Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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


Achilles is a Blue and White American Bully APBT mix and was purchased from a backyard breeder (whom stated he had an “accident litter” to find homes for) when he was 7 weeks old. He is roughly 90lbs, is not neutered, and is currently behind on his vaccinations. I have had him the entirety of his life, and introduced him to everyone we saw! He was timid (always staying behind me) but nonetheless a sweet and wonderful boy, that only wanted to make everyone happy. As he got older, he has gotten less and less receptive of strangers. He cowers back, will ask you to stay back, but will approach, smell, and soon warms up to everyone! Small children >10 are not his favorite people, due to my niece being animal magnetized and terrorizing him with her toys. Some people (confident people) he warms up to immediately, and will quickly give you the biggest kisses and leans so hard for back scratches that he may just knock you off your feet! He is great with other dogs, and cats (gets excited!)
