About Skipper

Adoption Fee: $200
Staffordshire Bull Terrier / Pit Bull
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Male

Hi, there! They call me Skipper. I am special needs as I am blind though you might not even notice at first. I was on the list to be killed at the Shelter. But a Rescue that helps blind dogs had someone check me out and I was very friendly with people and a kind person offered to foster me! I had no idea how close I was to death and am a very happy boy! I am about 4 years old and weigh around 75 pounds. I love to go for walks and like to run with you and I can 'sit' for my food. I also love to chew on raw, beef soup bones. I am not good with other dogs or cats so I am currently in a big outside kennel as there are other pups in the house, but I don't like to soil my living space or lift my leg inside a home, so I am very likely housebroken. I have a real zest for life and am always happy to be around you. I had a complete blood panel done to ensure that I am nice and healthy and I am already neutered, current on shots and micro chipped. I was recently evaluated by a trainer and there are some great videos showing you how nice I am inside a home. Also, the trainer is very willing to work with you if you'd like to adopt me. I will be working on going out with a muzzle on, so that I will be safe if another dog is loose and approaches me. If you want to foster me before adopting me, that is an option that could work, also. My perfect home would be where I am the only dog and if you have kids, they are 10 and up as I might accidentally knock them over. I was on a day foster outing in a home with a 10 year old and had a great time! Pictures don't really show it, but I am very broad and built like a tank! My adoption donation is $200. Please call or text Diane at (925) 209-6480 for more photos and videos and info. If you have room in your heart for a special dog with a fat head who will give you lots of love, you definitely should meet me!
