Meet Sky!
Hello, I’m Sky
I’m a stunning 8-month-old Staffie cross with a big heart, a beautiful face and the sweetest personality. I absolutely adore people and love nothing more than being close to my favourite humans, soaking up all the fuss and, of course, having plenty of cuddles!
I’m a fun, energetic girl who loves to play, and my favourite game has to be a good old game of tug with my rope toy. I’ve got lots of puppy energy and will need a family who can give me plenty of exercise, enrichment and, most importantly, continue helping me with my training.
I’m already totally house trained, which I’m very proud of! I’m still working on my lead manners, though, and I can be quite a strong little puller when I’m excited. I’ll need someone who has the time and patience to help me learn that walks are much nicer when we don’t try to get everywhere at once!
I also struggle with being left alone at the moment, so my new family will need to be prepared to very gradually build up the amount of time I’m left for. I’ll need someone who has the time to work with me at my own pace, helping me learn that being apart from my people is nothing to worry about. This will need to be introduced slowly and positively rather than expecting me to cope with long periods alone straight away.
I’m good with other dogs and I do enjoy their company, but I can be a little too enthusiastic and pushy with my canine friends. I’m still learning how to be polite and understand when another dog has had enough, so I’d really benefit from someone who is happy to continue working on my doggy manners. Because of this, I’d prefer to be the only dog in the home, so my family can give me all the time, attention and training I need.
I currently live with a cat in my foster home, so I could potentially live with a dog-savvy cat in the future. However, they would need to be a confident cat who isn’t afraid to tell me off when I’m being a little too pushy! Any introductions would need to be carefully managed to make sure everyone is comfortable.
I could potentially live with older teenagers who are used to energetic, bouncy dogs. Because I’m a strong, lively young girl who can get very excited, I’d be better suited to older teenagers rather than young children.
I may still have a few things to learn, but I’m such a lovely girl with so much potential. I’m affectionate, playful, people-loving and absolutely gorgeous — and once I’ve had my zoomies and playtime, I’m more than happy to curl up with you for a cuddle.
I’ve got plenty of love to give — I just need someone to show me the way!
