Description
Dog Breed: American Bulldog. Looking for a sweet, low-key companion who's happiest curled up on a cozy bed? Gertrude is your gal. This 10-12 year-old bulldog is the definition of mellow. She enjoys the occasional leisurely stroll around the block, but is mostly a proud dog bed potato-naps are her love language! Gertrude has a calm, gentle demeanor and absolutely adores people. She's the perfect companion for someone who enjoys a quiet, snuggly presence around the house. She's still working on her house training (about 50% there), so a patient adopter who can help her keep up the good work would be ideal. Because of her age and build, stairs aren't really her thing-she's more of a "one-floor-living" kind of gal. If you have a soft spot for senior dogs and a cozy corner for Gertrude to call her own, she'll reward you with unconditional love, soulful eyes, and the sweetest snuggles around. Dogs are not placed on a first-come, first-served basis. We strive to find the perfect home for each animal. Applications may take up to 48 hours to process. ALL CAWS animals are fixed, microchipped, and vaccinated. Her adoption fee is $100.

Overview:
The American Bulldog, a powerful and athletic breed, boasts a fascinating lineage rooted in the working bulldogs brought to America by immigrants. These dogs were bred for various farm tasks, including herding and guarding, which contributed to their robust build and tenacious spirit. Physically, they are strong and muscular, typically weighing between 60-120 pounds, with a broad head, powerful jaws, and a short, dense coat that can come in various patterns, often with white as the predominant color. Temperamentally, American Bulldogs are known for being courageous, confident, and incredibly loyal to their families. While they possess a protective instinct, they are also affectionate and good-natured, making them excellent companions. They generally get along well with children and other pets when properly socialized, though their strength and energy require attentive supervision. Due to their active nature and need for space, American Bulldogs are best suited for homes with yards rather than small apartments. They thrive on regular exercise and mental stimulation, otherwise, they may develop destructive habits. Regarding health, while generally hardy, they can be prone to certain conditions like hip and elbow dysplasia, ichthyosis, and various allergies. Prospective owners should always seek out reputable breeders who conduct health screenings to ensure the well-being of their future furry friend.
