Mom was an American Staffordshire Terrier and dad was another Staffordshire Terrier or a Rottweiler (nobody knew for sure). The puppies were scheduled to go to an out of state rescue however they could not get their health certificates as they tested positive for parvo. They were hospitalized and eventually got better, another rescue offered to take them but never followed through with getting them adopted, they then came to us. They loved their foster mom but were not socialized a whole lot as they had been so sick. Fast forward and they are very standoffish and weary of strangers, however once they form a bond they absolutely love, love, love their people. Temperament- Piquin would do best in a home with few strangers coming in and out as she is weary of them and can be protective of her home. She isn't aggressive she is just very weary. However, she is very happy, loving, and playful with the people she loves. She bonds quickly and is a sweet, goofy, little love bug, who will do anything to make her loved one happy. She loves attention and playing with toys. Energy Level- Mid level energy- she loves to play wrestle with the other dogs (she is with Jacques, Taffy, and Czr). They wrestle, play tug, play chase, and just have fun but she would really love to have her own person to love and cuddle with on the couch. She would make an amazing jogging or hiking partner. Dogs/Cats- Good with the other dogs and cats Housetrained- House trained perfectly using a dog door. Her group have their own room with cot and beds and a dog door. When she comes into the living room to visit she likes to curl up on the couch and watch tv or follow me around. She is not crate trained. This girl is so beautiful, compact, and fun-- she is very athletic. She would love a family to love and call her very own who she can sprawl out on the couch with. She will make someone an amazing pet as she bonds strongly and becomes an amazing protector. She would do best with older kids and adults who can spend lots of time with her. Adoption fee $100 includes her spay, all age appropriate vaccinations, dewormed, microchipped, 3 yr rabies vacc, HW tested, collar and tags, training information, and all the support you need.
