About Stilton

Stilton has some strong opinions about life. He thinks people are great, other dogs are fantastic, toys are a must, and food? That's the best part! At 6 years old, this little guy knows how to keep a household happy. He makes sure to greet anyone at the door with a friendly bark, letting them know he’s there, and eagerly awaits their attention. Stilton enjoys the company of other dogs, welcoming them in even if they sometimes take his toys or lap space. He knows where the boundaries are — like avoiding wastebaskets and tabletops — but he’s always responsive when called, unless, of course, there’s a squirrel in sight! He relishes his outdoor adventures and makes sure to take care of business while enjoying walks. Belly rubs? He is all for it. If your home could use some lively character, Stilton would be thrilled to bring his unique flair to you. For those eager to adopt, more details about the process can be found on our website.
