About Tow Mater

Meet Tow Mater! Rescued with his mother last March, Mater’s early life was rough—he was likely let go by an unscrupulous breeder, left underfed, and kept in a crate that stunted his growth. He battled a tough respiratory illness but has bounced back and is thriving now. Mater is a one-year-old bulldog mix with a short gray-blue coat and a distinctive, endearing walk caused by Rickets stemming from poor puppy nutrition. Despite his history, his outlook is bright: his tail never stops wagging, and he’s so easygoing with other dogs that every meeting is a new friendship. Mater is not a fit for apartment living—his bark is deep and carries. He hasn’t lived with cats, but his friendly, laid-back nature suggests he should do well. House and crate training are done and dusted. All vaccines are current; he’s neutered, microchipped, heartworm negative, and on regular preventatives. Meetings can be set up locally in Stockbridge, GA, or, for approved adopters, he can travel out of state (transport costs apply). Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
