American Staffordshire Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption in Cincinnati, Ohio

Meet Maxie!

Maxie is an 8 1/2 yo, female, bully mix looking for a human to call her own.

Maxie loves to be with her people more than anything. While she doesn't seek out laps, she definitely wants to be within paw's reach at all times. She always finds the best spot at bed time and may make you work to get those blankets back!

Maxie is very expressive and vocal. She is an exceptional communicator; whether it's to go outside or simply asking for playtime, Maxie uses her voice and huffs to get her point across.

Maxie is housebroken. She does not like being crated and will do best in a home that allows long naps on the couch while the humans are away. She does get anxious at the vet and appreciates some pre visit medication to be her best self. Maxie is currently on a Hills Science Diet for sensitive stomach and doing great with it.

We know the perfect family is out there for Maxie to ride shot gun with for pup cups!
