American Staffordshire Terrier and Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption in Oxford, Michigan

Betty was such a good girl for her photo shoot, we don't think she can take a bad picture, and those brown eyes... She is estimated to be about a year old and weighs 39 pounds.

Meet Betty, a stunning young brindle-coated lady with the sweetest, most gentle demeanor. She's a bit of a shy girl, but under that timid exterior lies a heart yearning for connection and a playful spirit just waiting to come out. Betty just needs that special someone to show her the way. She is slowly starting to show her true playful side and curiosity, especially when toys are involved! Maybe her new home will have a basket of toys for her, we think Betty would love that! With her good manners and well-behaved nature, she is going to make some family a wonderful best friend. What Betty truly desires is a patient, understanding leader who can offer her the time and guidance she needs to build her confidence and help her feel safe. She will need a home where any children are at least 8 years old with her shy nature. Betty would love it if you came to meet her, she is dreaming of a family who will love her forever.

If there is another nice doggy sibling in the home, Betty would love to meet them. She has a friendly approach with other dogs and seems very tolerant of puppy shenanigans too, one of the dogs she met was our Husky puppy Maggie, who was full of silly puppy play. But mostly Betty seeks attention from the people in the room.

If you are interested in Betty and are at least 21 years old, please come to our kennel during business hours, make an appointment, or fill out an application at k9stray.com and an adoption counselor will be in touch. We look forward to helping you find your new best friend!

*Please check your lease agreements for breed/weight restrictions prior to applying. We also do not do cat testing, so we do not know how a dog will do with cats. Not all dogs are available to go home on the same day you first meet.*

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.
