About Cj

Cj is currently with a foster in Texas but eager to pack his bags for the Pacific Northwest and settle in with his forever family. This big-hearted Staffy mix is about a year old and tips the scale at 70 pounds, making him a true gentle giant. He lives with two other dogs and gets along well with all of them, always up for a game or just a solid cuddle session. Cj’s a people lover and does well in a home with other friendly dogs, never needing to be the boss, just hoping for companionship. He’s housebroken, crate trained, knows his basic manners like ‘sit’, and walks nicely on leash. His favorite activities include giving hugs, offering kisses, and playing catch. Cj takes treats softly and generally aims to please, thriving on positive attention and snacks. He would enjoy a home where walks or hikes are a regular routine, and he's open to learning more in obedience class, especially if there’s a treat at the end. Older children are best for Cj since he can get excited and jump to say hello. He’s curious about cats, so a cat-free home is ideal. If you want an affectionate dog who slots easily into a dog-friendly lifestyle and is enthusiastic about life, Cj is the one for you. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
