Meet Tommy
Hi! My name is Tommy!
ARE YOU A BOY OR A GIRL?
I’m a boy!
HOW OLD ARE YOU?
Somewhere between two and three years old.
WHAT BREED ARE YOU?
I am a big, beautiful Mastiff mix.
HOW MUCH DO YOU WEIGH?
About 100 pounds
WHAT DO YOU LOOK LIKE?
I’m tan with a black mask and it looks like I’m wearing eyeliner. I am a stunningly handsome gentleman, if I do say so myself!
WHAT DO YOU LIKE TO EAT?
It is safe to say I am not picky. I will eat anything you offer, but I also understand that it is important to watch my weight due to my size and the pressure on my joints, so I shouldn’t overindulge!
WHAT KIND OF PERSONALITY DO YOU HAVE?
I’m a little timid toward new things and people, which is pretty typical of my breed. I have been told that I am a little bit like a headstrong teenager who needs to be given boundaries to understand that I can’t jump up on people. If I do jump up, I am responsive to gentle corrections and I am trainable if you have patience with me.
DESCRIBE YOUR PERFECT DAY:
My perfect day consists of food, naps, a nice walk, and lots of playtime with my doggy friends.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE TOY?
All of them, but especially my bones, like a Nylabone, Benebone or a good sturdy Kong.
DO YOU KNOW ANY TRICKS?
I am a smart boy! I know sit, shake and down. I also know where my bed is if you tell me to go there. I’m working on stay.
WHAT SCARES YOU?
I am uncomfortable with strangers in my house and I do not do well with lots of people and activity like parties. I prefer quiet and not many people coming and going. If there is a lot of activity, I am happy to hang out in a safe space, like a crate, with a yummy bone or treat-filled Kong toy.
HAVE YOU BEEN AROUND CHILDREN?
I need to be in a home without children, neither in residence nor visiting. Kids are unpredictable and don’t understand boundaries. I get nervous when kids get in my space and that is just not a situation you want to put me OR a child in!
DO YOU LIKE CATS?
No cats for me, thank you!
HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT OTHER DOGS?
I love, love, love other dogs.
IF YOU COULD BE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD, WHERE WOULD IT BE?
Oh, I love to lay on the couch next to my human. I am happy to do whatever you like to do. A nice quiet night hanging out at home is pretty much my idea of heaven.
HOW IS YOUR HEALTH?
I’m a perfectly healthy boy!
WHERE DO YOU HANG OUT WHEN YOU ARE HOME ALONE?
I dig my crate. It’s like a man cave!
WHERE DO YOU SLEEP?
Also in my crate!
DO YOU LIKE WALKING ON A LEASH?
I love walks! I’m very well-mannered on leash.
DO YOU HAVE ANY “NOT SO GREAT” HABITS THAT WE SHOULD KNOW ABOUT?
I know I mentioned this before in the earlier questions about my personality and my fears, but I want to make sure to explain myself clearly. I am SUCH a great guy, but I need someone who is experienced with large breed dogs that can give me the structure and support I need to live a peaceful, happy life. If I get mouthy when I get stressed or excited, I need you to understand that I am not being aggressive, but I do need to be given proper guidance to settle down. I don’t want kids coming around me when I have a toy or a bone, I don’t want to be overwhelmed with lots of people loudly partying around me, and I don’t want strange people coming in and out of my space making me feel insecure. If I am in a quiet, low-traffic home with one or two favorite humans (and a dog or two would be cool too) loving me, I will be the best boy you could ever want.
ARE YOU HOUSE TRAINED (DO YOU GO POTTY OUTSIDE)?
Yes I am!
DO YOU LIKE WATER?
I was able to play with the hose before a bath one time, that was a lot of fun! And bath time was so relaxing-I’ll do spa day anytime! As for sprinklers…I’m not sure about them yet. They’re a little intimidating.
WHAT WAS YOUR LIFE LIKE BEFORE BEING BROUGHT INTO NORCAL BULLY BREED RESCUE?
I don’t really remember any of that. Because life is so wonderful now, it’s about moving forward and not looking back. Now I am really looking forward to finding my forever family who understands my large breed temperament and will keep me in a safe environment. I really am worth it… I promise!
