Marshmallow is still looking for his forever home!
American Bulldog / Mastiff (short coat)
Medium Adult Male
4 years old (estimated)
80 lbs.
Neutered & up to date on all his shots
Background: Marshmallow was found outside my dance studio, hiding from the intense FL sun, under a shady tree. I recognized him as a dog that was abandoned in a nearby auto shop lot, they moved out and left him locked inside the gate to starve. He got out, and was found a few blocks away. He was very scared and hesitant of people and absolutely filthy, he appeared to be a grey dog, I knew he was actually a white dog. He’s since been given several baths, and is now back to his real color. We got him scanned for a microchip (he doesn’t have one) and posted him on all the local boards for lost/missing pets to no luck. We are now fostering him at the bakery until he finds his forever home.
Temperament: He’s a super sweet, affectionate, happy dog. When I rescued him, he was so scared and unsure, then after 2 days of love, food, water, toys and a safe, indoor place to live, he completely came out of his shell. He is so sweet, loves to give kisses now, his tag wags so much as soon as he sees you, he’s really a completely different dog. He has probably spent his whole life outdoors, in a lot or on the street, so he doesn’t know many commands, though he is very gentle on a leash. He is somewhat house broken and is crate trained. He is a gentle giant that absolutely loves attention. He just wants to be pet, give kisses and be around people now. He’s very low key, he’s a mellow dog, he’ll just chill all day. He has been around other dogs, and he seems like he would be fine with another dog with the proper introduction (I don’t know about cats, as we don’t have any to test with)
Here is a video of Marshmallow enjoying some love after his first ever bath, probably of his life.

Health: We have taken him to be neutered and he is up to date on all his shots. We have paid for all those costs out of pocket to get him taken care of. He has some sores and calluses on his legs, from a life on concrete, but hair is growing back in now on a few of them. He has some skin irritation, which will be looked at this week. He has the scars and marks of a dog that’s had to fend for himself for his whole life, but that hasn’t stopped him from becoming the sweetest Marshmallow we’ve ever met.
