Terrier, American Staffordshire / Mix

7 Years and 5 Months old
Rhodi is a handsome, medium-sized American Staffordshire mix with the most stunning caramel-colored coat and a crisp white stripe running up his chest. This boy is full of life and loves to rev his engines—you’ll often catch him doing joyful zoomies around the yard!
Rhodi is an energetic and loving pup who’s still learning that the world is a safe and happy place. Because of this, he can be a little shy at first and will need a patient, understanding family willing to give him the time and space to build trust. With a little love (and maybe a few treats!), Rhodi begins to open up and show his sweet, affectionate side.
He’ll also need slow, proper introductions to other dogs, people, and older children as he continues to grow in confidence. Once he feels secure, you’ll see what a truly special boy he is.
Rhodi has so much love to give and is just waiting for the right family to help him shine. With patience and kindness, he’s going to make an incredibly loyal and rewarding companion.

Something to Consider:
Puppies don't train themselves
If you aren’t willing to train a puppy every single day, don’t get a puppy! It isn’t a one-shot deal. You have to be dedicated. And if you aren’t making progress – find someone who can help. Enroll in a puppy training class or hire a trainer. Most cities across the nation have some sort of availability for this kind of help and at different cost levels that would fit your budget.
Puppies are going to poop a lot and pee even more; chew on everything; bite everyone; scratch people and furniture; steal things; destroy something at some point; pull on the leash; not move at all on the leash; bark; cry; beg for attention; and the list goes on. You’re going to have to walk them, bathe them, pick up everything below waist height, buy new shoes, and most importantly: TRAIN THE PUPPY NOT TO DO THESE THINGS! Ultimately, it is your responsibility to teach your puppy that this behavior is unacceptable.
Puppies turn into dogs...
