My story

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

Our handsome gentle giant Boss is officially looking for his forever home!

He is great with other dogs (he prefers they're not too hyper - as he's a fan of a more low-key life). He would be fine in a home with another dog that will give him his space but engage in play occasionally when solicited. He'd also really love being your one and only! Boss is great with all humans he meets, big and small. He is very large, so does have the potential to knock over little ones easily. He's potty trained, and off leash trained as well. Boss is a smart boy who learns fast, and really just wants to be around his people! He would be best in a home without cats, and would love a home with a yard.

Boss may have ongoing allergies, so will need to be monitored for the duration of his life in case of any flare ups (occasional antibiotics and other treatments could be necessary). We are looking for an experienced home for Boss. He's very strong on leash, and definitely needs structure. He will climb on couches/laps to snuggle, and sometimes we think he doesn't know just how big he is! Boss is around 2y old and he is considered an "XL Bully".

If you are interested in adopting Boss, please go to our website and fill out an adoption application. (First time dog owners will not be considered - preference will be given to those with experience with large breed dogs/pitbulls.)
