About Astra - 9 Week Old Staffy X (Trial)
If you are looking for a best friend who will be the most loyal, affectionate, funny and playful dog you can stop scrolling because you have found your soul mate with the beautiful Astra!
Astra is such a fun loving yet gentle little soul who just loves life. She is a laid back little chic who just loves to chill out with her people or fur friends alike. Astra is a gentle and affectionate pup who cannot get enough of her body on-top of you, always the first to ask for pats.
Astra loves to play with any toy she can sink her teeth into. She looks adorable trying to fit some of her foster siblings big dog toys into her mouth to drag around the yard - dodging her brother, Titan (also up for adoption) who is following close behind. And cracking up her foster humans. Astra loves playing with her sibling and foster siblings (2 x 10yo Staffies) when not asking for pats or giving all her love to her foster humans.
Astra absolutely loves her food, which means she will be great to train. Astra is incredibly smart and has already learned to sit and wait patiently for treats and dinner and is working on stay and come. She also worked out how to use the dog door on her own (surprising her foster mum on day 2). She is working on her toilet training and improving every single day. Astra is also crate trained and sleeps in a crate over night.
Astra would suit a family with a fun loving nature who can provide an enriched life for her to live. Astras new family will need to be committed to supporting her development with puppy training. Astra will need someone home more often than not as she is still having 3 meals a day.

Astra's adoption fee is $700 which includes her desexing when she is old enough. It also includes her first two vaccinations. She has been treated for fleas and worms, and is microchipped.
Astra is in foster care in Cameron Park, NSW.
