Costa is a 2 year old Kelpie X English Staffy who spent his early life chained up, so everything is still new to him, but he is embracing it all with a wagging tail and an incredible attitude.
Costa absolutely loves other dogs and would thrive in a home with a canine companion to show him the ropes, but he loves human interaction the most! While he doesn’t quite understand toys yet, he gets so much joy out of running alongside other dogs while they chase a ball. You can see him learning what it’s like to simply be a puppy.
He adores people, so expect him to stand up on his back legs and wrap his front paws around your legs for a cuddle. Once you’re sitting down, he’ll happily climb straight into your lap because, in Costa’s mind, he’s the perfect lap dog regardless of his size. And if you stop patting him, he’ll give you ‘the look’ until you continue.
Costa is indoor crate tested and settles well. He’s also fantastic with children, although his enthusiasm means he knock little ones over while zooming around so he’d be best suited to a family with kids over 6 years or a family that understands he’s still learning his manners as a puppy. Costa also doesn’t bark, but he will make the cutest little Staffy grunts when he is happy.
After the start he’s had, Costa deserves a family who will show him what love, adventure and belonging feel like. In return, you’ll get an affectionate, goofy best friend who just wants to be close to his people.
If you’re looking for a loyal shadow with a huge heart and an even bigger cuddle addiction, Costa could be your perfect match.
