Angel is the newest member of our household.
After our dog Joep died, we decided we did not want another dog. We both work, the kids, although still living at home, have their own lives. But the loss remained, the longing for a dog got stronger and stronger.
We couldn't resist, we wanted a new dog.
An older dog from the shelter. We wanted a wonderful dog with good behaviour if possible, which nobody wanted. Just a dog to give a home for his or her last years.
Boy, did we get lucky. We found Angel. Nobody wanted her, she has lived in the shelter of one and a half years. She is the best. She is happy, friendly, she listens so well, she walks on the leash perfectly. I can't understand why nobody wanted her. Maybe because she is an American Staphordshire. That breed isn't too popular here, but she truly is a miracle. She has been with us for only half a day, but I am totaly in love!

OMG Jeannette, you are made something so wonderful! I'm sending you strong virtual hug! I can understand the pain from your loss (so sorry about that, sincere condolence!), and to find strength to give more love is wonderful! But you have my strongest admiration for the decision to choose an adult dog! I'm sure that the change in her life is so big, that she jump from happiness!

Oh, what a cute face she have! Please post or better scrap some pics together, I'd love to see the happy family! Bravo, bravo! And congrats!

I could not have said it better myself. You are a true hero in my eyes to bring this gorgeous lady into your family. I am so happy for you and thrilled for Angel that she found a fabulous family to love her.

congrats on your new family member, she looks sweet

unfortunately pit bulls ( which a American Staphordshire is ) are not allowed so many places . they are banned in my city and the outlying cities do not allow then in apartments. when i adopted zoey last year i had to adopt a dog that did not even look like it has bully in it.

As a momma to a rescued pittie mix, this always makes me so mad. The pathetic thing about mine is that she is scared of *everything* -including a 2' cardboard cut out of Danny DeVito hahaha!! But she is the sweetest thing and I am sure that Angel is too!
