Mia: 2 years, mastiff X Staffy
Mamma Mia .... here we go again!
Another Staffy-cross, used for pups and discarded by owners who let her down. She weighs in at around 18kgs and only stands at knee height. She is a ball of muscle with an easy-care coat and a smile for days.
Mia came to us with little to no training. Her carers are working hard with her and she is coming along, she will therefore need a new owner who is prepared to continue this work to help her live her best and calmest life. Mia will only be rehomed to an experienced doggy home and preferably to someone familiar with Staffy breeds and traits.
Mia was excited to meet a dog the same size as her but can not be around pocket pets, chooks, birds or smaller dogs.
The resident cat is currently putting her in her place, but if given the chance to chase smaller animals she may take it. This is not a dog for dog parks, dog beaches or living in tight suburbia. If you can offer her a home with adults and teenagers in a calm environment, she will make a loyal and loving people dog.

Sasha:12 months mastiff X rottweiler
Introducing the big beautiful Sasha!
Sasha is a 12 month old Mastiff cross Rottweiler.
Sasha is currently in foster care with another dog, but due to her size we would recommend a playmate of similar size.
Sasha is currently learning some basic training like how to sit on command and would love for her furever family to continue her training as she is a very smart dog and picks things up quickly.
Sasha is very affectionate, although due to her size her foster parents would highly recommend older children or children who have experience with larger dogs. Sasha is a very playful dog.
Sasha would be happy to go to a forever home with another playmate of similar size, but this isn't essential.
She is currently an outside dog and would need some house training but we are sure she would pick this up quickly.
Sasha will need a secure yard with high fencing.
Sasha would make the perfect addition to any family.
