I'd like to be the one and only dog in my new home. I find cats a little too interesting, so best to keep them away. Due to my size and personality, I'm a better fit for homes with adults.

I would fit best with no animals as I don't know how to act around them. I am still an incredibly sweet girl who would love to be by my future owners' side taking up all of their attention. I am well-socialized with people and absolutely love receiving affection. Because I lived as an outside dog all of my life, I would need a loving pet parent to teach me basic house manners.

Sally, American Staffordshire terrier mix

Sally is a female American Staffordshire terrier mix currently housed at Sacramento SPCA.

Sally's ideal forever home would be a cat-free environment.

Sally's current caretakers say:

Sally is a fun-loving, sweet girl looking for her forever home. She is affectionate, loving and wants nothing more to curl up in your lap (although she might be a little too big for that). She loves to play fetch and walks super well on a leash according to our volunteers. Sally is looking for a BFF to snuggle up to — could you be the one?
