Simba is a seven-year-old American Staffordshire Terrier who is looking for a fresh start. He came to the shelter after his previous family—who truly cared for him—felt they could no longer give him the time and attention he deserves. Simba is a gentle, affectionate dog who loves cuddling and happily dishes out kisses. He has experience living with young children and did well with them. Simba is protective by nature and may need some time to adjust to new people, especially men. He is most comfortable in a calm home without a lot of unknown visitors. Simba knows several commands, including sit and shake, and he's house trained. In his previous home, he could be left alone without a crate, though starting out, a crate can provide extra comfort as he learns a new routine. He enjoys all sorts of toys—from balls to ropes and even frisbees—so expect plenty of fun playtime. Born under the sign of Gemini, Simba might surprise you with his playful yet thoughtful personality. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
