LOCKIE IS AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION ***PLEASE NOTE - In keeping with our aim to protect our wildlife AND our cats and dogs, we only offer our kitties to INDOOR ONLY homes and our dogs to properties with DOG PROOF FENCING*** Please read our guidelines here before applying to adopt 🙂 https://www.facebook.com/notes/1444849889239166/ To apply to adopt please fill out the appropriate form: For this dogga https://form.jotform.co/91457110205850 ABOUT LOCKIE Meet Lockie, a charming 2-year-old Male Am Staff mix who's ready to make a loving addition to your family. With a DNA test showing he's almost 60% Amstaff, Lockie may have the appearance of a tough guy, but he's actually the sweetest softie you'll ever meet. Lovingly cared for and well-mannered, he's undergoing a change due to no fault of his own, and it's certainly not an easy decision to see him leave his current home. Lockie is not just a looker; he's incredibly well-trained too, boasting a Level 3 Obedience Certificate, which is a testament to his intelligence and ability to follow commands. He's microchipped, desexed, and up-to-date with all his vaccinations, as well as being wormed and heartworm negative. House-trained and with a friendly nature towards kids and other dogs, Lockie is the perfect fit for family life. A typical day for Lockie includes leisurely finding a shady spot for a well-earned nap, followed by exhilarating afternoon zoomies to burn off some energy. He enjoys a good swim and loves a game of fetch if the mood strikes him. Despite his hefty 45 kg, Lockie is an excellent walker on a lead with a Halti, but he also does just fine with a simple collar. Lockie is a social being, happy to mix with other dogs during his walks, though he hasn't lived with another dog or cats. He isn’t an escape artist, but solid fencing is recommended due to his physical ability to jump a fence for fun games if tempted. Lockie would do well in a home that doesn't leave him alone for particularly long periods, as he cherishes human company. While he's content to sleep outside, he's more than willing to join you indoors as well. Although he is not food aggressive, it is best for him, as it is with most dogs, to have his space to eat without disruptions. Though he's not fond of loud noises, Lockie has a relatively calm disposition. He'll bark when necessary but isn't prone to constant barking, making him an alert yet peaceful presence in your life. Whether you're looking for a loyal companion to relax with or a friend for active adventures, Lockie's big heart and gentle demeanor make him the perfect canine addition to your life. Age: DOB 01.11.2022 Breed: Amstaff mix Kid friendly: Yes Dog friendly: Yes Cat friendly: Not tested but very likely to be given the chance Bird friendly: Not tested House trained: Yes Estimated size as an adult: Large Location: Cairns Microchip #941000027521687 Lockie has been desexed, microchipped, flea, tick and worm treated, vaccinated and heartworm tested negative.

I have an Female American Staffy aged 22 months old who has not been desexed, I brought her at 8 weeks old, she is also microchipped and registered, her name is Bella & she is Red Tan in colour with Hazel coloured eyes, she is very hyper active and loves heaps of affection, she correctly sleeps inside but loves to go outside and run around and play with her tug-of-war rope and fetch, but she is still learning to bring the ball back, she also loves to go on walks and is great with meeting other dogs, but she has never had any socialisation with cats or any other pets

American Staffordshire Bull Terrier – Umina Beach

11 Month old female American Staffy for sale. We have had her since 7 weeks old and she is a huge part of our family. This is a very regretful and sad sale… She is undergoing dog training, she is eager to please and loves food. She needs to go to a family where she can be walked daily and be taken on as many car trips as she can be taken on. She needs people who can play with her and who give her lots of cuddles… She is very snuggly and loves attention. She has grown up with 2 young kids and is great with them. Very loyal and loving towards them. She does get very excited by kids though especially while they are running, so she will be best with older kids. She loves our cats but gets too excited with them. I suggest she lives in home with no other dogs. Unfortunately her and my old staffy no longer get on and she is finding the packing order a struggle. This is going to be huge for us and extremely sad to re home her. A meet and greet will be a must prior to sale and she will go to a good home only. She is micro chipped and desexed. We are located in Umina Beach. Please no time wasters. Frankie

Grooming

The American Staffordshire Terrier does not shed heavily, and their short coat does not require much in the way of maintenance.

Origins

The American Staffordshire Terrier descends directly from the Staffordshire Bull Terrier or Staffy, introduced to America in the late 1800s. Originally bred for bull-baiting and dog fighting, the Staffy’s popularity waned after England outlawed these blood sports in 1835, eventually being supplanted by the Bull Terrier.

When brought to America, the Staffy quickly gained popularity as a working dog. American breeders selected different traits, creating a distinctly American breed. The United Kennel Club recognized the American Staffordshire Terrier in 1936, and the American Kennel Club followed in 1974.

Today, the American Staffordshire Terrier is a beloved companion and family pet, celebrated for loyalty, courage, and strength. They often work in law enforcement and security.

Key Characteristics Of American Staffordshire Bull Terriers

Are American Staffordshire Bull Terriers Family-Friendly?

Yes, American Staffordshire Terriers are loyal, loving, and protective. Properly socialised from an early age, they are good with children and other pets. These intelligent dogs are easy to train but can exhibit stubbornness, requiring patience and consistency.

Common Health Issues & Considerations

American Staffordshire Bull Terriers may suffer from:

Cataracts

Patellar luxation

A condition where the kneecap dislocates or moves out of its normal location within the knee joint.

Nature / Temperament

Loyal, Brave, Intelligent, Quiet, Gentle

Suitable Environment

These dogs adapt well to both apartment and house living. They remain calm and gentle indoors but need ample outdoor time to prevent boredom.

Other Considerations

  1. The AmStaff is not suited for full-time outdoor living.
  2. Early socialisation is crucial to ensure they are friendly with other dogs.
  3. Like other terriers, they love to dig, so reinforce the bottom of fences with concrete or chicken wire.

How can I take good care of my American Staffordshire Bull Terrier?

Nutrition

The American Staffordshire Terrier’s diet should consist of high-quality protein, fat, and carbohydrates. Due to their high energy levels and active lifestyle, they may require more calories than other breeds. Protein, essential for muscle development and repair, should dominate their diet.

Look for food listing meat or poultry as the first ingredient. Fat provides energy and maintains a healthy coat, with chicken fat, fish oil, and flaxseed oil as the best sources. Carbohydrates aid digestion and should make up about 10% of their diet. Choose complex carbohydrates like sweet potatoes, rice, and oats, and avoid simple carbs like sugar, which can cause weight gain and health problems like diabetes.

Consult your veterinarian to determine your dog’s daily caloric needs based on their weight, age, and activity level.

Grooming

Regular brushing with a stiff bristle brush keeps the American Staffordshire Terrier’s coat healthy and removes dead hair.

Exercise

AmStaffs need at least an hour of vigorous exercise daily, including long walks or runs. They enjoy playing fetch and tug-of-war and make great hiking and jogging partners. If you lack the time or energy for their exercise needs, consider hiring a professional dog walker or enrolling in doggy daycare.

Due to their high prey drive, never let an AmStaff off-leash outside an enclosed area. They also need mental stimulation to stay happy and well-adjusted. Interactive dog toys, like food puzzles and Kongs stuffed with treats, challenge their minds.

Training

Training classes provide mental stimulation and socialisation with other dogs, which is vital for this breed. Obedience training is essential; start early to instil good behaviours before they become fully grown. Enrol your AmStaff puppy in obedience classes, ensuring the training methods use positive reinforcement.

This is general information and should not be relied on for adopting or purchasing advice.
