Archie – Staffie/Whippet Dog

Breed: Staffordshire Bull Terrier cross Whippet
Sex: Female
Age: 4 years
Key information: Needs some training. Needs a secure garden. Needs a cat-free home.

Archie is around 4 years old and is a very loving girl, she can be a bit bouncy when meeting people initially, but is responding well to training. 

She needs to be walked on lead unless in a secure environment due to her high prey drive. She is not good with cats or any wild animals but gets on well with most dogs, although can get over excited at times wanting to play.

She is good with older children but can be boisterous but will respond to commands.
Archie does not travel well in the car and can get stressed in towns and is best on the back seat where she is close to her family.
She also suffers from separation anxiety but through training can now be left for 2.5 hours before getting anxious, she will then howl sporadically but is non destructive, this should improve with ongoing training. 
Archie has a loving and funny girl with a great character, who would benefit from someone with time to carry on her training, she is a very clever dog who loves routine and being close to her family.

Please note Archie is not currently in our care, if you would like to offer Archie a new home, please send your contact details to info@bordrespetrescue.org and we will pass these on to her owners
