6 months old

Meet Little Bettie — the sweetest girl just looking for her forever family. She is a 6-month-old, Lab x Staffy who will be large sized when fully grown.

From the moment Bettie arrived, she surprised us with how quickly she settled in. As fosters, we were blown away by how naturally she fit in with our home and routine. She adores rough-and-tumble play with our dog but also listens well when it’s time to wind down.

Bettie loves adventures and has pretty solid recall — she's always up for a fun outing. When it comes to favourites, it’s a tie between food and cuddles! She’ll happily snuggle up on the couch and likes to remind you when its dinner time.

She’s not a big barker — only giving a little alert when someone arrives at the house, followed by a friendly greeting and a request for pats.

One of the cutest things about her? The little “chats” she has with us when she’s excited to tell us about her day.

Smart and eager to please, Bettie is toilet trained and picks up tricks quickly thanks to her love of treats. She’s also learning what not to do — a fast and willing learner.

She’s perfectly content being left in her crate during the day or overnight, and her gentle, loving nature makes her a perfect fit for almost any caring family.

Bettie really is a special girl — affectionate, well-behaved, and full of love to give.
