My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

located in Redding
approved applicant picks up here or possibly owner will meet half way
has to be a great matching home

apply at
www.sadt.info

Yes the breed still has a bad rap very sad as this breed is just as good or better then any other
if you are a true Bullie lover you know and will love to meet and adopt this very well trained housedog
he lived and was raised with older folks who no longer can care for him so the son took over but cannot keep him for personal reasons
Rocco is a healthy fully vetted 5 year old easy going boy
He has been around kids but never lived with any same goes for other dogs
Rocco lives a quiet lifestyle would love the same
as a single dog at home since that's how he has lived we want similar for him no huge changes

I met Rocco myself took the many pics and videos
he is a real nice dog that has been loved by his owners and well cared for
Rocco was the current owners daughters dog who is working so much that there was no time for Rocco so her parents took him in to find him a suitable home
He lived most of his life in WA recently moved here to Redding adjusting to the heat and loosing a few needed pounds going for daily slow long walks which he loves to do
looking for a walking partner he would be great for the young retired or a calmer younger family that has time
but also could be a single persons sidekick hanging out playing some fetch and going whereever you are going
he has been very well socialized and likes being around people
He is currently living with a senior male Pug they do get along but since he has always lived as only dog
before may suit him much better unless there's a nice medium energy female dog his size which should be between 50-60 pounds once he looses a couple more by the end of summer
If you are a Bullie lover you will love this boy who comes straight out of a loving home not traumatized from being dumped at a shelter and his whole past is known as he lived with the same people since he was a pup
so no surprises

if you are looking for a great trained companion apply here
once approved you can chit chat with his owner

Below find what Roccos caretaker are saying

Rocco is very obedient and disciplined as well as fully housebroke
Rocco is a sporty guy that loves to play fetch
will drop it on command
he knows his basic commands
comes when called
and the perfect outgoing companion
for a fun and active family and kids of all ages
(but he's not hyper can chill easily and will do whatever you do​​​​​​​
after a game of fetch or and a walk he would love to hang out with you
he's not used to being on furniture but would most likely love to watch tv on the couch with you)
He is also great with other dogs so is a joy to take to the beach or dog park and he just loves riding in the car
Rocco is a gorgeous smoochy dog with a big smile
He's great with new people and loves everyone he meets.
He also loves his alone time and is comfy lounging around the house or rolling in the grass​​​​
