Mia arrived for rehoming on 1 May 2024. She is 4 years of age (born April 2020).

 

The sort of home for Mia:

​

• No dogs or cats in the home.

• No children living in the home under the age of 8

• Access to her own private and secure garden (not shared or communal)

• Access to the sofa for cuddles

• Not caged/crated in the home.

 

Handling

A typical staffie, energetic and bouncy, full of fun and all over you for fuss and cuddles. Very easy to handle, allowed us to fit her with one of our temporary harnesses with no problems at all. A lovely friendly girl, takes treats nicely, but may mouth slightly when very excited.

 

Walking

An easy dog to walk. Little or no pulling, but walks at length of the lead, and will come back to her name or a gentle tug on the lead. No socialised with dogs so when she sees a dog she may whimper, cry a little and watch, but no aggression shown. Her pads are very soft so we are building her walks up with 3 short walks a day at the moment.

 

Dogs and cats

Mia is not socialised with dogs, and has never been introduced to them. If you adopt Mia you will need to allow her time to settle with you, trust you, before any careful introductions to dogs. On walks she has shown mild unsocialised behaviours – whimpering, a little crying, and some pulling but no aggression. Mia has never lived with cats.

 

Playing

We are told that Mia loves to play with balls and will fetch balls. She may growl during play, and her own has said she can take toys from Mia but she may growl when you do it.

 

Health

Mia appears in very good health. She is not vaccinated or neutered and last had a season. She will need to be neutered after her next season. She will see our vet on 2 May 2024.
