Adopt Atlas

Staffordshire Bull Terrier · Male · Adult · 4 years

Atlas is full-on character, a certified goofball with a heart of gold, he has a way of brightening even the dullest of days with his expressive face and silly antics. His greatest joys in life? Sunbathing like it’s a full-time job, dreaming about sausages, and enjoying the world’s best bum scratches (which, in his opinion, should always be available on demand). Whether he’s pottering along on a sniffy walk, soaking up the sunshine, or making you laugh with his silly expressions, Atlas has that special spark. With a little patience (and plenty of treats), he’ll become the most loyal, loving, and entertaining best friend you could wish for. Home requirements: If you’ve been searching for a best friend who will make you laugh every single day, look no further, Atlas is ready to steal your heart. This 4-year-old Staffy is a sunshine-loving, snack-loving boy who is always bursting with personality. This lovable boy would prefer to be the only pet in the home, though he’s happy to enjoy some walking buddies out and about. He can live with older, secondary school-aged children and is comfortable being left for around 4–6 hours. He may need a couple of meets and greets when meeting new people at first, but with tasty treats he will quickly warm up and, before long, you’ll be his absolute favourite human (Atlas has already had some practice with this and was such a good boy!) Atlas would suit someone with behavioural experience or someone willing to learn, who can help him continue to grow in confidence. Available at Shrewsbury (Shropshire), Telford
