About Ares

Adoption Fee: $25
Lab / American Staffordshire Terrier
Age: Puppy
Sex: Male

Ares, the God of War, is like no other. He is the most incredible jumper I have ever seen, the most wimpy and somehow protective guard dog to exist. He loves and cuddles like no one else and there is no where he would rather be than home. Unfortunately, Ares anxieties and protective tendencies have led to him overreacting and inevitably biting a stranger. Not out of anger or aggression, but simply out of fear or protection. He needs someone that can love him more than life itself, seeing as that's how he loves. He'll wrestle and play all day long, but he's also okay with curling up on your lap to watch movies all day while it rains outside. Ares isn't perfect but he is as close to perfect as can be. With the right training he could become the ideal guard dog! Full disclosure: he doesn't do well with small dogs and tends to be skiddish with men. He has bitten 3 smaller dogs, but has been fine with our parents cocker spaniel. He has one bite on record, but 3 bites in total against humans. All three of which were men that were unknown to him and weren't shown to him to be okay to be around. He really is the most loving dog in the world. And when he's yours you're also his and he'll do anything and everything for you. Again he isn't perfect, but he's the closest you could ever come to it.
