hi. I have to find a new home for our dog. He is red nose pit and we suspect maybe American bulldog mix. He would make a great hunting dog with a little training. His name is Henry. He is really a good dog. We have 8 kids aging from 8 months to 18 and I would trust him alone with any of them. If you so much as raise your voice he drops to his back and bears his belly (submissive). He (was) house broken before we moved here in November but he's lived outside ever since but I'm sure he hasn't forgotten his manners. He loves to cuddle up and lay with us on the couch. He listens pretty well, better than some kids lol
However, we have a good chunk of land now so the dogs have their own yard they mostly keep to. While we have no issues trusting him with people, he can't be trusted with animals. he got to the pig in the pig pen once but luckily we were outside at the time and saved her without injury to her. he got at one of our other dogs and he got hurt. so we took that dog out. Tonight he busted through the fence and got to one of the sheep pretty bad. So he's living in the workshop locked away for now.
I really hate to do it but we can't keep him if he's going to keep getting to the other animals... he's got a real strong prey drive.
he is almost 2 years old in August. he's a big boy, I'd guess around 80-85 lbs and very solidly built. he would do best in a home with no other dogs, though he's fine with our cats. we also have a great pyrenees and he's very submissive to her, he knows mama is boss. so he's not SUPER dominant. he needs lots of exercise. he loves kids and has been raised since a puppy with babies and small kids. he is a big boy so I would recommend a little bigger kids since he's a little clumsy sometimes and can knock them over. but you can pull his ears or take his food away and he just looks at you like "I was hoping to eat that" a farm life would be great for him if you've got large livestock... he doesn't mess with the horses and would probably be fine with cows too.
we want to make sure he goes to a good loving home and not to fighting or bait dogs. you need to own your home or bring a written letter of consent from your landlord because I don't want to see an ad for him again because your landlord said you can't keep him. if you have any questions please email me your phone number and I will call you back.
