American Staffordshire Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption in Elburn, Illinois

Meet BonBon — the squishy little sweetheart you didn’t know you needed!

At just 9 weeks old, this adorable male American Staffordshire Terrier mix is already mastering the art of being the goodest boy. BonBon is equal parts playful goofball, cuddle expert, and professional kiss-giver. He’s the kind of puppy who can wrestle with the big dogs one minute and melt into your lap for snuggles the next.

BonBon is already sleeping through the night in his crate like a champ and heads outside to potty as soon as he wakes up. He’s still a baby, so regular potty breaks help keep him on track — especially because he’s usually too busy having fun to remember he has important business to do!

This chunky little guy loves everyone he meets. He adores kids, enjoys playing with his puppy brother and large foster dog sibling, and is curious but respectful around cats. Just be warned: he’s still convinced toes are chew toys, so slippers may be your new best friend for a while.

If you’re looking for a happy, affectionate, all-around lovable puppy to grow up with your family, BonBon is ready to steal your heart (and probably your spot on the couch too).

Our standard adoption fee is $465. We offer a $15 discount for adopters who pay by cash or check, making the adoption fee $450.

The adoption fee includes spay/neuter when age appropriate at one of our participating veterinarians, age-appropriate core vaccinations, fecal test, deworming, current on flea and tick preventative, and microchip.

To ensure the best match for both our dogs and adopters, we require a fully completed adoption application, a phone interview, and a meet-and-greet with the entire household. Applications will not be reviewed unless fully completed.

Submitting an application does not guarantee adoption and does not obligate you to adopt; it simply allows us to begin the review process.

To request an application or for additional details, please email adopt@safehavendogsIL.org
