Story
Zelda is a stunning 1-year-old, 85-pound XL Bully with a rare merle coat and an even more beautiful personality. She is looking for a loving forever home with someone who is familiar with her breed and committed to continuing her training and socialization.
Zelda absolutely loves people. She is affectionate, happy, eager to please, and greets everyone with kisses, a wiggly butt, and her famous giant tail that never seems to stop wagging. Everyone who meets her falls in love with her sweet nature.
Her rescue story is one we'll never forget. Zelda was found abandoned in the desert, scared and unsure of people. For a week, we returned every day to feed her and slowly earn her trust. When it came time to rescue her, our trapper set a humane trap. Within five minutes, Zelda walked right inside. As soon as we opened the door, she calmly walked out, wagging her huge tail, giving kisses, and gently taking treats from our hands. It was as if she knew she was finally safe.
Sadly, no one ever came looking for Zelda. She wasn't microchipped, and we can only assume she was abandoned instead of being taken to a shelter. Since coming into our rescue, she has been spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, and is now fully vetted and ready to begin her new life with a family who will never let her down again.
Zelda has been introduced to two large male Bullies and did wonderfully, greeting them with nonstop tail wags and friendly body language. She is not a good fit for a home with cats and would do best in a home without small pets. Because of her size and strength, she will do best with an experienced owner who understands the XL Bully breed.
XL Bullies are known for being loyal, affectionate, and devoted companions. With consistent training, regular exercise, and continued socialization, they make wonderful family members. Zelda is still young and eager to learn. She can be strong on leash, but she is incredibly people-oriented and truly wants to please her person.
She quickly became a favorite at our veterinary clinic during her vaccination and spay appointments. The staff couldn't stop admiring her unique beauty and friendly personality, and everyone wanted to come over to pet her.
The only thing dangerous about Zelda is that giant tail that wags at the speed of light—so watch your knees!
