Story
Got this great boy as a small pup. He very lovable likes to cuddle up with you he loves attention. He is very well potty trained. As much as it pains me to let him go because I have been going back and forth in mind with decision for quite a while under my circumstances I feel it's best. I would be satisfied in my heart if he goes somewhere with a loving family or person. Where he can be the best he can be. He truly deserves it.

Meet Maverick & Kobe 🐾 These two 6‑year‑old purebred American Bulldog brothers have been together since birth, and we’re hoping to keep them together. We’ve had them since they were seven weeks old and are seeking to re-home them due to relocation. Maverick (85 lbs) is energetic, curious, friendly, and full of love. Kobe (100 lbs) is smart, loyal, and protective with a calm, steady presence. They balance each other beautifully and are looking for a safe, loving home where they can stay side‑by‑side. 💙

This shows he is sociable and adaptable. King has been neutered and is up to date on his shots. King enjoys belly rubs, and being close to those who give love.

Story
Falcor was roughly 2 years old when I received him in 2018, i've had him for the past 8 years These past 8 years with Falcor has been amazing with my other great pyrenees and 2 cats. 3 years ago my husband and I decided to start a family and since have had 2 beautiful boys Due to the young age of my children and the fact that he is a senior dog We are starting to feel uneasy with him around them He seems very agitated around the little ones and I understand it's due to him wanting to relax and be left alone but unfortunately that is not an option in the house any longer. We would love to ideally keep him forever But if we can find a better suited house for him to make him more comfortable than that would be best. Falcor is a good boy, and if we could find him a home where there are no small children, and where someone is available to give him the love an affection he deserves we would be eternally grateful.
