Dodge American Bulldog Hopkins, SC

Dodge is, hands down, one of the best natured dogs of the APL. He loves everyone and everything he meets- and expects everyone and everything to be the same towards him (…even though he has been bullied by a min-pin before.) Dodge is ALWAYS enthusiastic and happy and loving life. In his good natured-ness, he doesn’t realize he’s as strong as he is, though he is far politer on leash about it now. He is well mannered during car rides. He LOVES toys (…and will promptly defluff those with fluff and declare he is innocent of the “destruction” matter.)

Dodge is our dog tester, meaning that he gets along so well with dogs that we use him to test other dogs’ temperaments towards dogs with him. Due to his size, however, we are asking that homes with small dogs take him in at their discretion. He also gets along well with cats. Since Dodge loves everyone, he gets along great with kids, but younger kids he can (and has) knocked over. So we are asking that families with kids under 8 years old adopt him at their discretion.

Dodge is prone to bouts of dizziness (believed to be caused by inflammation of his brain,) which he is being treated for with a course of non-THC hemp oil and acupuncture. He has improved dramatically over the past few months! Before he would stumble (or even fall over) simply trying to turn. Now he is stable on his feet unless he shakes (or sometimes gets too excited.) His treatment is currently ongoing.
