American Staffordshire Terrier and Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption in Marion, Texas

Meet Boone 💙

Boone is one of the “Lucky Pups,” born on January 11th, and he’s every bit the blessing his name suggests. After getting a second chance alongside his siblings, Boone is now ready to find a forever home of his own.

The only boy in a litter of sisters, Boone has been learning social skills from day one—and it shows! This chunky little guy is equal parts cuddly and playful. He loves snuggling up with his foster mom and dad just as much as he enjoys a good wrestling match (though his sister Iris usually keeps him in check 😉).

Don’t let his serious photos fool you—Boone is a total goofball. His personality is growing every day, and he’s quickly becoming a fun, affectionate, and entertaining companion.

Boone currently weighs about 30 pounds and is growing fast. We expect him to be 60+ pounds full grown. His sister's DNA results show a mix of American Pit Bull Terrier, American Staffordshire Terrier, and Dogo Argentino —breeds known for their loyalty, intelligence, and loving nature. You can see their DNA results above and more photos and videos by visiting our website: GoodCatchDogRescue.org

Like most puppies, Boone is in his teething phase and especially enjoys using his “teefers.” He’s learning to redirect to toys and chews, and he’ll thrive with continued guidance. Because of this, he may do best in a home with slightly older children who understand puppy behavior. He sleeps soundly and without interruption throughout the night in his crate and has mastered being walked on a leash with a harness.

Boone is microchipped, current on flea, tick, and heartworm prevention, and fully vaccinated. He has not yet been neutered, as we allow time for natural growth and development. Puppies in our care who are 6 months or older are spayed or neutered through Good Catch; for younger puppies, this responsibility falls to the adopter.

At this young age, Boone will do best in a home where someone is around most of the day to provide structure, playtime, and companionship as he grows into a confident, well-adjusted dog.

We are based in Texas but adopt to multiple states—we’re committed to finding Boone the perfect match. We use trusted transport partners to safely deliver our pups to their forever homes.

The American Staffordshire Terrier, also known as the Amstaff, is a medium sized, muscular breed known for its loyalty and courage. Developed in the United States, they are intelligent and affectionate dogs, making them great family companions. With a distinctive short coat and strong build, American Staffordshire Terriers are often misunderstood due to their past as fighting dogs, but they are actually loving and playful pets when raised in a nurturing environment. They thrive on human interaction and are eager to please their owners.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.

We can't turn our heads, drive past and forget. We stop, we take home, we love and we care for...
