My story

I am 43lbs and I am looking for my forever home. Adoption Donation: $450 Meet Smores! This sweet Boxer/American Staffordshire Terrier mix is just as irresistible as her name. She’s one smart cookie, already knowing “sit,” “stay,” and “down.” Smores is a champ at bath time, fully house- and crate-trained, and even has her own polite way of asking to go outside—she’ll head to the door and give you a little whine to let you know. Smores is ready to ride shotgun too—car rides are one of her absolute favorite things, and she’s the perfect travel buddy. She would do best in a home with children 8 and up, where she can share her love, loyalty, and tail wags galore. Could Smores be the missing ingredient to make your family complete? She sure hopes so—her tail hasn’t stopped wagging since you started reading! All dogs are microchipped, neutered, current on all vaccines, heartworm tested (if age appropriate), and up-to-date on preventatives at the time of adoption. All household members and any dogs from the household need to be present to be able to adopt. A photo ID will be required at the time of adoption. Appointments are recommended. All applications are considered general. Specific animals are NOT put on hold for adoption. When you visit, our adoption counselors will be able to make suggestions based on the type of pet you are looking for and help you find the best fit for your family. Animal House Shelter cannot guarantee the breeds of the adoptable animals. The animals are posted on the website as the breed or breed mix based on their physical characteristics they most resemble. We also cannot guarantee the ages of our adoptable animals or how large puppies will be when fully grown. We look forward to seeing you soon!
