Fiona

Fiona the Staffy – Your New Best Mate (Shoes Not Included… Probably)

Let us introduce you to Fiona — a 7-year-old Staffy with a big heart, a cheeky streak, and a serious talent for cuddles. She’s been part of the same family since she was a pup, but with a new (very loud) baby on the scene, Fiona has politely let it be known she’s ready for a quieter life. Honestly, who can blame her?

Fiona is all about her people. She’s affectionate, smart, and a total snuggle bug. Her happy place? Curled up on the couch like a little donut, with a stolen shoe tucked under her chin. Yep — Fiona’s a shameless shoe thief. But don’t worry, she’s never destroyed a single one. She just likes to sleep with them. It’s weird. It’s adorable. We’re not questioning it.

Still got a bit of puppy energy, Fiona loves to play — especially if it involves toys she can parade around in her mouth while making hilarious cow-like noises. She shows off with them like she’s putting on a talent show just for you. She jumps in happy little circles when she’s excited, and she’s obsessed with tennis balls (return rate: about 25%, but she’s proud of every attempt). She absolutely launches herself into the car if she thinks a lake or beach adventure is on the cards — water is her happy place.

She’s super clever and already knows sit, shake, drop, and how to wait like a lady until she hears “1, 2, 3 — GO!” before diving into her dinner. She loves food, loves people, and definitely thinks she’s a lap dog — especially if you’re sitting in a camping chair. You’ve been warned.

Fiona’s looking for a home where she can be your one-and-only (although she’s currently living with a boy Staffy), with no young kids and no chaos. She wants calm vibes, cuddles, car trips, and a warm place indoors to call her own. She’s fully house-trained, easy in the car, and a total sweetheart.
What Fiona’s into:
People (especially ones with snacks)

Toys, tennis balls, and showing off
Making cow sounds while holding toys
Jumping in happy little circles when excited
Camp chairs (as a lap dog, obviously)
Beach trips, lake dips, car rides
Stealing your shoes to cuddle, not chew
Curled-up naps and couch time

Being told she’s a good girl (because she is)

What Fiona’s not into:
Loud kids
Being left out in the cold
Returning tennis balls reliably

If you’re looking for a loyal, funny, low-key legend of a dog who’s past the puppy nonsense but still full of personality, Fiona might just be your perfect match.
