This happy-go-lucky boy is Gulliver, an American pit bull mix picked up by one of our officers on 3/29 and brought to the Mesquite Animal Shelter. Gulliver weighs 70 pounds, is 3 years old and is neutered. He has a very interesting coat that is gray with streaks of light brown. Quite attractive! His ears are also unusual and he has the most adorable smile! It lights up his entire face! This fellow had his nose to the ground much of the time during the photo session! He is a very inquisitive fellow, and was obsessed with covering every square inch of the yard with his nose! He saw a dog through the gate and got extremely excited, wanting to go play with him. He is athletic and demonstrated it by climbing on our play equipment. He chases balls, but does not return them. He knows the sit and paw commands. He pottied in the yard. Gulliver is a friendly and sweet boy, and is more than happy to receive loving attention. It appears that his people are not interested in coming to reclaim so he's looking for a home in which he will be cherished, given plenty of TLC, and with people who will spend time daily playing with him, exercising him and giving him plenty of enrichment. Oh and did I mention that he does not wish to live as a backyard dog.
