Details

Story

Grey is such a bro. Grey is a male American Staffordshire terrier that weighs 61 pounds. He is estimated to be 2 years old. Grey was found as a stray and no one claimed him. He was very thin upon intake and just plain sad. In the few weeks that he has been with us, he has eaten and gotten much needed TLC. He has gained some weight and is overall a body wiggle pro. He is very strong on leash and would benefit from general obedience and manners. He is a full upper body workout. He will work your core, shoulders, back and patience. His giant blockhead is almost as big as his heart. He is very loving and friendly. He loves to be outside. A fenced in yard is ideal for Grey. He has a medium energy level. Because he was a stray, we don’t know anything about Grey’s background. He would prefer to be your one and only dog. Grey is available and is neutered, vaccinated, heartworm tested, and has a microchip. Please email dogadoptions@parmashelter.org and fill out an adoption application online to meet Grey. Grey`s adoption fee is $160. Grey is the type of dog that will gladly accompany you on the couch to watch movies. But when you get up to get a snack, you gotta find another spot to sit because he has taken over the whole couch. Such a bro. He can be adopted outside of Parma.

She's a very good dog, listens very well. Grandma passed and the family is selling the house, no one can take her. I can only have her in my tiny apartment for so long until I get introuble. I really don't want to have to take her to a shelter she doesn't deserve that. She ok with cats, she doesn't like them but tolerates them. She doesn't get along with other dogs that ive noticed. She only gets along with my mom's male rot mix. She sleeps in the bedroom with you with Door closed at night. Crated or confined in the kitchen when not home.
