Description

Dog Breed: American Bulldog / Mixed (short coat). Please contact ADOPTION (adoptdoggieharmony) for more information about this pet. Adores kids Say hello to Koko! This ~3-year-old American Bully mix is in foster care but urgently needing a new foster or forever home as her current foster is taking a new job and can't keep her past March! She’s friendly, playful, affectionate, and full of love. She loves people, all kinds, adults and children so much she can barely hold back her love and excitement. Her entire body wags with love for people, she truly doesn't know a stranger! She has completed some training lessons and her foster is helping her maintain the commands she has learned. She’s a curious gal and loves to meet new people and engage with them. She loves squeaky toys (durable chewer toys are best), playing fetch, and staying mentally engaged with her Kong and Pupsicle. Koko loves belly rubs and taking naps and cuddling nonstop with you. Going on an adventure? Koko will ask you to please include her too! After being attacked twice by another dog in a former foster situation, Koko has learned to be more cautious. She still likes meeting other dogs but needs slow, thoughtful introductions to feel safe. For those who don’t know Koko’s story: She was found stray in Gwinnett County, adopted out, and later found stray again in Walton County. Animal Control couldn’t reach her owner and discovered he no longer lived at the address listed on her microchip. Koko was saved just in time by Castoff Pet Rescue. Koko has been doing wonderfully in her foster home, but she’s ready to find her forever family and needs urgent placement. She would do best in a home where she will be showered with love and affection. She would probably love being the only. dog so she can be a couch potato and get a ton of love. She does great going out and being social. She has been to numerous adoption events and does great with everyone and doesn't react to other dogs. She LOVES people and kids so much. After being attacked she can react to new dogs but never when she is out in public only at home. Age: 3 years Weight: 45 lbs Temperament: Gets along with kids and adults, dogs with slow intro, might be best as only dog.
