Muddy Buddy became a staff favorite as soon as he waddled his squat and sturdy little body through the door. This one-year-old Staffordshire Bull Terrier mix is a lover, delighting in cuddles, belly rubs, and ear scratches. He will toddle around the play yard for a few paces before plopping his big head in your lap. All of this makes him just as sweet and cheering as the chocolate-peanut butter-powdered sugar snack he’s named after. Even the veterinarian was enamored with him!
Staff have observed he is easily startled by loud noises, such as the sound of gunshots that carry across the farm field from faraway hunters. Since his arrival, though, Muddy Buddy has never been heard to make a noise himself. When in his room, Muddy Buddy simply sits patiently, staring at the colorful wall of his kennel. His delight upon seeing one of the staff when they come to greet him is always obvious!
Muddy Buddy is an easy-going guy. While gentle in just about every respect, he tends to act like his last meal was ages ago, and he therefore needs to learn how to take treats with more care. His adopters can take advantage of his food motivation, though, as Muddy Buddy is looking to expand his repertoire of basic commands. With just a handful of treats, he can learn to do far more than sit!
Muddy Buddy loves to play with other dogs. They give him energy and confidence in a way that no toy rope or tennis ball can. He would do well in a home with a canine companion, kids, and even a cat with slow introductions! To bring this sweet fella home, please head over to acskc.org to submit an adoption application. Once your application is approved, the Animal Care Shelter of Kent County will give you a call to schedule your meet and greet with Muddy Buddy!
