Description
Dog Breed: American Bulldog. King may be shy, but beneath his reserved nature lies a heart full of love. Weighing around 82 pounds, this sweet cuddle bug is looking for a home where he can continue to grow and feel safe. When King first arrived, he was overwhelmed—his whole life had been spent with just his owner, and the shelter was a big, scary change. Thanks to the patience and care of our staff, King has made incredible progress. At first, he only went outside for potty breaks (yes, this boy is fully housetrained!), but now he enjoys walks and even the occasional run around our facility. Every day, we see him grow into the strong, brave King he was meant to be. Despite his progress, shelter life is still stressful for King. He needs a home with no other animals and patient, loving people who will continue to help him build confidence. Just because he came to us at 8 years old, scared and unsure, doesn’t mean his story is over—King still has so much love to give and a bright future ahead. Could you be the one to show him the life he deserves?

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.
