Isabelle (Izzy) Daniels - American Bully and American Staffordshire Terrier Dog for Adoption in Boardman, Ohio

Meet Isabelle "Izzy" Daniels!

If you've ever wanted a dog that's built like a linebacker but convinced she's a lap dog, allow me to introduce myself.

I'm Izzy, an 11-month-old pocket-sized bully mix with short legs, a stocky little body, and enough personality to power a small city. At just 40 pounds, I'm the perfect lowrider package. Easy to fit on the couch, impossible to ignore.

My foster mom describes me as goofy, playful, and energetic. She also says I've brought organized chaos into her home, which sounds about right. I like to stay busy, stay involved, and stay right in the middle of whatever you're doing.

People are my favorite thing. New people? Love them. Old friends? Love them too. Kids? Absolutely. If you're willing to give me attention, I am fully prepared to become your biggest fan. I'm not shy, not reserved, and definitely not interested in playing hard to get.

I'm house trained, crate trained, and walk nicely on a leash. I know how to sit, and I know stay... I just occasionally feel that some rules are open to interpretation.

I get along well with other dogs and have even lived around cats and a chinchilla. While I enjoy playing with canine friends, I'm really here for the humans. Belly rubs, snuggles, adventures, quality control of household activities, I'm available for all of it.

My favorite toys are apparently whatever toy I'm currently chewing on, and I can happily entertain myself with a good bully stick. My smile is one of my best features too. Thanks to my adorable wonky teeth, I have a grin thats guaranteed to make you laugh.

I'm looking for an active family that wants a fun, happy dog to share life with. A fenced yard would be great, but more importantly, I want people who are ready to include me in the action. I'm still young, still learning, and still convinced that every day should be treated like the best day ever.

If you're looking for a petite bully with a big heart, a goofy smile, and enough personality to keep life interesting, I might just be your girl.

Love,
Izzy
