirit overflowing with joy, Sissy is ready to find her forever family; one that will cherish her unconditionally and provide her with the care she deserves.
