KAYA - AMERICAN BULLDOG / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: American Bulldog / Mixed (short coat). *Courtesy Post of a Very Special Girl* Hello ALL my friends, and YES, everyone is my friend! My name is Kaya and I'm a 4 year old female American Bulldog Mix but my foster mom thinks there might be a bit of baby hippo mixed in. I'm a BIG chunk of love weighing in at about 75 pounds and I'm here to bring to bring joy, love, and happiness to you...but know I'm a on the lazy side so you will need to provide me with a comfy bed or sturdy lap to lounge on! Please read more about me below: PERSONALITY: Kaya is a goof and a love bug! There’s not much she takes too seriously. Besides treats. Treats are serious business! She will do just about anything for a treat. She even thinks her own kibble is a treat! She’s overall an easy dog that is sweet, happy, cuddly and isn’t overly energetic. She loves playing and is a bulldozer but relaxes and naps most of the day too. She doesn’t require mass amounts of exercise and is more than happy to lounge around in bed and watch tv with her humans. Oh! Almost forgot! She snores. It’s not quiet so possibly investing in ear plugs is a good idea! KIDS: Yes! But how tough are your kids? She is a stumpy legged, thick bodied, giant headed, wrecking ball. No human, big nor small gets treated differently by Kaya, she loves them all. She thinks everyone is at the party for her so beware of being smooshed as she plays. She will then apologize by smothering your face with kisses and butt wiggles. She has lived with 3 kids, ages 3, 5 and 8. For the most part she is a lazy hippo letting kids of all ages pet and sleep next to her. Occasionally she will get the zoomies so littles need to be prepared to seek higher ground when Kaya tucks her legs under and kicks it into high speed. CRATE TRAINED: Perfection. Kaya never barks in it, chews, destroys, or has accidents while in her crate. She is also great with free roam once adjusted to a new environment. She happily snoozes in an open crate during the day if you’re working from home. No separation anxiety or barking while her humans are hard at work paying her food bills. POTTY TRAINED: Kaya will do her business on command on leash. She has never had an accident in her foster home. She lets out little whimpers letting you know she needs to go. A proper and tidy lady is what she is. HOME RECOMMENDATIONS: Family, or single human. She is ready to love all! There’s not much she takes too seriously. Besides treats. Treats are serious business! She will do just about anything for a treat. She even thinks her own kibble is a treat! She’s overall an easy dog that is sweet, happy, cuddly and isn’t overly energetic. This hilarious girl also loves her stuffies! She'll grab and go while frequently hitting herself in the head with them. OTHER DOGS in HOME: At this time, we’re listing her as an only dog. Dog intros are tough. Kaya gets overstimulated and just goes right in. Other dogs don’t enjoy this. She does not have any barrier aggression and does not react when she meets another dog through a fence (foster mom has video of this) or on leash. Kaya had to become somewhat of a dominant female to have survived for 3 months on the streets protecting herself. We are open to intros with a larger (50lb +) submissive male dog and continue to work on her impulse control. CATS: No…let’s go with no. No seems like a solid plan due to her HIGH PREY DRIVE. If you're loving for a huge head full of love, has jowls for days, can be a bulldozer but enjoys her naps most of the day this goofy love bug is for you! And as a bonus Kaya does not require mass amount of exercise. To meet this sweet adorable hippo, please apply at .HavenAnimalRescueNebraska and be ready to fall in love! COURTESY POST!
