Bibs Bids for a Better Base

This American Staffordshire Terrier is available for adoption through Secondhand Hounds.

Both her foster parent Mitzi Heinrich and Secondhand Hounds’ large dog foster coordinator Bethany Madlo said they couldn’t say enough good things about Bibs (who Madlo also affectionately refers to as Bibbles, Bibsy and Bibbers). But they both gave it a try anyway.

“Her smile is absolutely infectious,” Madlo said. 

Heinrich, who has been taking care of Bibs for the past month, said she is a fabulous dog who is down to earth, loves to snuggle, and gets along great with every dog and person she meets.

Bibs, an American Staffordshire Terrier, is close to housebroken and is not crate-trained, though that may not be necessary, as Heinrich said she is not destructive when left alone in the house. 

With a winning personality and a striking features, Heinrich said photos don’t do Bibs justice. Perhaps you’ll have to meet her in person instead. If you are interested in adopting Bibs, fill out an adoption application on the Secondhand Hounds website.
