A little about them
Meet Poppa, a handsome, athletic Staffy and resident ball champion! At 4 years old, he is affectionate, playful, strong, and full of personality. Poppa loves playing fetch and will happily bring his ball—or even two balls at once—back for another throw. He shows no resource guarding and has a sweet, loving side.
Poppa is smart, confident, and enthusiastic. He would thrive with an experienced, active, dog-savvy person who values structure, consistency, positive reinforcement, and continued training. He may be selective about canine friends, so thoughtful introductions will be important.
Poppa offers endless entertainment, an enthusiastic playmate, and the opportunity to build a rewarding bond with a big-hearted dog. His adoption fee has been paid through a donation from Tim Pantle.
