Gordo is a 69 lb. American Bully mix with a big head and a body perfect for hugs. He's a gentle, thoughtful, and quietly charming boy who melts into affection. Gordo's love language is baby talk, and he leans into soft, loving hands. He's a relaxed, low-energy dog who enjoys playtime 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 giving a gentle correction. He would do best with dogs his size or larger, ideally a calm, aloof female.
Ideal Home
Gordo would do best in a home with older children. He is not a good fit for homes with cats. He needs a steady, confident person who understands how to channel his enthusiasm into good habits.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions are mentioned.
Training & Support
Gordo has basic leash skills and is working on controlling his goofy side. He can be strong on leash due to his size and needs a confident handler. He is very food motivated and eager to learn, responding well when training is made fun and engaging. Someone familiar with bully breeds who can channel his enthusiasm would be ideal.
