About Xena

Adoption Fee: $50
Staffordshire Bull Terrier
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Female

Xena is a staffershire bull terrier. Her birthday is 7/10/14. Overall xenas a wonderfull dog. She's very loving and caring to her people, other animals though she's not to fond of. She loves kids and most people. She is very dominant and if she has the chance she'll try. I adopted her in north Georgia. She was found in the middle of the blue ridge highway in December, Emaciated in the rain after dark. She weighed 25lbs. She was taken into my cousins home and weened back to health. She was with 3 dogs there. I met her in late February and brought her home. She has not gotten along with any of the neighbors or friends dogs. She also doesn't like our barn cat. She has severe seperation anxiety and will tell you all about it. She also doesnt eat or drink unless your there with her. She will try to dominate a person who has a major physical disability or when someone falls. Also her prey drive is very high. Shes bullheaded and stubborn. Shes also very sweet and loves my 7 year old son. And all the other kids. She doesnt want them to wrestle and has tried to break it up. She loves to swim with a lifejacket on, and play. She'll retrieve sticks and balls. Plays tug and chews on her kong and bones. She loves to snuggle in bed and on the couch. If she really likes you she'll give you belly. She does not chew shoes, furniture, clothes,etc. She does pee occasionally if she's mad or really has to go. She talks alot with grunts, groans, garbles, chuffs, huffs, and sometimes a scream. She also rarely barks. We have alot of friends and family that come out and its not fair or healthy for her to be locked up when someone she wants to dominate comes over or anything like that. Also we dont have a fenced in yard. So shes leashed all the time accept inside. She needs a home where theres not a lot of visitors and she's an only animal. A fenced yard is a must. She doesnt dig holes or eat the cats or any other animals poop. Shes approximately 15 inches tall at the shoulder and weighs 53lbs. Shes very strong and she is not fat. She needs someone whos strong physically to handle her. Ive said since we got her that she has 100lbs of torque. I want to see Xena in a good home. I dont want her to meet an untimely end due to her wanting to be dominating and biting someone. I know that there is someone who's perfect for her and shes here waiting.
