Story

Montana was born in April of 2021. He was born from a litter of 7 healthy stronge American bullies. Although I believe Montana was the runt he’s had a Neapolitan complex. He thinks he is bigger than he actually is. Montana hasn’t gotten much social interaction so he is iffy about meeting new people which is my fault not able to give him those social Interaction and not being able to be with him as much but once he gets to know you he is a good boy. I’d appreciate if you give Montana the chance to steal your heart and give him the best loving home.

Woodbridge, NJ

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Bucky is a 3-4 year old French Bulldog who is our little sour patch kid. He’s very particular about what he likes and expects to be catered to a bit…what bulldog doesn’t. ? He was surrendered to a high kill shelter with multiple wounds and very skinny. This caused him to be fearful of the staff and earned him a spot on the euthanasia list. Luckily, we found him just in time! He is great with women and will let you do whatever you need to with him but it takes him longer to warm up to men. Because of his caution, he would do best in an adult only household. He does do well with other dogs and lived with cats previously. Bucky is neutered, microchipped and up to date on all his vaccinations. You can apply anytime on our website www.lonelypawsadoptions.org! If you would like to send something special to Bucky, you can shop our Amazon Wish List https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/37A4XL8JL2YCY?ref_=wl_share&tag=riatrotter-20 You can also make a monetary donation for him through our website, just make a note it’s for him! https://www.lonelypawsadoptions.org/page5.html If you can’t donate right now, please consider using the Rakuten app this holiday season with our link.
