More about Stevie

Meet Stevie

Stevie has recently arrived in our care from the Ashburton Pound. This lovely Staffy girl is still very new to us, but she has already shown she has a lot of love and loyalty to give to her people.

Stevie is estimated to be around 4–5 years old and is a typical affectionate Staffy who enjoys human company. She appears to have had a fairly limited life experience so far, and is still learning about some of the basics, including walking comfortably on a lead or harness. Our team has begun working with her on these skills and she is already making progress.

Stevie would also benefit from losing a little weight, and with regular exercise and the right routine she should start to feel much better.

As Stevie has only just arrived, she is yet to be mixed with other dogs and has not been cat tested, so we will continue to assess her and share updates as we get to know her better. One thing we do know already is that she has been excellent with the vets, handling examinations once she gets her zoomies out the way!

Stevie at a glance:
• Staffy, estimated 4–5 years old
• Sweet, loyal girl who enjoys human company
• Working on her lead walking skills
• Needs a little help getting back to a healthy weight
• Yet to be mixed with dogs or cat tested
• Great with the vets
• Best suited to a home with older, dog-savvy children

Stevie is a lovely girl who simply needs a home willing to help her experience more of the world and give her the care and routine she deserves. We look forward to sharing more about her as she settles in with us.
