About Cashew

Meet Cashew! He’s a lively 1-year-old Boxer and American Staffordshire Terrier mix, weighing in at a sprightly 39 lbs. With his infectious grin, expressive ears, and a wiggly body that can’t contain his excitement, he’s hard to resist. Cashew was found at a park, initially scared and underweight, but he quickly turned things around. After overcoming leg surgery, he’s now ready to run and play. His energetic nature is matched by his intelligence; he enjoys working on puzzles and commands that keep his mind active. Cashew has excelled in professional training—he’s e-collar trained and has shown fantastic impulse control since completing his training. He thrives on fetch, tug-of-war, and the occasional pup cup treat. A typical day for him might include a walk, some training, playtime, and then a long nap. Cashew is fantastic with people and adores kids, making him a wonderful family companion. Being a young dog with plenty of energy, he benefits from structure and consistent training, perfect for an active adopter. Don’t worry; his trainer is available to guide his new family through his routine and the e-collar. Cashew is crate trained and food motivated, bringing a playful personality to the table. Currently located in Houston but can be transported to Iowa, included in his $650 adoption fee, Cashew is ready to find a loving home. This could be the start of something paw-some.
