Petunia Pig is a medium-sized, short-haired American Staffordshire Terrier mix with a friendly and affectionate nature. She’s an adult, spayed female currently living in Myerstown, PA. House trained and vaccinated, Petunia enjoys playful moments, but is equally happy to relax by your side. Her white and red coloring makes her stand out, and while she arrived with some safe, permanent hair loss, it hasn't affected her cheerful spirit.

About Petunia Pig

Meet Petunia Pig. She’s a Staffy mix, about four years old and weighing around 55–60 pounds. Petunia’s sweet, outgoing personality really shines—she makes friends quickly and loves any excuse for affection. Walks to the play yard are highlights of her day, and you’ll usually find her showing off her favorite stuffed toys when she gets a chance to romp around outside. There’s a nice balance to Petunia: she’s energetic and playful during activity time and then turns into an expert cuddler once things quiet down in the evening. Petunia arrived with alopecia, which left some areas along her sides and back without fur; these spots likely won’t grow back, but it doesn’t slow her down or dampen her happy mood. She should be the only pet in the house, but she’s plenty of company—loyal, affectionate, and always ready to draw a smile. Petunia is best with kids 12 and up. Ready to fall in love?
