Gordo is a 69 lb. American Bully mix with a squishy face and a love for belly rubs. He's a gentle, thoughtful, and quietly charming boy who melts into affection. He's a relaxed, low-energy dog who enjoys playing tug-of-war but can also entertain himself. Gordo is friendly and confident with other dogs, preferring to observe rather than be the center of attention. He handles pushy dogs by walking away or offering a small correction. He would do best with dogs his size or larger, ideally a calm, aloof female who isn't looking for constant play.
Ideal Home
Gordo would do best with older children and would prefer a home without cats. He needs a steady, confident person who can guide him on leash and help him continue to develop good habits.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions are mentioned in the listing.
Training & Support
Gordo has basic leash skills but can be strong due to his size, requiring a confident handler. He is food motivated and eager to learn, responding well to engaging and fun training. He benefits from someone familiar with bully breeds who can channel his enthusiasm.
