Kiki arrived for rehoming on 8th June 2026. She is a female Staffordshire bull terrier born in October 2024, making her 2 years of age this coming October.

 

The sort of home for Kiki

 

• No dogs currently in the home

• No cats currently in the home

• No children under the age of 5 years

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

• Access to the sofa for cuddles

• In her previous home Kiki was not used to being left alone, and any new owner needs to consider getting her used to being left for longer periods, up to a maximum of 4 hours.

 

Handling

A very sweet, gentle and friendly staffie girl. She would be classed as a more traditional size (small) than most staffies we see these days and weighs a lean 15.7 kilos. She did bark at us when we first tried on a new harness, but when her previous owners left the room she was fine being fitted for the new harness. She takes treats very nicely, and is very treat orientated.

 

Walks

On our walks Kiki is a brisk walker, and does pull a bit. As a smaller dog her pulling is manageable for our walkers, but she may pull too much for some people. Dogs that she has seen she has ignored. She is not bothered by traffic or cyclists. She is happy to do her toilet on her walks as well.

 

Play

She has shown that she likes to play with balls, and also enjoys snuffling for treats. She is also very happy breaking off from play to have cuddles and fusses. No possessiveness around toys.

 

Health

Kiki is currently just finishing a season according to her previous owner. Other than this she appears in good health with no obvious signs of injury or illness. She will see our vet during week commencing 8th June for a general check-up, 1st restart and Kennel Cough vaccines.

 

Please be aware that the profiles of new dogs can change as we get to know about the dogs the longer, they stay with us.

 

The adoption contribution is £275.00.
