Jarvis

Jarvis is an adoptable male Staffordshire Bull Terrier looking for a home at BARC Animal Shelter in Houston, Texas. He is a young adult and medium in size. He is listed on the shelter's euthanasia list, listed due to lack of space, and that date has now passed. Shelters often move these dates, so Jarvis may still be waiting. The shelter can confirm.

He is easy to leash, walks nicely on a loose or semi-loose leash and has shown friendly curiosity toward other dogs, approaching to sniff with a loose body and swaying tail, even when another dog vocalized. He can sometimes become nervous outside, freezing, whining, pulling, or trying to escape the runs by digging at the fence.
