American Staffordshire Terrier

🧠 Temperament

Yoyo is 10 years old, sweet as pie, and slow-moving--in other words, she's perfection. Confident, loyal and very people-focused, with the same goofy streak as other bully breeds.

🎾 Exercise

She has hip dysplasia and arthritis, so leisurely walks and gentle play are all the exercises needed to keep this big mama happy and healthy. High — 60+ minutes daily plus mental work.

✂️ Grooming

Minimal. Short coat, occasional brushing, needs a coat in winter.

🏙️ In a NYC apartment

Frequently caught by building breed restrictions. Check your lease. Otherwise a clean, adaptable and affectionate city dog.

Adoption fee $150
