Bugsy is a one-year-old neutered male French Bulldog/Boston Terrier mix, brindle and white, 20-21 pounds who lives in the NY/NJ area. This pink-cheeked cuddlebug is also a dominant little guy. He's crate trained and has basic obedience training, he rings a bell that hangs on the front door when he wants to go out – and sometimes when he wants attention. This energetic cutie adores children and all other people, cats, some dogs, playing with toys, cuddling, and is a virtual lick-o-matic. He’s quite the clown, easily walks on his hind legs, still has the puppy crazies, and when he’s tired he often sleeps on his back and looks really weird! Bugsy will definitely make you laugh!
Bugsy needs to be an only dog, which is the reason he’s looking for a new home. Cats are okay, although they may be licked by this determined kisser. He’s used to living with someone who works at home, so Bugsy’s new mom or dad should be home based or be able to take him to work. Although he’s crate trained, he’s never been left in his crate for more than a couple of hours at a time. He’s housebroken, but again, he’s used to someone being responsive to his requests to go out by ringing his bell. Bugsy’s future home must have a fenced yard – but as with any flat-faced breed, he’s not an outdoor dog. This dog needs someone to love who is dog-savvy, can continue his obedience training, and most importantly, who will provide excellent veterinary care. Since he has a somewhat sensitive stomach, Bugsy must eat a specific diet food. Also, a home that will provide nice warm clothes would be appreciated by this goofy little dog; he has a thin coat and a low shivering threshold! Cuddling in bed with a human works well too…
Potential adopters please note:
Bugsy’s placement will require an interview, vet check, home check, donation to rescue, in-person pickup, regular communication with his prior family -- and a contract stating he must be returned to his prior family if things don't work out in his new home.
