Dara II (foster)

American Bulldog

Female, 5 yrs 2 mos
Cleveland, OH
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats,
Story
Dara is a hoot, but also a homebody, and she is the type of girl who would love to be in her jammies back at home by 8pm. Currently living in a foster home, Dara has shown that she is a great cuddler whose favorite place might just be bundled up in bed. She will even bark to let you know when it`s bedtime and she wants a snuggle. She`s not totally lazy, though. She has a nice, moderate activity level, with bursts of silly zoomie energy on occasion. She enjoys walks and hikes, and is working on being a tugboat on leash - she will at least help you up the hills. Her signature move is wriggling her dumpling self around on her back, partly for the joy of it and partly in case you want to give her belly rubs. Dara could be a little timid meeting new people and visiting new places at first, and she`s really come into her own and her goofy personality shines in a home environment. So if you too feel like a bit of an introvert and are looking for a kindred spirit, Dara is your gal. She is also good in her crate, and totally housebroken. She is estimated to be around 4 years old and she weighs a chonky 82 lbs.Visit www.tinyurl.com/meetacitydog to schedule a meet!

Meet lovable, huggable Maxie! This pretty girl is a charming mix of affectionate, attentive and athletic.

She is lots of fun in the yards frolicking around, and sometimes even likes to carry a favorite toy with her on a walk. She strikes a nice balance of enjoying activity as well as chill time, ideally right by your side. She lights up with attention and is quite engaging. She knows how to sit, takes treats gently, and seems to know to do her business outside. Maxie has been social greeting other dogs in play group as well.Miss Maxie is estimated to be around 2.5 years old and weighs 56 lbs.

Male, 2 yrs 8 mos
Cleveland, OH
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats,
Story
Meet mister Mannix! This handsome pup is friendly and outgoing, quick to make new friends. He`s ready to be someone`s sidekick! He`s a smart boy who listens well and is eager to please, as you can guess from his earnest smiles. Mannix is a beefy, strong pup weighing in at 63 lbs, but volunteers consistently observe that is is a pretty easy walker. He also knows how to sit, and consistently keeps his kennel clean, so we guess he is housebroken.Mannix is also a big sweetie, and he likes taking plenty of cuddle breaks. He might just drape himself right across your lap for pets, too. For his play group assessment with other dogs, he was playful with rowdy style. Mannix is estimated to be around 2 years old. He`s ready to meet you! Visit www.tinyurl.com/meetacitydog to set up a meet!
