Meet Luda! Luda is a 1-year-old Shorty/Micro Bully (Bulldog mix) with the sweetest personality. He loves everyone he meets and does great with dogs and kids, though bigger kids are best since he’s still learning manners and gets excited/jumps on them. Luda has overcome a lot in his short life. He survived severe heat stroke when found and spent a few days at the emergency vet fighting for his life and later that week needed emergency surgery for a urethral prolapse. Because of his breed, he is very heat intolerant and must live in air conditioning with only short potty breaks outside. Potential adopters should also understand this breed can be prone to medical issues. Luda is young, playful, and loves toys. He’s mostly potty trained but may still have occasional accidents overnight in his kennel. He’s very clingy, loves being close to his people, and has endless cuddly love to give. Silly, sweet, and eager to learn, Luda is ready for a home where he can finally be the cherished family member he deserves. Luda is 40lbs but very small/short like a bulldog. His Ideally home would have another dog & not work long hours. They would be patient and know he has alot to learn.
