Gump

Description

Successfully rehomed by Blue Cross - Southampton

I am told I am a pleasure to be around: I walk well on the lead and love to learn new things and have fun with you. I enjoy relaxing with you and watching the tv of an evening.

I know my basics and have nearly earned my 'life skills' rosette and certificate. I am learning to play with toys- I have got the running after part, it's just the bringing back I need to get to grips with!

I am calm and well mannered around other dogs but am quite a sensible chap so do not want too much hassle from them.

I could be left for a few hours as long as I have had some excercise before. I could possibly live with school aged children as long as I can meet them here at the centre first.

Please do not be put off by my breed- Staffies are so misunderstood and I am a perfect ambassador for the breed!
