About Betty
Meet Betty, a delightful 7-year-old Staffy mix with a heart full of love and effortless charm. Betty is a sweet and gentle soul who has perfected the art of companionship, making her a compatible fit for families and individuals alike.
Betty loves nothing more than stepping out for a walk, where she can prance along beside her humans, soaking up the sights and sounds of the neighborhood. It's in these moments that her boundless joy truly shines. After a satisfying jaunt, she’s more than happy to engage in playtime with her handlers, revealing her playful nature and gentle demeanor.
Betty can have some anxieties when meeting new and unfamiliar faces, be it people or canine. Due to this we recommend a slow introduction when meeting Betty. We recommend a home with no dogs, cats, or children.
If you're looking for a loyal walking partner, and a new friend in your life, Betty is ready to shower you with affection and make your days brighter.

Adoption details
We are not open to walk ins, appointments by booking only. All households members must be present before we can adopt an animal out.
As our goal is to adopt animals out from the shelter into loving homes as fast as possible, multiple bookings may be made for the same animal.
We are not able to hold any animals for any reason.
As such, there is a possibility that the animal you may have found a forever home before your appointment. If this is the case we will inform you by phone call as soon as possible.
