Tommy American Bulldog Richmond, VA

Hi there, I’m Tommy, a 4-year-old, 60 lb., American Bulldog mix. I have a handsome white coat with a brown left ear that makes me stand out from the crowd. I’m a friendly and loyal boy who loves people and attention.

I came from Miami-Dade, Florida in 2020, thanks to Operation Save a Shelter Dog. They rescued me from the streets when I was very skinny and hungry, and a big storm was coming. They gave me a second chance at life and I’m so grateful for that.

I’m a smart and obedient boy who knows basic commands and walks well on a leash. I’m also crate-trained and housebroken. I love treats and I’m very food motivated, which helps motivate me when training. I’m always eager to please my humans and get praised for being a good boy.

I have some issues with other animals, though. Because of my past, I can be reactive to other dogs. I’ve been working on this, and I can tolerate dogs in small doses, but I need slow and careful introductions. I also have a strong prey drive, so I can’t live with small dogs, cats, or other critters. I need to be your only pet, please. I also guard my food, so I eat in my crate where I can feel safe. I’m fine with treats, though.

I’m good with older children who I can goof around with that will also play nicely with me. I love to goof around and have fun. I need a home with a savvy handler who can give me a job, practice my training, help me feel safe, and grow my confidence.

I’m up to date on vaccines, neutered, and in great health. I’m currently being fostered in Hampton, VA, but I can be transported out of state for the right home. If you are interested in adopting me, complete an application today! I can’t wait to meet you and start our new adventure together.
