Pit Bull Terrier and American Staffordshire Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption in Fairfield, Connecticut

MEET ME IN WARREN, RHODE ISLAND. I JUST MOVED HERE!
Howdy folks! I’m an easygoing, good-natured, big ol’ Terrier mix named Chopper. I’m young, about 1 year old, 80 lbs, and like many dogs in San Antonio, Texas, I was dumped in the median of a busy highway. It was terrifying to say the least, and bless my lucky stars when an incredibly brave lady dodged traffic on foot to save me. I was thrilled to see her and let her carry me back to her car, and she became my foster mom! Yep, I wasn't chipped or wearing a collar, so 4 Little Paws Rescue took me in. I am now neutered, chipped, and vaccinated, and ready to find my future!

Turns out I’m a teddy bear and make friends easily with everyone I meet... dogs and humans, only curious when I met a kitty cat, and I am gentle with a litter of puppies who live here. My foster mom says I’m a lover, not a fighter, and I’m even great with some of her “difficult” dogs because I’m so good-natured. I am affectionate and enjoy snuggling beside her when we relax on the couch watching TV. I know how to sit on command, and I LOVE dog toys. I am very well-behaved, fully housebroken, only bark to alert, and I taught myself how to use the doggy door by watching the other dogs. I love going for walks and road trips, and I am a very good listener, giving you my full attention when I'm spoken to. I’m such a good boy and ever so grateful to be safe and sound and loved. My future looks bright, and I am totally looking forward to meeting the lucky family who gets to adopt me and make me their forever dog! You can come over to meet me, but be prepared to fall in love and take me home!!
