Bullmastiff puppies and dogs in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

PLEASE NOTE! Unless stated otherwise, our dogs and puppies are located in Arkansas, and transported to the north/northeast once adopted. We do occasionally have dogs/puppies placed in foster homes in the north/northeast. In the cases where the pet is somewhere other than Arkansas, it will be noted beside the name of the pet.Johnny I dont know if I've ever seen a more beautiful dog. Johnny is a Neapolitan Mastiff (possibly mixed?) who is about 2 years old and weighs 120 lbs. He is the sweetest, big slobbery dummy! He thinks hes a 10 lb baby and wants to sit on your lap. He is super friendly with everyone he meets, but he has no idea how big he is, so probably wouldnt be the best choice for a family with toddler size humans. He is so kind hearted and wouldn't dream of hurting anyone on purpose. Hes just big and clumsy and hasn't had any training. We are gonna work on the training part as soon as he recovers from his neuter surgery, which was done today. Johnny was found as a starving stray in Arkansas. His stray hold is long over and no one ever came forward to claim him. He had no ID and no microchip. His rescue photo, which shows the condition he was in, is attached. He holds no grudges for his past neglect and hardships. He loves and trusts everyone. Since coming into rescue, he hasn't been introduced to many other dogs, but the limited exposure he has had was positive anf he gave no indication of aggression. We will be exploring that more now that he is neutered. I believe with proper introduction, he will do fine with other non aggressive dogs. Johnny was fully vetted today and thankfully he tested negative for heartworms. He does have the very loose skin typical of Neo Mastiffs, which may require surgery later in life. As of now, our vet didn't feel it was necessary. His eyelids droop but they don't cover his eyes and he is fully visual. But as he ages, this may need to be revisited. Johnny is definitely one of a kind, and he is not a dog that is found in rescue very often. I hope he will get adopted quickly so he can start to get adjusted to his new life and family of his own. Hes a total catch!Johnny is located in Arkansas. He can be adopted locally, but transport is available to the New England area as well.

After a few months of trying, she turned me into a shelter in WV. Unfortunately Grandma didn't know it was a High Kill Shelter. YIKES! Double YIKES!! Fortunately, word went out far and wide, SAVE SHEILA, SAVE SHEILA! Cries were heard and I'm now in a loving foster home in Dillsburg. Got other doggie friends here to show me the ropes and I'm doing fine per foster mom/dad.  I did get my Christmas wish and was adopted, but sadly, I was returned ON CHRISTMAS! Not the gift I was looking for. The family, though nice, didn't know their abilities to walk a gal with energy. Yes, I admit I need walking skills yet, but foster mom, though old and gray, is able to walk me NO ISSUES. Guess we all are different. So, here's my story, Sad to be returned but that perfect family is out there!  Good with other dogs, people, children (not toddlers) I do admit my 'Zest for Life' does get the better of me with excitement with life it's self! Smart as a whip already knowing sit, down, give both paws, am crate trained & house trained, I do have a little stubborn streak thrown in for good measures! Now learning Patients, Sit and Wait at door and to eat. I do pull on a leash, but can learn or use of a Halti would stop that no problem.  NO Way am I going to be protective. So far I've shown only friendliness, kiss giving and a 'Lets Party Attitude' to new people.  My recall has improved but a Physical Fence/Underground Fence would be best for me. I am VERY FOOD MOTIVATED!  Life is short let's Start the New Year with a BANG Together!  Interested in meeting me?  Complete an on-line application at www.CastawayCritters.org/adopt.
