Description
Dog Breed: American Bulldog (short coat). Adoption Fee: 410. ARCHIE (watch my video!) Male, neutered 3 years old American Bulldog 60 lbs. Microchipped, up-to-date on core vaccines and takes monthly flea/tick/heartworm prevention Follow Archie on Instagram at #lovepaws_archie Archie says, "let's play ball, ya'll!" Bouncy and happy Archie escaped death row at the local animal shelter after being found as a malnourished stray. Archie's a playful pup who loves footballs (well, any kind of ball will do, really) and long walks. He is so excited to explore the neighborhood that he can be a bit of a puller at times but is learning quickly and improving daily. We recommend that his adoptive home have a fenced yard for the times when he needs more exercise than a walk can provide. Archie is curious about the cats in his foster home so he should do well with dog-savvy cats and proper introductions. He has also met different ages of kids on walks and has been friendly to all. Archie loves his people and will shower them with limitless kisses and attention, but being an introvert, he does best in a calm household with people who will allow him to set the pace of interactions before becoming besties. He is a well-mannered boy and loves his crate. He enjoys a good game of tug of war and his favorite chicken jerky treats. He already knows sit and down and is eager to learn more.

Breed overview
American Bulldog
Overview:
Originally used in the 17th century for bull baiting—a wagering sport in which dogs fought bulls in a ring—Bulldogs had taller, more athletic frames (much like the Olde English Bulldogge). When bull baiting was outlawed in 1835, Bulldogs were bred to be kinder, heavier and more relaxed. However, American Bulldogs—which were brought to the U.S. before this breeding pattern—retained the size and strength of the original Bulldogs. Great family dogs, American Bulldogs are sweet to children. They love family-oriented occasions and want to be involved. With proper training and socialization, you’ll find them outgoing and exceedingly loyal. Some American Bulldogs will go to great lengths to protect their masters. Tough and determined, American Bulldogs have an impressive stamina and strength. They are always game for playtime in the back yard or working in the field.
