Who do you live with?
My favorite person is my human foster sister, because she takes me to her room when she’s doing homework, and we sit on her bed for hours together! I just melt when I am with her! I have a foster mom, dad, sister, brother, dog foster brother, and two kitty sisters.
WHERE DO YOU HANG OUT WHEN YOU ARE HOME ALONE?
There have only been a few times I’ve been alone, but I stay in my crate when my foster family goes out. I happily go into my crate with no issues! I’m a very good boy, right?
WHERE DO you sleep?
I sleep with my foster parents in their bed, with my foster dog brother, and sometimes even one of the cats! I do have a crate next to their bed, and sometimes they will put me in there for the night. I really want to be with humans as much as possible, so I whine for a few minutes, but then I drift off to sleep.
DO YOU LIKE WALKING ON A LEASH?
Yes, I have been working really hard to have better manners and I can’t wait to show you what a good boy I am! And just wait until you see my trot – it’s quite the sight to behold!
DO YOU HAVE ANY “NOT SO GREAT” HABITS THAT WE SHOULD KNOW ABOUT?
When I get excited, I sometimes forget my manners. When we’re getting ready to go outside, I tend to get overly rambunctious with my foster dog brother. I am getting better at this, but there is still some work I continue to do. I mentioned I’m a young pup, right? There’s always work to be done to become the best I can be!
ARE YOU HOUSE TRAINED (DO YOU GO POTTY OUTSIDE)?
With consistency, I have learned to go potty outside. We do not have a backyard at my foster home, so I need to be taken out each time for a break, which is why we go out every three hours or so. If you show me where you want me to go and teach me to have a good routine, I will catch on quickly. Patience, please!
DO YOU LIKE WATER?
Oh yeah, I LOVE it! It is so much fun playing with water from the hose! I also love when humans are in the shower and invite me in! This makes it really easy to bathe me! But I’m not built for large bodies of water, so if we go to a lake or other body of water, please make sure I am kept safe with a life vest!
WHAT DO YOU LOVE ABOUT YOUR FOSTER FAMILY?
They have given me boundaries, support, love, and a calm setting. They are teaching me so many new things and I am doing the best I can to make them proud! It took almost two months before they got a tail wag, but now that happens all the time!
WHAT WAS YOUR LIFE LIKE BEFORE BEING BROUGHT INTO NORCAL BULLY BREED RESCUE?
Well, let’s just say it wasn’t the ideal living situation for a sensitive little guy like me. I was loved, but my previous humans were not able to take care of me. NorCal Bully Breed Rescue understood that I needed help and they took me in so I can find a loving home where I will thrive and enjoy the long, fabulous life that I was meant to live. I would love to come home with you so we can have all the fun times together forever!
WHAT IS YOUR ADOPTION FEE?
$400
What do you look like?
I am a very handsome fawn colored lowrider with light caramel above my eyes, a white star between my eyes and on my neck, a white belly, front white paws and I even have two different colored toenails on the same paw! I have the most perfect underbite with an errant snaggletooth that is pretty much always poking through, and my tongue is almost always sticking out of my mouth.
WHat do you like to eat?
I love my kibble, but I won’t say no to peanut butter, Greek yogurt, blueberries, carrots, bananas, bell pepper….and did I mention peanut butter??
What kind of personality Do you have?
I am curious about everything. If you’re doing something, I will be there to check it out and give my sniff of approval. I am very loving and really want to be included in all the events. If given the chance, I would spend a lot of my time sitting right on top of you because I love to cuddle! I can be very expressive vocally when I want to communicate with you. Foster mom says it’s whining, but I say I’m just making my opinions known!
Describe your perfect day
Most days start off as I wake from a long sleep all wrapped up like a burrito. When I decide to get up, it’s time for a potty break, then breakfast. After that, my foster dad and I go to work. We take a break every three hours so I can go for a little walk. After work, we pile in the car and head to a nearby levee for a long walk, then come home to eat dinner. Nighttime is spent in the family room with my foster family either in my bed or on the couch with my foster mom for cuddles before bedtime.
What is your favorite Toy?
B-A-L-L-S!! I am crazy for BALLS! I have figured out that if someone wants me to give it up, they must trade me for it by giving me a treat! Pretty clever, huh? I also love to chew on a bone in the late afternoon!
Do You Know any Tricks?
Yes! I know sit, out of the kitchen, wait, off, bed, crate. I will wait at the door until you say ‘’let’s go!” and I am learning good leash manners. I also wait at each crosswalk when I’m on a walk. I am a pretty young pup, so I am always learning new things, which can sometimes be tricky in itself! (Hey, you asked about tricks, right?)
What Scares you?
I am a small boy, so I don’t like it when people come over the top of my head to pet me. I am working on this, but please make sure people understand that to set me up for success when meeting new people. Once I am comfortable, head pets are just fine!
I’m also working on how not to be afraid when meeting new people. I’ve come a long way since I’ve been with my foster family and they have helped me to learn to trust new people. I’m also working with an awesome trainer named Sean who’s helping me work through these fears. My adopter will need to understand that I need to take things slooooow when meeting new folks. I’m so sweet once I get to know people, but I just don’t want to be rushed!
Have you been around children?
I would prefer a home with adults only.
Do you like cats?
Yes! There are two cats in my foster home and I have no issues being with them! One of my kitty sisters comes on pack walks with us!
How do you feel about other DOGS?
I have a dog in my foster home and we get along great! Out on walks, I am learning to ignore other dogs and am doing well with this training.
If you could be anywhere, where would it be?
Oh I think it would be so much fun to be riding shotgun in an RV touring the country to see all the national parks! I love car rides because that means we’re going on an adventure! If we can’t do that, I am just as happy to be by your side, playing ball, or sitting together, with me inching my way to your lap! It’s really all about hanging with my humans, no matter where that might be!
HOw's your health?
My health is good! I have a front leg that is a little wonky, but it doesn’t stop me from doing all the fun stuff! I love going on walks, but maybe I won’t be running any marathons, OK? But I can run really fast– just try to catch me! And you should see my zoomies! Epic!
