Adopt a American Staffordshire Terrier
Cupcake the Dog needs a home
Cupcake came to Austin as a refugee from Hurricane Harvey, and today she's busy working on her higher education. She is in APA's Canine Good Citizen (CGC) program and works with a volunteer trainer several times a week toward the goal of passing the American Kennel Club's CGC test! Cupcake has been working hard to be a dog you can take anywhere with pride. To pass the CGC test, a dog must demonstrate obedience and general reliability in real world situations. Dogs in APA's CGC program learn to sit and down, walk nicely on leash, sit calmly when approached by strangers or another dog, won't approach people or dogs without permission, greet people appropriately, stay in a sit or down until told "free," and come when called. As part of APA's CGC program you can work with APA to continue to build a training relationship with Cupcake after adoption and get officially CGC certified for free! Check out a video about CGC: https://vimeo.com/89434193 This smart girl will be happy to show off her new skills for you, and then hang out with you for some butt scratches. Come take this sweetie for a walk and see if she's perfect for your home.
