Description
Dog Breed: Bull Terrier (short coat). Sheldon is a 12 year old Bull Terrier, he weighs about 35 pounds. Sheldon's human daddy can't physically care for him anymore so we took him in the rescue. He is at our vets but needs a home or a foster home ASAP. Sheldon is a sweet boy with a very happy tail, he is house trained and leash trained. We updated him on his vaccines and added a Librela shot and he is seriously acting like a young boy again. We think he is mostly deaf but he is so happy to be with his humans. He is good with other dogs and kids, not sure about cats yet. If you have some love to give this boy please fill out an application from our website.

Overview:
The Bull Terrier, instantly recognizable by its unique egg-shaped head and small, triangular eyes, is a captivating breed with a rich history. Originating in 19th-century England as a cross between the Bulldog and the now-extinct White English Terrier, they were initially bred for fighting but quickly transitioned to companionship. Physically, they are sturdy and muscular, coming in two size varieties: Standard and Miniature, both boasting a short, dense coat that is easy to maintain. In terms of temperament, Bull Terriers are known for their playful, mischievous, and affectionate nature. They are highly energetic and intelligent, requiring consistent training and plenty of exercise to prevent boredom. While generally good with children when properly socialized, their high energy makes them better suited for active families. They can adapt to apartment living if their exercise needs are met, but a yard is often preferred. Health-wise, they can be prone to certain conditions like deafness, patellar luxation, and skin allergies, making regular veterinary check-ups essential for a long and happy life with these devoted companions.
