About Echo

Echo is staying in Sykesville, MD and is about eight months old, with a mix of English Bulldog and American Staffordshire Terrier in him. He is outgoing, loves attention, and is happiest when he’s around people or getting treats. Echo gets along well with other dogs and lights up during fenced yard playtime. He isn’t a fan of being locked in a crate but does well sleeping in an open one—he’ll let you know if he’s feeling a bit closed in. Like most young dogs, Echo is still learning what’s okay to chew and benefits from supervision in the house. He’s already house trained, uses a doggie door, walks well on a leash, and rides calmly in the car. His pink skin, especially around his face, is sensitive to the sun, so a little extra care and some dog-safe sunscreen go a long way. For anyone looking for an affectionate, playful, and strikingly soft partner, Echo fits the bill. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
