About Herb - 6 Month Old Staffy X
Herb is a big cutie who is showing big signs of independence and a love for the world already!
Herb is an adventurous and inquisitive little pup who is looking for the home of his dreams! Herb is outgoing and loves playing with his dog friends but is equally as happy to curl up next to you on the couch in between for a big snooze! Whilst he is a curious puppy he is mostly very good at chewing his toys and bones and is learning to respect shoes and other belongings.
He is a happy, goofy and friendly boy. Herb would love another dog companion or children to play with and help him get out some of his energy. Such an entertaining little goofball, will try to play with his own reflection in the mirror. He loves to sprint around the yard and play, so needs a large yard to exercise in.
He is a fast learner and wants to please you. Herb is great with other dogs and even around horses! Herb is largely toilet trained and is doing very well with his training on lead walking and basic commands. As he is still a puppy he would benefit from an active family who can get him out and socialise him, as well as be committed to his training.
Herb needs secure fencing and a yard that is completely puppy proof! This means no under house access, no soft soil to get out under and no choke hazards lying around.
