Molly - American Staffordshire Terrier and Pit Bull Terrier Dog for Adoption in Citrus Heights, California

WHAT IS YOUR NAME?
Hello! My name is Molly!

ARE YOU A BOY OR A GIRL?
I am a beautiful girl.

HOW OLD ARE YOU?
We are estimating that I was born sometime in 2022.

WHAT BREED ARE YOU?
I am a Staffy Mix.

HOW MUCH DO YOU WEIGH?
I weigh 60 pounds.

WHAT DO YOU LOOK LIKE?
So gorgeous! I have a beautiful rust-colored coat with lots of fun white markings. I have a perfect white stripe between my eyes and four cute white socks, and you will be mesmerized by my dark brown smoky eye markings... Tell me, have you ever seen so much cuteness in one dog??

WHAT DO YOU LIKE TO EAT?
Ummm.... Everything? Is that even a real question? If you offer, I accept!

WHAT KIND OF PERSONALITY DO YOU HAVE?
I am sweet as the day is long. I still have some puppy energy when it comes to playtime, but for the most part I am really chill and I love to cuddle for hours!

DESCRIBE YOUR PERFECT DAY:
Oh, that is easy... give me a ball and I will play until I drop. And then lots of cuddles on the couch. As long as there is some food sprinkled in along with the cuddling and playing, I am the happiest girl in the world.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE TOY?
I love all toys! If there is a ball around, I will play with it, or just carry it around, until someone trades some food for it. I love to play with a Kong, too. Stuff that with peanut butter, yogurt, my food ... yes, please!

DO YOU KNOW ANY TRICKS?
I am a work in progress. So far, I have mastered sit. But I am very food motivated, so if you are up for it, we can work on some tricks together!

WHAT SCARES YOU?
So far, I am pretty fearless. The fireworks on the Fourth of July did not even bother me!

HAVE YOU BEEN AROUND CHILDREN?
I have not been around children yet.

DO YOU LIKE CATS?
I have not been around cats since coming into the rescue.

HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT OTHER DOGS?
I have a foster brother that I absolutely love. We have so much fun together. Safe and slow introductions, of course, but I am a dog-friendly gal!

IF YOU COULD BE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD, WHERE WOULD IT BE?
With a family that loves me!

HOW IS YOUR HEALTH?
I am doing great! No issues to report!

WHO DO YOU LIVE WITH IN YOUR FOSTER HOME AND WHO IS YOUR CLOSEST COMPANION?
I live with my foster mom, her roommate, and Elvis the resident dog. I definitely love my foster mom the most. She took me in when I needed a safe space, feeds me, plays with me, and is teaching me what it feels like to be loved.

WHERE DO YOU HANG OUT WHEN YOU ARE HOME ALONE?
I do really well in my crate.

WHERE DO YOU SLEEP?
I sleep with foster mom and foster dog brother, Elvis.

DO YOU LIKE WALKING ON A LEASH?
I do! I need to work on my leash manners, though. The world out there is all so exciting and interesting, I just need to see and smell it all!

DO YOU HAVE ANY NOT SO GREAT HABITS THAT WE SHOULD KNOW ABOUT?
Really, the only less-than-perfect thing about me is that I pull on leash too much. We can work on that together, right?

ARE YOU HOUSE TRAINED (DO YOU GO POTTY OUTSIDE)?
I am! I have not had any accidents at all since coming into my foster home!

DO YOU LIKE WATER?
I have not had an opportunity to partake in any water adventures yet. I am pretty active and adventurous, though, so I am thinking we might have some fun at the beach or a lake or a pool... we can try, right?

WHAT DO YOU LOVE ABOUT YOUR FOSTER FAMILY?
My foster mom is taking such good care of me. I am so grateful that she took me in when I needed her. And I love playing and cuddling with my foster brother.

IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE TO TELL YOUR FUTURE ADOPTER?
I am SO excited to get started on this next—best—phase of my life! We will have so much fun together. I would love to go on adventures and maybe play with a dog friend, and I hope you have room on your couch for me when I get snuggly! Will you take me home with you?

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.
