Meet Emory Elegant, a 10-week-old Staffordshire Bull Terrier / Hound mix, weighing 10 pounds (as of 5/4/26). Full of style and grace, the ELEGANT litter found their way to us after their pregnant mom was found abandoned in Tennessee. If you're looking to add pomp and circumstance to your next soirée, look no further than these classy pups because elegance never goes out of style!

Emory's love for her humans is only eclipsed by her love of theatre. In fact, if she had a middle name, it'd be Shakespeare, because living with her will be as exciting as a Midsummer Night's Dream! Whether she's running around backstage or singing along with the chorus, Emory makes friends everywhere she goes and she can't wait to share her favorite plays (and snuggles) with you!

Just like their momma, the Elegant pups love other dogs and people, including children. They've also been exposed to fancy felines who share their elegant taste as well. Even though they're still young, they're making progress with house-training, but will need extra love and patience as they master crates, leashes and commands. Mom is about 45 pounds so the pups might grow to be around that size as well.

Dashing. Chic. Elegant. Bring these beautiful pooches home today!

All dogs are up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered at the time of adoption. All dogs require professional training to become the best family member they can be.

Note that if the dog is listed as an "Out of town pet" there are NOT additional transport fees - it is included in our adoption fee Our dogs are rescued from various situations. It is most likely that both their parents were strays and even if not, mixes of some sort and that their grandparents were mixes as well. The dog may have some genetic material of an American Staffordshire Terrier (pit bull). The dogs are usually mixes of many breeds, making them a breed all their own - a True and adorable American MUTT. If you are interested in this dog, you must submit an application.
