My name is Skillet!

ADOPTION RETURN: Foster Needed / No Cats

Animal Profile: Skillet was adopted from DGS in March of 2025 and is a 2.5-year-old bully breed mix with a big heart and even bigger enthusiasm for life. She’s friendly with people and absolutely loves to play, but her joyful, ruff-and-tumble play style can be a bit much for more reserved dogs. Unfortunately, this has made it difficult for her to thrive in her current home, as the resident dog is uncomfortable with her exuberance. With additional family moving in with cats (which Skillet is not compatible with), the difficult decision was made to rehome her so she can have her needs fully met.

Skillet has had some e-collar training and is both house-trained and crate-trained. She recently underwent TPLO surgery and is recovering beautifully. While she would happily play with every dog she meets, Skillet has that classic “bull in a china shop” body awareness and her playful style isn’t for everyone! Because of this, she would do best with a bully-breed-savvy family, either as an only dog or with a well-matched, balanced male dog.

Skillet has not lived with children, but due to her high energy and enthusiasm, we recommend a home with kids ages 12 and up. With the right environment, guidance, and understanding, Skillet will make a fun, loving, and loyal companion.
