About Storm

Meet Storm, a 4.5-year-old American Bully who came from a rural North Carolina shelter, pregnant and heartworm positive. She has since raised her pups, all now in loving homes, been spayed, and finished her heartworm treatment. Storm weighs about 52 pounds and has a sweet, gentle nature. She’s currently living in foster care with dogs of various sizes and gets along well with them. She also does well with children. A cat-free home is a must, as Storm does not get along with cats. She's a bit wary around men and prefers to keep her distance, but she finds her crate a safe place and will retreat there for comfort. Storm needs a patient family willing to let her settle in and understand she’ll need time to adjust to a new environment and expectations. For families ready to give a loyal, loving companion a real shot at a dedicated home, Storm could be your perfect fit. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
