Burt is a gentle giant and a perfect cuddle-buddy. This gray and white American Staffordshire Terrier is looking for the right family to call his own.

According to Broward County Animal Care, Burt is two years old, well-behaved, and dog-friendly. He loves to play and is always up for a game of fetch. This gorgeous pup is eager to please: he obeys commands well and takes the treats gently.

Staff and volunteers say it’s easy to get lost in his beautiful eyes. Burt is a great dog that would be a perfect companion for a family with a big yard and active lifestyle.

Like many other large dogs at the Broward Animal Care and Adoption Center, Burt needs a kennel break. The shelter is running over capacity and needs the public to come out and adopt or foster pets.

To adopt Burt (A2183103), foster, or take a dog out for lunch, email the shelter at foster@broward.org. To schedule a meet-and-greet appointment and learn more about adoptable pets, email ACADadoptions@broward.org.

The Adoption Center at Broward County Animal Care is located at 2400 SW 42 Street, Fort Lauderdale, and is open Tuesday through Sunday from 11 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.

Adoptions are at no cost and include spaying/neutering, vaccinations, a microchip, and a Broward County pet license tag.
