My story

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

Name, age, breed: Bulldozer, 2 years, American Bulldog mix

Likes: Playing, toys, and routine

Dislikes: Unknown

What would be the ideal home? An experienced dog owner, with breed specific experience who can give him a routine and meet his high energy needs

Good with other cats? Unknown

Good with dogs? Possibly with proper introduction

Temperament: Playful, stubborn, independent

How long will it take to settle into a new environment? 3-3-3 rule: First 3 days - Your dog may be overwhelmed and may hide, have a lack of appetite, or test boundaries. Give them space and time to adjust in a quiet room with their bed, food, water, and toys. 3 weeks - Your dog may start to settle in and their personality will emerge. You can expect behavior issues to arise, so set boundaries and expectations with positive reinforcement training. 3 months - Your dog should be comfortable and acclimated to your home. They should know their routine and expect meals and enrichment at specific times.

Any special needs or traits an adopter should know? Bulldozer is a dog with a big personality and an even bigger heart. True to his breed, he can be stubborn and determined, often preferring to do things his own way. This independent streak makes him confident and spirited, but it also means he sometimes needs extra patience and consistency in training.

Despite his headstrong nature, Bulldozer is deeply loyal and thrives when he feels secure and understood. He enjoys routines and responds well to clear boundaries, showing his best side when guidance is firm but kind. His playful energy and curiosity keep life interesting he’s quick to explore, test limits, and remind everyone that he’s full of character.

Bulldozer’s behaviour reflects a dog who knows his mind: strong-willed, resilient, and occasionally mischievous. Yet beneath that determination lies a companion who values connection and rewards those who invest in him with affection and trust. He’s not just a pet; he’s a presence — one that brings joy, laughter, and a touch of challenge to every day.

Bulldozer is on Fluoxetine for anxiety.
