Description
Dog Breed: American Bulldog (short coat). Shayla has been enjoying her time in foster. Check out what her foster has to say about her! We have been loving our time with Shayla! We renamed her Stormy since she joined us right before the big winter storm :) She has been keeping us warm with all her cuddles & love! After picking her up, we took her to PetSmart to get essentials. She was a perfect girl in the store and was happy to pick out her own toy to take home. When we got home, she explored the house and jumped in the bathtub. We decided to follow her lead, grabbed the soap, and gave her a bath. She was such a good girl! Sheâs great with our daughter and did well when new people came in to our home. Sheâs claimed the corner of the couch with the fluffy pillows as her own. She loves to sleep in the bed and she has the cutest little snore. She sleeps all night. Sheâs house trained, knows âsitâ - in fact, sits immediately when she sees a treat!, and walks well on the leash. She loves treats so is very trainable! She loves playing with toys, particularly squeaky ones. She carries the toy around in her mouth & likes to play fetch - sometimes throwing the ball herself & chasing it! She loves going outside but then spends most of her time relaxing and being your little shadow. One of the cutest things she does is when she is SO happy to see you - she flops onto her back, presents her belly, and loves getting all the belly rubs & love. She really is the best!

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.
