Story
Meet Pike! This handsome 2-year-old American Bulldog mix is a social butterfly who never met a stranger. Pike absolutely loves attention and is happiest when he’s making new friends, whether they have two legs or four. In fact, he loves being around others so much that if left to his own devices, he may try to bust out of the yard in search of new buddies to hang out with! A secure yard with 6-foot fence or higher and supervision will help keep this friendly adventurer safe.Pike is a smart boy who is extremely food motivated, making training both easy and fun. He enjoys learning new things and would thrive with a family that wants to continue building on his skills. He also loves to play with other dogs, but because he has a rough-and-rowdy play style, he would do best with dog friends that are his size or larger.This goofy guy doesn’t quite realize how big he is, so a home without very small children would be best. However, Pike enjoys spending time with older kids who can keep up with his playful personality. If you’re looking for a loyal, outgoing companion who will keep life entertaining and full of love, Pike may just be your perfect match!
