Story
Dabi is still looking for his forever home. 1 year old American Bully (only about knee high) This boy has been with us for over a year now and is still waiting for his forever home! Dabi was born with a spinal defect and originally lost his ability to walk…which he has now regained. He runs, plays, and climbs but does still walk a little weird. Does enjoy walks but not for extremely long amounts of time. He absolutely loves to play with toys and cuddling with his family. He is super sweet but can be a bit mouthy. He does get frustrated easily from time to time but other than that, he just has a normal bully attitude. He is currently in a home with cats and other dogs (large and small), but definitely needs slow introductions as he is on the dominant side. He is very strong and needs an experienced handler.
