Meet Queso, a two-and-a-half-year-old Staffie mix weighing 43 pounds.

Queso is the perfect medium-sized pup with a larger-than-life personality! This outgoing, friendly boy never meets a stranger - he's always ready to make a new best friend. He has even met young kids and done extremely well with them!

In his photos, Queso may look very serious and distinguished... but don't be fooled. In real life, he's a total goofball. He's got the zoomies down to an art form and delivers a truly fantastic sploot that deserves its own fan club. Silly, playful, and full of charm, Queso keeps life fun.

He's incredibly personable and loves being part of the action, whether that's playtime in the yard or hanging out with his people. If you're looking for a dog who will make you laugh, keep you moving, and still be your loyal buddy at the end of the day, Queso is your guy.

This pet is available for adoption on 2/28/2026 at 9:20 AM at the Yakima Humane Society adoption center. If you recognize this animal please contact the adoption center at 509-457-6854.
