Squishy face and a soft spot for belly rubs... this is Gordo, and yes, his name fits him in the sweetest, most endearing way. He's about 69 lbs. of American Bully goodness, and while breed is our best guess, his vibe is unmistakable... gentle, thoughtful, and quietly charming. Gordo is a big 'ol baby who thrives on baby talk and affection. He's a relaxed, low-energy guy who enjoys a good game of tug-o-war but can also entertain himself. He meets other dogs with friendly confidence and prefers to observe rather than be the center of attention. If another dog gets too pushy, he handles it by walking away or offering a gentle correction. He would do best with dogs his size or larger, ideally a calm, aloof female. Gordo has basic leash skills but can be strong due to his size, so he'll need a confident handler. He is food-motivated and eager to please, making him a great candidate for further training.
Ideal Home
Gordo would do best with older children and no cats. He needs a steady, confident person who is familiar with bully breeds and understands how to channel his enthusiasm into good habits.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions were mentioned in the description.
Training & Support
Gordo needs continued practice with leash walking, as he can be strong due to his size. He is food-motivated and eager to learn, making him a great candidate for further training with someone familiar with bully breeds.
