Meet Kitten! She is a black w/ white two and a half year, 66 lb, American Staffordshire Terrier.
Kitten is a naturally protective Staffie. She’s got a bark like a machine gun but is friendly to most of the cats. I found her as a stray while walking my other pitbull. Unfortunately Kitten is allergic to something around the house and its difficult to keep her bathed often enough to be comfortable. When I see her chewing it takes up a lot of mental energy.
Kitten is a very bright girl that likes a brisk walk but is fine slower paces too. There are four cats here. She only chases two of them, probably because they run. She charms anyone she meets, possibly since she’s settled down a bit in young adulthood. She plays well with other dogs. If other pets live with a prospective owner, its probably best for two or more adults to live there as well. That should provide an outlet for Kitten if her owner is occupied with other pets.
Kitten is housebroken. She doesn’t know any tricks but is very smart. I have one other dog and four cats and have not taken time to train her. Kitten requires Purina hypoallergenic veterinary food. Without this food, she scratches her chin on the floor briefly after eating. She is apparently allergic to several other things around the home. With only a food allergy, this decision would be put off indefinitely but she needs two baths a week at the moment and that situation may not change for several years.
It breaks my heart to see her chew her paw pads off, or wheeze with an asthma attack out of breath. If you like pit bulls/staffies, Kitten is smart as a whip, good with cats and very accommodating and respectful to other pets. You would do well to meet her.
