Staffordshire Bull Terrier dogs for adoption in Shanklin, Isle of Wight

We rescued Milo just over a year ago from an abusive home and he has come a long way with us. Unfortunately since we had our daughter we aren't able to give him the amount of attention he needs and deserves. He's a very nervous boy from his past experiences but once he gets to know you he is extremely loving and likes nothing more than cuddling up with his human. Milo loves to run and play with a ball in the garden. He enjoys long walks but sometimes struggles with his anxiety when out. Our daughter is 11 months old and he is so good with her and shows no sign of aggression with her. He is such a lovely boy but would do much better with a family with older children as he needs a lot of love and attention. When he first meets someone he will bark but once he realises your not a threat will love you. Milo likes most food and will occasionally have a cheeky little sausage which he loves.

He can't be around children (only because he has never been around them before) He can't be around other animals. He walks great off the lead on fields and wooded large area's. He is anxious around big vehicles such as bus's and lorrys. He does pull on the lead so will need someone with strength. I am at work all day so i let him out in the morning for the toilet and breakfast and when i come home i let him out again for a walk and feed him his tea, he then gets let out once again before bed time. Hamm is a beautiful softie and companion he loves a cuddle on the couch or in bed he likes to be lazy but equally loves to play (his favourite is tug of war).
