BEATRICE - AMERICAN BULLDOG / BOSTON TERRIER / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: American Bulldog / Boston Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Meet Beatrice! She’s a nearly 1 year old, 20 lb little sweetheart. Affectionately known as Beezus or Miss B, she’s more convinced she’s royalty than a regular dog, and honestly, we haven’t had the heart to tell her otherwise. Beatrice came to us after being surrendered to a local shelter, where it quickly became clear she was having serious trouble with both of her back legs. She often scooted instead of walking, and we soon learned she had a condition called bilateral luxating patella, grade 4…meaning both of her kneecaps were permanently out of place. Luckily, surgery offered a fix. She’s now completed both procedures and is recovering beautifully in her foster home. After the first surgery, her ability to walk improved dramatically, and once fully healed from her second, she’ll be ready to enjoy an active, pain-free life full of walks, playtime, and cozy naps. Miss B is housebroken, kennel trained, and walks politely on a leash. She gets along wonderfully with both male and female dogs and would do great in a home with another friendly pup, or as the solo star of the show. Her number one request is simple: she wants to be near her people. Whether she’s curled up on your lap or snoozing at your feet, she’s happiest by your side. She may snore a little when she’s sleeping, but that’s just her way of telling you she feels safe and loved. Because she still has some puppy-like mouthing during play, older children would be a better match for her energy. With plenty of toys and chew bones, she’s learning to channel her excitement in all the right ways. This princess travels well in the car, enjoys new adventures, and settles in her exercise pen when home alone. What she really wants, though, is someone to love her endlessly and let her be the little lap dog she knows she was born to be. If you’ve got room in your heart and on your couch, Beatrice would love to meet you. She’s spayed, fully vetted and vaccinated, microchipped, on preventatives, and ready to meet you.
