English Bulldog and Pit Bull Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption

Meet Rocky!
Rocky is a sweet old man who likes the good things in life - quiet days resting on the couch, playing with his stuffies, and getting out for a daily walk with his people. Rocky is low energy and very affectionate, house trained, and a wonderful dog to come home to at the end of a long day at work. He can be a little shy at times - just needs a second and a few bribes and then he's your best friend! - so he would do best in an adult only home. He hasn't had too much interaction with other dogs but has previously met one small breed dog with no issues and shows no dog reactivity in the shelter setting.
