Meet Sousaphone, a 4-year-old female English Bulldog with a charming blue merle coat. If you've ever wanted a bulldog that's a champion napper and has an endearing obsession with plush toys, Sous is your girl. Her favorite pastime? Curling up in a cozy bed, often with a stuffed animal tucked under her chin as she suckles on it like a giant puppy. It’s a quirk that melts hearts. When she’s not perfecting her nap schedule, Sousaphone loves to make new friends and has been a hit at sleepovers, charming everyone who crosses her path. She’s a great cuddle buddy, enjoys car rides, and is quite the social butterfly. She has successfully navigated multiple overnight stays without accidents, walks beautifully on a leash, and knows how to take things at her pace when she's had enough walking for the day. Summer is when her personality really shines. Just give her a kiddie pool, and she’s blissfully at work supervising the neighborhood splashes. With 50+ successful playgroup experiences under her belt, she’s a gentle playmate who loves bouncing around with other dogs. However, due to her past, she prefers to enjoy her meals and toys in her own space. A family that understands this will be ideal for her. Sousaphone has had her share of medical hurdles, including surgery to ease her breathing, and she has a congenital cleft palate that currently does not affect her health. Required joint support helps keep her active during walks, and maintaining a healthy weight is key. Sous is affectionate, a bit stubborn—like a true bulldog—and ready for a family that appreciates cozy mornings and plenty of laughter. If you think a squishy couch companion who loves being a kiddie pool lifeguard sounds perfect for you, Sousaphone is eager to meet you!
