About Mickey

Mickey is a showstopper, plain and simple. This 3.5-year-old English Bulldog mix spent his early days scrounging for scraps, but that's behind him now. His foster family helped him recover from hunger and eye infections, and these days you’ll find a sturdy, 80-lb sweetheart who basks in every bit of attention. Mickey charms hardware store shoppers, gleefully rides with his nose out the car window, and adores his foster family—especially the 8-year-old, who Mickey follows around with big, smitten eyes. Sometimes, when he’s feeling sad, he’ll let out Chewbacca-like cries that are impossible not to laugh at. He’s polite on leash, content to sleep through the night in his crate, and gets along with most dogs, though his big presence can overwhelm smaller pups. Mickey would thrive as an only dog, soaking up all the love. He is house trained, vaccinated, and neutered. Mickey is undergoing treatment for heartworms, and his rescue will handle all costs with their partner vet. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
