Meet Venus!
Venus is a 5-year-old spayed female Staffordshire Terrier/Lab mix weighing about 45 lbs. She's a gorgeous girl who is incredibly sweet and affectionate. Venus is the kind of dog who will gently rest her head on your lap and gaze at you like you're her whole world. She is calm and people-oriented, happy to match your energy whether it's relaxing on the couch or joining you for an outdoor adventure. Venus loves to run, wrestle, and explore with her canine companions, and she especially shines during backyard zoomies. She also loves toys and prefers playing with her humans over other dogs. Her zoomies and little "woo" of excitement are just part of her fun, goofy charm. She adores playing in water, whether it's a kiddie pool or a stream on a trail. Venus also rides great in the car, making her a perfect companion for road trips, park visits, or trail days.
Ideal Home
Venus would thrive in a home where she's truly part of the family. She would do best in a home without cats, or one with very dog-savvy cats. While she hasn't met young children, her foster believes she could do well in a family with older, respectful kids who understand boundaries.
Ongoing Health
No ongoing health concerns are mentioned.
Training & Support
Venus is still working on leash manners; she can pull some, but she's learning quickly and is very food motivated. She is fully house-trained, crate-trained, and trustworthy when left loose in the house. She eats with enthusiasm and does best when fed separately using a slow feeder to prevent her from sneaking bites of other dogs' meals.
