Adopt a American Bulldog / Boxer / Mixed (short coat)

American Bulldog / Boxer / Mixed (short coat) Dog

Sparky the Dog needs a home

Sparky is what ewe one of what we call an "Ambassadors" for the breed. This beautiful 6 year old, 65lb love bug comes into rescue through no fault of his own. Sparky loved his family, and they loved him  But due to a divorce, his mom and kids had to move and they could not find an affordable place to live that allowed dogs of his breed and size.. Sparky is fully vetted, potty trained, and will even let you know when he has to go out. Sparky was trained, and knows many commands such as sit, down, heel, etc. and wants to please his owner/family.

 

Since Sparky comes from a home with 2 three year twin boys, he is accustomed to the behavior of young kids. However, it would be best if the kids in the home were older since he doesn't know his own strength,  



Sparky loves to interact  and play with other dogs, big or small, female or male. He needs daily exercise and mental stimulation, he loves toys and interactive games. His energy level can still be like a young dog. If he gets his exercise in, he loves to cuddle and chill. His ideal setting is having a fenced yard,   preferred but run out his excitement. He would go on as many walks or hikes a day as someone will take him.SO


 


He really wants to be with his family and be doing activities with them - he is protective of family and home but is very friendly when introduced properly. Note: he is not great in large group/crowded settings as he can get overwhelmed and reactive. He also gets very excited when out walking and needs a strong/experienced person to lead him on walks.   He should be crated or put in another room if his family is having lots of people and activity in his home, as this makes him anxious....he is definitely a one family kind of guy.  He just doesn't like crowds or group settings.  He is accustomed to sleeping with or near his people on a comfortable dog bed.


 


If you feel that you can offer a life time of love and commitment to Sparky, please submit an application.  Please be sure that you meet the requirements stated above, a=je and the time to give this big fella lots of exercise.  He is an amazing dog, who is looking for a new home due to his parents divorce. He was adopted from MMR as a pup, and has always been loved and well cared for.
