About Princess

Princess turns heads wherever she goes—her blue and white coloring is immediately striking, and her smaller medium frame at about 55 lbs makes her approachable and easy to handle. She's a female American Staffordshire Terrier mix around 7.5 years old and has clearly learned the art of charming people. Princess is quick to bond with adults and children and uses her moderate energy in all the best ways: always up for a walk, jog, or toy session but content to relax too. When living with other dogs, she can be a bit particular, so she'll need slow introductions; her opinions on cats aren’t known. One of her quirks is her sneaky side—she’s been caught liberating pieces from her foster dad’s woodpile, always thinking she’s getting away with it. Princess is crate and house trained, vaccinated, microchipped, and vetted. While she hasn’t been spayed yet, she’s otherwise in great health and ready for her next chapter. Adopters need to be 25+ or show they’re independent, and renters must show landlord approval. A fenced yard is preferred. Princess is waiting in Westlake, OH, for someone who wants a companion with personality to spare. Start your journey together! Apply now.
