NOT FREE, THERE IS A REHOMING FEE my boyfriend is rehoming his dog as his mom is getting older and she's beginning to be too much for her. her name is sybil, my boyfriend got her at 8 weeks old, both parents american staffordshire terrier. she's the runt if the little, so smaller than average, but extremely muscular. her birthday is 11/08/17, so she's 3 years (10 months and 14 days old) and will be 4 in november. she's very loving and friendly towards people, not good at all with cats. i'm not sure how she is with other dogs as we've only had her around a puppy, but there have been times where she would snap and growl at him, so i personally wouldn't recommend having her around other dogs. sybil doesn't like her nails trimmed, won't bite when you try, but WILL pull away and run. (i think she has sensitive paws?) to fix that, i'd either get something to put her in for grooming and POSSIBLY a muzzle (just to be safe) or take her to a vet. sybil's okay with bathes, but doesn't particularly like them, so she'll move around a lot. i've bathed her a few times and had no issues, but that's just what my boyfriend told me. when let outside, she will HAVE to be leashed unless you have a fenced in yard. if you don't have a fenced in yard and you trust her to go out on her own, she will most likely run off, especially if there's a small animal nearby. we have a "chain" that we put outside for the puppy we had, it works perfectly even though we realized we bought the wrong one and had to improvise. despite the small issues, she's a great dog and has a lot of potential. she will come with food, a big cage, dishes, leash, etc. boyfriend will be very picky about who she goes to as she's his baby, so please make sure that if he allows you to take her, you will give her the love and patience she deserves!!
