Meet Kane — 1 year old, an extremely people + dog friendly male bulldog/pitbull mix in need of a home!
Where did you get this dog?: I bought Kane from a family friend.
How long have you owned this dog?: 1 year
Why is the dog being given up?: My roommates at the time thought it would be a great idea to get a puppy, however, I was the one that actually ended up taking care of him. He is very sweet and energetic and it breaks my heart to have to surrender him because I consider him a family member. That being said, it is very hard for me to continue taking care of him in my small apartment now that he is too big to hide. With me working 2 jobs I don’t have the time to be able to give him the fulfilling lifestyle he deserves. I would love to see him go to a great home! He especially gets along really, really well with other dogs! (:

Are there children in the home?: Yes

How does the dog react to being left alone?: He’s fine, he’ll usually just curl up and go to sleep. Some days he likes to chew on things from boredom so he needs lots of toys!

What is the dog's favorite : He usually chews through most of his toys with ease so I wouldn’t recommend anything plush or soft. I get him hard toys that squeak or hard bones!
: Loves going for walks/runs. He also loves the lake being that he just found out he can actually swim! (: I just don’t let him get too far out
What does the dog like?: Playing with other dogs or even playing with his owner.
Please describe a typical day for your dog during the workweek (what time wake up, when eat, how many walks a day, where to -- dog parks, trails, neighborhoods, runs, etc), how long left home alone, what time to bed?: He’ll sleep until whenever I get up. As much energy he has, he’s equally lazy (LOL). I feed him every day around 11am and then again around 8pm. I try to walk him atleast once a day but unfortunately I don’t have enough time anymore to ensure he gets his fun time every day. For the most part, he’s usually alone all day until I get off work. He’ll go right to bed when I do.
Please provide a summary of the “ideal” home for your dog:: I would love him to go to a home with someone who has the time and patience to properly train him. Preferably a home that already has another medium sized/large dog that he cAn play with all day since he hates to be alone. It’d be great if it was a house with a nice sized backyard since he’s been cooped up in an apartment his whole life. And, a new owner(s) who is going to love him as much as I do!
