Gordo is a 69-pound American Bully mix with a big head and an even bigger heart. He’s a gentle, thoughtful, and quietly charming boy who melts into affection with a little baby talk and soft, loving hands. Gordo is a relaxed, low-energy dog who enjoys a good game of tug-of-war but can also entertain himself. He meets other dogs with friendly confidence, often observing from the sidelines rather than being the life of the party. If another dog gets too pushy, he handles it with grace by simply walking away or offering a gentle correction.
Ideal Home
Gordo would do best with dogs his size or larger, ideally a calm, aloof female who isn't looking for constant play. He would do best with older children as he continues to learn his best manners. No cats for Gordo.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions are mentioned in his listing.
Training & Support
Gordo has basic leash skills and is working on controlling his playful energy. He can be strong on leash due to his size, so he'll need a confident handler. He is very food motivated, which makes him eager to learn and respond well to positive reinforcement. He would benefit from a home familiar with bully breeds who can channel his enthusiasm into good habits.
