Why I need a new home

Relocating

My story

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

Nessie is looking for a sweet family to love her. She is a beautiful and loving American bulldog with a great temperament. We got her with the plan of purchasing land and building a home. Unfortunately that has not happened and with our current yard she gets zero exercise. She needs a yard to play in! We have no option of a fence with unaccepting neighbors so she is either in her kennel, on a short walk on a leash or on her runner. She is very loved and cared for but deserves so much better than what we can possibly give her in the near future. After a year, we have finally come to the conclusion that it’s not happening realistically for atleast another year. By that time it will be completely unnecessary and heartbreaking. She does great with our 4 kids and their small purse dogs as well as a cat and chickens. Super fun with a lot of energy and not much acknowledgment of her size. I believe she is somewhat house trained but I haven’t given her the chance to prove it so it’s unclear.
