    Stitch

    Gorgeous Stitch is an active, intelligent and fun loving boy who is looking for an equally active owner. He is very sociable and wants to be friends with everyone he meets! He can be bouncy and excitable when greeting but is doing very well with training in this area. He loves going on adventures and meeting other dogs but is still learning so will need an owner who will have the time and patience to continue with his training and socialisation. This sweet natured boy is also very playful and always up for a game with his toys! He would love a home where he could lead an active lifestyle, getting plenty of enrichment and physical/mental stimulation to keep him busy, before cuddling up on the sofa with his family in the evenings. He is a charming chap and will make a wonderfully rewarding companion for the right match.

    Other Notes

    Stitch could live in a flat as long as there is direct access to a private garden. He can live with sensible teenagers of 14+ providing they have experience around dogs and will not be intimidated by his excitable nature at times. Whilst at Mayhew, Stitch has had dental treatment consisting of a scale and polish of his teeth. He has been neutered, microchipped and vaccinated and is up to date with flea and worm treatment. He has also been health checked and behaviourally assessed. Here’s what one of Stitch’s friends says about him: Stitch is my new office bestie! This big, beautiful boy is full of enthusiasm for life, but he is also very well behaved and very quick learner. After the initial excitement of meeting me, he soon settles down and happily entertains himself with his toys - although (luckily for me [🙂] !) he does come in for a kiss, a cuddle and a little game every so often! Having him with me as I go through my work day, seeing his lovely eyes look up at me and his constantly wagging tail - is a real treat. Stitch has a typical 'Staffie-smile' that lights up any room, and he's a bit of an adorable clown...everything about him radiates kindness, playfulness and Love with a capital 'L'. His forever owners will be very lucky to have him as part of their family.
