Current on vaccinations, neutered, and microchipped. Current on flea preventative and heartworm preventative. 



This pet adoption has additional requirements and considerations due to breed and age:

• 
  
  For a puppy under 6 months old, please note that we are looking for homes where someone is home frequently, or that arrangements have been made for someone to come home at least once during the day to allow the dog to go out for a potty break. Puppies should remain socialized to other dogs in their formative stages, so homes that can provide exposure to fully vaccinated and healthy well-behaved adult dogs is strongly preferred.
  
  
  
   


• 
  
  We ask that anyone applying take the extra obligation of owning this breed seriously, which means that you understand you must always strive for a any bully breed-type dog to be an ambassador for the breed.
