Adopt Hera

Staffordshire Bull Terrier · Female · Adult · 4 years

Hera is a beautiful silver Staffy-mix with velvet grey coat and olive eyes. She's energetic and intelligent, learning commands quickly and being food-motivated. Found with collar but no microchip, she survived Parvovirus and recovered fully. Needs experienced owner for training - pulls on leash and jumps enthusiastically when greeting people. Loves car rides, training sessions, and learns tricks easily. Would thrive with patient owner willing to do obedience/agility training. Very clever and eager to learn but needs guidance on manners.

Hera is a beautiful silver small-built girl, kind of a Staffy-mix, with her velvet grey hair and her shiny olive eyes. She has pointy ears that give her a sharp look! Hera is a spicy cracker with character, and we LOVE IT! She was found with a collar that had HERA written on it, so we're obviously guessing that was her name, but she did not have any microchip, and noone ever came looking for her. During her arrival time, everything went wrong, she could not be vaccinated as she was in heat, and then while waiting for a kennel to leave the quarantine arrival area, Parvovirus arrived to the part of the building, and she also got sick with Parvovirus, together with a lot of young dogs. Parvovirus hit her hard but she fought through it, because she is a touch cookie and a real survivor. During Parvovirus Hera got so skinny and lost all her weight, so once she recovered, we were feeding her back into shape. By now she is back to her beautiful figure, and spicy character, and she is ready to go to her forever home! Hera is looking for a home who adores her like the beauty queen she is, however she also wants a human who has the experience, patience and motivation to show her what are considered "good manners" in the human world, like walking calmer on the leash, not jumping up to energetically to every person she wants to kiss and say hello to. Hera is very clever girl, she learns very fast and loves to learn. Here, sit, stay and other little tricks are absolutely a piece of cake for her, so she would love to have a person on her side who will take the time for training classes with her, for obedience, agility, tricks training. She is food motivated, which makes training with her so easy. As soon as a car door is opened, Hera is the first one in and ready for an adventure! She is energetic on the leash at first of course, as she only gets one walk a week.... but after some minutes of sniffing joyfull and rolling in the leaves, she finds a good ryhtym on the leash and is
