About Mack
This cool little dude is Mack, he has recently been rescued from the Albury Pound. It is hard to believe that such a small pup could be left to wander the streets and not have someone come to claim him.
Little Macka is your typical Staffy pup... playful, fun and loyal. He is rather intelligent and quick to learn, so this will be very good for his ongoing training. So far he has learnt to sit, he walks well on the lead, he can go in and out of the doggy door, he is crate training at the moment, and is almost housetrained.
Mack is very friendly, he loves his people, and just adores any attention he can get. He is great with other dogs and is very playful with them, sometimes getting a little too over active but is happy to be put in his place by the other dogs when he gets out of line.
Mack really does have typical Staffy traits, he loves to be around people and he will need to go to a new home that understands Staffies are a people focused breed, they love their humans and do not take well to being left alone in a backyard and not spending time with their family... as they love their family so much.
Mack is very cute and he is going to grow into a handsome boy, he will definitely bring much love and fun to his new household. However please do not apply to adopt Mack just because he is cute. His new family need to be committed to raising him as a family dog, he needs lots of socialisation at this age and in the future, he will need obedience training and have rules and a regime in place to ensure he matures in to a well adjusted, friendly and social dog.
We highly recommend Mack attend Puppy PreSchool, as this provides a good foundation for his obedience and socialisation.
Staffies are a very social dog, and they do not take well to being left alone in a backyard, of course they can spend time in the backyard and we are not saying they all need to live inside, but they can become quite depressed and often destructive if they are not provided with the stimulation and exercise they require.
At the moment Mack is living inside whilst we are home, and sleeps inside in his crate at night time. He goes outside when we are at work or not home for a long period of time, he is with other dogs including an adult Staffy and a Maltese.
Mack would be suitable in most homes, including those with or without children, as an only dog or as a friend for an existing pet. As long as he is provided with the time and love he deserves and requires.
