About Po

Po is a 7-year-old bull terrier mix with a sweet and outgoing nature. He’s had a home before, but his resource guarding, especially around food, made it tough to share space with a toddler, so he’s back looking for the right fit. Po is genuinely affectionate and gets along well with cats, but he's selective with other dogs, so he'd do best as the only dog in the home. This guy is house trained, fully vetted, neutered, and up to date on vaccinations. He thrives in a stable environment with adults or older kids who understand boundaries around food. Life changes led Po back to the rescue, but he still has a lot of love to give. He adjusts well once settled and will make a loyal companion in a home that respects his space. Give him time to decompress, and you’ll see his friendly side shine. Ready to bring Po home? The adoption fee includes all veterinary care and lifetime support from the rescue.
